The Guardian and Daily Mail audiovisual elements in websites

 Convergent links and audiovisual content

The Guardian

 https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/video/2020/oct/29/god-and-the-gop-will-conservative-evangelicals-stay-loyal-to-trump-video

Carefully selected editing

Use of language and how the Guardian selects and constructs values and ideologies.

Use of white Evangelists for eg

Very carefully constructed. 

Extreme stereotypes interviewed - white Evangelist preacher, reported by young Asian journalist. 

Daily Mail TV syndicated American platform

Almost represents Trump as a king, no editing, no cutting. He appears very presidential, flags, desks, chair he appears almost like royalty promoting himself, still bemoaning election.

Halfway Evaluations

Halfway evaluations are a really good way of looking at some of your work, finding out where you're going with it and giving you some feedback. We need to get a really good idea of what your final product is going to look like. 

For Wednesday 11th November please provide a presentation including the following:

Slides should include

• What is your industry and brand and how does it fit together?
• Genre - protest, doc, news (how are you going to fit the conventions)
• 1 minute music video/doc/front covers and contents draft
• Website
• Audio visual idea
• Social media
• How are you going to target your audience?
• What do you still need to do?

An explanation of your cross media branding and what you are still to include in your productions. Mrs Field and I will go through each of these one afternoon and be able to provide you with feedback.

Advertising questions

For advertising, students could be asked to answer on a set advert, an unseen advert for a similar product, or a comparison of a set advert to an unseen advert for a similar product.  Questions on set adverts are likely to reproduce the advert in the paper. 

 

10 mark questions are likely to be AO1 (explain) questions so would focus on a set advert (as in the practice paper), and 15 mark questions are likely to be AO2 (analyse) questions so would be on an unseen advert either on its own (as in the 2019 paper) or compared to a set advert.

Magazines as part of a cross-media brief: • layout • typography • use of language • use of images.

The research for the magazines set in Component 01, Section B could lead into the drafting of a layout for the front cover of a new magazine followed by a photography session, producing a set of marked up contact prints for the cover.

Set up mini studio areas and take macro photos of the products. Control lighting and focus. Import photos into Photoshop. Demonstrate basic features of Photoshop (or any other image manipulation software you are using), making sure they understand layers, the magic wand, layer styles, text tool etc. Use the magic wand to cut accurately around the photo of the product (made easier because of the plain fabric background); source a suitable background image from the internet to add meaning to the product; devise a slogan or tagline and select an appropriate font (perhaps using www.Dafont.com or www.fontspace.com); experiment with adding shadow to the product or an effect to the text; try using the dropper tool to change the text colour to something cohesive with the images; experiment with the masking tool.

Draw up a rough layout first, then use Photoshop, InDesign etc. to create the cover digitally. Design a new masthead; consider carefully what the sell lines might be; take the cover photo(s) considering how the subject is represented (shot size and angle, lighting, facial expression, colour palette, make up, background, clothing etc. will all have an effect on how the figure is represented, anchored by the text) Remember to consider the price, to include a barcode, date and a web address. These activities may be published (physically or online) and submitted as a preliminary activity.
