My First Journal

GCSE

I started studying Media in the year 10, GCSE Course, where I was with the wrong croud and would settle to do anything, i would just sit at the back of the class with my friends and moan about working, but then i realised over the first year that i was interested in media and it was developing around me. I grow my interest in Media and in year 11 i knew it was my time to prove to myself that i had an inspiration, and i infact have, Media has inspired me and has effected me possitively.

AS Level

The following year i took on media in A-level and knew that it had so much more to offer, me and as a B student i would be silly to drop the oppertunity to grow even more, the year of 12, has made me more aware of the big media world that i can tell whether a film is going to be good via its cover, and advertisement. As a class we were all pu into teams of fours, and i feel i became the leader of the team, and had mos control, inputted more than the others and was ahead of my work, the task for our portfolio of the year was to produce a Opening Title Sequence inwhich i decided would be set n y house with three members of my family as the main characters, our video was successful because we all got on as a team, and motivated eachover and i felt confortable, as well as the other members to speak my mind and say what needed to be added, half way through the making of the video we lost some footage and had to reshoot it, this was no longer a problem because it looked much better than before becuase we wanted to do so much more with it. Although i felt like a control freak i was happy because it went to plan and although one member didnt pertisipate as much as the rest of us, i was rewarded with a B again! but when it came to studying for my exam, i didnt do well at all, exams are not my best spot, infact exams are my weakness and because of this i got a E for my exam totally my year grade to a C.


Where I have progressed

I have been rewarded with the 'most improved' award, becuase of my progress through out the years, and have been nomitated for best blogspot, and best opening title sequence.


What i aim to do in the future of my media world

Media is my inspiration and i have full control of it, and i am determined to be part of what makes the Media what it is today, and what it will be in the future, i aim to push myself to the limit in year 13, where we will be studying Music Videos, this is what i was studying for my GCSE course when i recieved an B grade, so i am determined to get a better grade this year!
