Blog feedback and LR

 WWW: It’s great that your blog is set up and your fruit bowl is fantastic – you’ve really captured the Autumn colour palette brilliantly. I also like your denotation and connotation work – you are already discussing connotations confidently and that gives us plenty to build on for the rest of the course.

EBI: Currently, you have one piece of work missing – the introductory questions. The first priority is to make sure the following is completed and posted to your blog:

LR: Post the missing work.

Reflect on your first month of Media. What do you feel is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?

I think my strongest piece of work so far is the denotation and connotation task as I think I successfully answered the questions and i could analyse the articles properly as i understood the task. I think my weakest task so far is the Mise-en-scene because i haven't finished it yet and it isn't very detailed. The skills I think I need to develop over the rest of the course are editing skills and concentration and the knowledge that I need to learn is how media works and how people create content to become media creators.

Audience effects theory

Audience effects theory: blog tasks 1) Write a definition of a  passive  audience:   This is the view that audiences  passively  take in information from the media and that these messages have the same effect on everyone. 2)  Write a definition of an  active  audience:  This is the more modern and generally accepted view that audiences  interact  with and make conscious choices regarding the media they consume. 3) Write a definition of the  hypodermic needle  theory:  This is the suggestion that audiences are always  passive  and therefore take the intended message from the producer as if it was injected into their minds. This assumes no individual difference in audience members.  4) Write down a  media product  (e.g. TV show, newspaper or video game)   for each category of Blumler and Katz's Uses and Gratifications theory and  WHY  it fits that particular audience use/grat...
