Lines of business are ways that businesses gain revenue. For Vice, their business lines are multiple categories for their audiences. Each business line caters to different business and media. These are treated as if they have their own audience, but people often cross over. Vices business lines: Vice Media -This is where they post online content on Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, etc. Vice Studios – They do films and documentaries with no hidden content. They say it as it is. There are no concerns about offending comments or footage, etc Vice TV – Here they do tv shows for young adults […]

Premier pro editing skills
Why is editing important Editing is the final touch on filmmaking, correcting mistakes and engaging the audience. Without it, you may not be as invested in the story, characters or events taking place. It is a great way to eliminate mistakes and take out boring unnecessary footage that is not needed. I will do a lot of editing in my vlog so that it is not too long for my audience to watch and to keep their attention focused on what is important. Pacing Pacing is the rate & flow of any movements/events. By changing the length of shots/amount of […]
Concept Design
Concept art helps to convey the look, feel and mood of a design idea. It is used to capture and share the overall design vision before anything goes into production, versus trying to express everything in specific terms. SMART 1: vlog idea using time until next week, research Alton Towers and research until the 2nd week of May. Use Wikipedia to research Alton Towers. SMART 2: animation (back up) Using time today in a lesson, learn how to animate using custom paths and do the custom path animation by the end of the lesson. Possible storyboard for the animation: It […]

Production Management
I made a schedule for my culture brief: I decided to split this up into weeks and put each task on the left to see which ones I need to complete. I have highlighted each box to show how long a certain task would take and I can tick things off. This should make time management easier for me. Yellow boxes are each task, red boxes are animation, blue boxes are filming for the vlog. SWOT analysis Strengths I feel my strengths are organisation, good memory, I listen and do my best. Weaknesses I feel I need more motivation to […]
Culture Research
When we think of culture, we automatically think of different people from all around the world and how they dress and look. However, culture can mean a lot of things, it could also be very personal to an individual. Culture can be described as the way of life of a certain group of people; it could be their customs, ideas, beliefs, values, outlook, attitudes, morals, goals, social behaviours, and arts of a particular group of people or society. These are normally passed along from one generation to another, normally by communication or imitation. Culture could be displayed in festivals, […]
Generating Ideas
My chosen culture is theme parks and here are some ideas I have come up with: I could either make an animation or a vlog at a theme park like Alton Towers for my production project. I am very much interested in making a vlog as I am a thrill seeker who loves roller coasters so it would be great to visit a park, film them, talk about them, and hopefully get to ride some. If I have the time it would be good to incorporate animation with my vlog. This way I can showcase my skills I have learnt […]

Culture moodboard
For a mood board, we drew four things that were about things we like. Things like favourite possessions, hobbies, places, and people. Here are the things I drew for each one: My drawing of my gaming pc for favourite possession as I use it every day to play games on and do work on: My drawing of a video game controller for the favourite hobby as I enjoy playing video games a lot: My drawing of a house for my favourite place as I enjoy staying at home: I didn’t draw them but Masahiro Sakurai for a favourite person as […]
My Culture Representation
Stereotypes are the common representation of something and can describe things quickly. But these can be dangerous as people can generalise about things and cause offence to people. Examples of stereotypes in the UK are: being smartly dressed, drink tea, polite, queueing, speak Queen’s English, it’s always raining, only speaking English, and the food being bland and inedible. We are famous for our fish and chips. English people like to binge drink and drink a lot of alcohol and get drunk especially on holiday which caused a bad representation of English people. I played a game of geoguesser where we […]
