LA C LA C Y LA R: CRITICAL CREATIVE UHH WAIT NO CREATIVE CRITICAL REflec CREATIVE CRITCAL REFLEC CRITICAL OMG GUYS ITS SO LATE

So thanks to you Cambridge lads being the most goated people of entire time and not requiring us to make 2 whole other videos along with our super duper rigorous, hard to make short film, I feel a little lighter and less worrisome about this years CCRS! WAHOO! The questions here this year for A level are a bit different than last year's so I think it's pretty worth taking the time and going through each question and plan out what I may answer each of them with so I won't be scrambling by week 8 :] Luckily, throughout our documentary time of the year, Tstok provided us with a super awesome lesson on CCR's so now we're chilling and now we know what to do :D Check it!

Some very nice christmassy themed ccr notes for you all Cambridge lads to see! :D Now I yap for the next 10 minutes for a good grade and immediately hop into bed! Woohoo I'm excited to sleep! I have to wake up in like 6-7 hours! HAHAH! Help!! 

Here are all the CCR questions in suggested order everybody! 

1. How did your research inform your products and the way they use or challenge conventions?

2. How do your products engage with the audience?

3. How do the elements of your production work together to create a sense of "branding?"

4. How do your product's represent social groups or issues?

ALRIGHTY LETS GO! MY BED IS WAITING FOR ME!!

QUESTION 1. RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCH!!!:

Emi needs to talk aboutttt

• All the dark comedies I researched way back in the day like The Amazing Digital Circus, Dan Da Dan, ENA, Jojo Rabbit etc.
• All the aspects from each media text that gave me inspiration/aspects from each that I researched in depth for my own film
• Big discussion on dark comedies
• Give specific examples from each media text that inspired some of the choices I made for The Scourge

QUESTION 2. AUDIENCE AUDIENCE AUDIENCE!!!:

• Give super awesome in depth description of The Scourge's target audience that I luckily already established within my branding post a couple weeks ago :D
• Discuss how my social media engages with target audiences (or how it doesn't)
• Discuss how postcard(s) engage with target audiences (or how it doesn't)
• Discuss how final short film engages with target audiences (or how it doesn't)

QUESTION 3. BRANDING BRANDING BRANDING!!!:

• Describe brand that I developed/wanted to developed (refer back to brand post)! I am a master on our film's branding so this question will be a nice and breezy piece of cake!
• Discuss how my social media develops a consistent brand (it does)
• Discuss how postcard(s) develop consistent brand
• Discuss how final film develops consistent brand (oh I will CHIP MY SOUL AWAY to achieve this well I'm telling you all NEOW)
• Talk about what can change to improve some of the brand development

QUESTION 4. SOCIAL GROUPS AND ISSUES SOCIAL GROUPS AND ISSUES!!!

lol this one will be crazy

• Discuss representation in our short film while including commentary on iconography + other representation terms we learned in the past
• Consider if The Scourge is successful in developing representation goals (do we develop the representation of harmful cults good, right? We develop idea of doing dumb things for power over others right? :D Stuffs like that!)

Okie dokes blog! Short and sweet post today because honest to all good in this world, I NEED REST. LIKE RIGHT NOW. I FEEL MY EYES SHUTTING!!
