Week 2

- Do?

This week, we learned about Tourism ads (conform and subvert), Genres, and Semiotics.

- Problems

I still have problems on noticing details in media  that conform or subvert.

- Solutions

I can go back to finding the genre convention and see whether they have the common features that conform to the genre

- To do

Week 2

- Do?
In this week, we have learned about Tourism ads, Genre, and Semiotics. 
- Problems
Understanding signs can be challenging as there are many meanings which makes it difficult to chose an answer but, other than that,  for me problems are still less likely to face.
- Solutions
For my problem, the only way I can understand signs is watch scenes with multiple signs and research deep down about the signs they've used to present in the scenes. 
- To do 
-HW-Research
Week 3
- What progress have you made on your project? 
Statement of intent: So far we've manage to discover the target audience and the planning of our tourism ad.

Research: So far I've only finished finding tourism ads and some questioned answer for the analysis.
Week 4
- We learned about making storyboards and creating location scouts for our project. So far we've managed to find places but it will take a lot of days to get these footages
- We also learned few more things like different types of camera shots and sounds for building suspense and meaning to the media footage. 
Week 5
- We learned about  different types of sounds, mise-en-scene and editing in a film. This was really fun to learn but i still need to understand further into the effects and how they are used. By the end of the quiz we had a mini quiz on camera shots, sounds, and camera movement. We also got a short explanation about how clappers work for filming.
- In the end of the week, we've managed to create a filming schedule to help us guide through our tourism project. But because we like to procrastinate, our project is quit off. 
To do:
- Start finishing the project's worksheets (Statement of Intent, Filming Schedule, Location Scout.)

This week we did a short quiz and i scored 23/25. And then we were told to make a shooting schedule. Afterwards Mr Nick showed us the importance of a clapper. 

We also learned about mise-en-scene, which is basically  everything yiu see in a scene.
