post-modernism
Post modernism is the idea that nothing is new and we are just the same text as before. Making things which are old and emerging them together to make something new.
An example of a post-modernism, bringing different pieces and putting something together to make a post modernised text.
These text are all post-modenised, it is easy to spot a post modernised text because they are different, something that you have not seen before.

Ideology
I don't think women have been presented in a negative way through my music video, I actually feel that it has made women look even more courageous than what some people firstly think. One part of my music video is focusing on a girl who is skydiving. This is a different aspect on being brave; instead of something happening and then having to be brave, the girl has put herself in that situation where she has to be brave. This then could improve make the point of women being brave even stronger.
This music video also does not represent women in a sexual way, more music videos these days does represent people this way and it makes the men look more powerful. I don't like the way women seem to always be represented as the subject and that they never seem to have any importance. I have focused more on women in the music video and have put them into different views of light.

- A skydiver
- Main act
- Ringing mum
These are a range of ways that women have been represented and they all show different scenarios of being brave. Women can be stereotyped as not being brave; the ones that hide away and let the men face the fear. This is not true and I wanted to express that; changing the way women are perceived.
I decided not to leave this music video for just women, so I decided to add a scene of a male who was being brave. This scene of being brave was a man walking up a ladder but he was scared of heights, this man was brave because he walked up the ladder despite his fear.

Audience feeback
After I had finished my music video I wanted to get some audience feedback of what they thought and what could be better.
Laura:
I enjoyed the video. I like the way that the video shows the different scenarios of people being brave. It makes it feel more personal and something that I can relate to. If I could suggest something to add, it would be to add some text onto the video.
Ian:
I thought the video it was good, I felt that it was interesting with the different stories. If i could make an improvement it would be to sort out a small section of the lip syncing.
Emma:
I liked the song, it was upbeat and something that easy to dance to. I would have chosen braver scenes though.
Rianna:
I really like the video, I like all of the different parts to it.
After getting this audience feedback it has helped me a lot, I can see some of the good points about the video and some of the things that I could improve on. Although the coursework has finished has it can't be changed it is good to reflect back on what I have done and see what could have made it better. The audience feedback has things which is good about the video and different things I could improve on.
From part of the improvement feedback was to sort out the lip syncing. This is something that I noticed that needed improving once I had finished the video. I think some of it was down to the video sometimes lagging. I am happy to take on board any comments and to work on them for the next time, I do something like this.

Music Video
This is my music video; I now feel that it is finished. I am happy about making this video because I have never done anything like this and I had not done media before. Something that was difficult was editing; this did take some time to understand but once I got the hand of it, I was happy. I know that while doing this music video, I struggled to stick to an idea. This did then cause me to struggle nearer the end. I do feel that the idea I have used it much better than some of the other ideas. Having a story board helped me very much and I now feel from that, it helped me get my filming and editing done much quicker, If I had to do this again, I would make sure I had a plan set in stone and I had made a storyboard. I know that there are some improvements and changes that could be made if I did it again, but I am happy with the progress I made and the final outcome.

Magazine poster
Here is my magazine poster for my music video; I have added a bit of color in it, but i have kept the main attention to he person and the name. I looked at different poster and they didn't seem to have too much information on and they all stuck to the key information. This is what I tried to do.

DIGI PACK
Thursday, 23 January 2014
DIGI PACK
Here is my digi pack; for the song 'Brave'. To do this digi pack, I used a website called Pic monkey. I found this website great to use because you could edit the picture very easily and in many different ways. I would definetely use this website again when editing any pictures. I decided to use a couple of pictures because I didn't want to fill the CD with them all. I then decided to go for a galaxy theme; which I think works very well.

How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary tasks?
This is my main product:
These are my ancillary tasks:
By having the ancillary tasks with the main task it feels more personal. You are bringing everything together to represent the overall package once each aspect is connected to the other. I feel that the video was effective, but once I added the tasks I felt that it became a united collection and that ithe combination worked well together. Every task enhanced the image of my coursework. I do not feel that the music video would have been as effective if I did not have the ancillary tasks.
The pictures in my Ancillary tasks don't represent being Brave. The reason for this is because that there are other songs in the album and I wanted to have a neutral poster and DIGI pack, which portrayed this.
I find that it is important for my tasks to be effective because people would not be interested in any of them. Each task has to be effective in it's own way. A Poster must catch the eye of somebody to be effective because you cannot hear this music and you cannot really get to know the artist. This is why the poster is not too effective on its own. The DIGI pack also needs to be effective; something eye catching is important because how else are you going to get people looking? I have a lot of colour on my DIGI pack and I feel for this reason, many people would have a look it and would find it appealing to the eye. This is effective combined but not very effective on it's own. Although it more effective than the poster. The music video is he key parts, it is bringing everything together and it is the highlight of the whole album. People are going to buy that album because of the video.
After asking people what they thought of how effective I got these results:

- I my opinion I believed that the task would work well together if they stayed together on their own, as they would be other be placed together for them all to see the effects of it becoming an advantage.
- I don't think that they are very effective because they don't represent being brave on the Ancillary tasks
- I think being effective is something to strive for
After getting this feedback I now know what other people think about the effectiveness of the tasks. I got some feedback saying that the tasks don't work well together with the song Brave.
