Comic Strip Task

Our first task was to edit an already existing comic strip. Me and Matt opted for the Mary Worth strip as we felt it would enable us to demonstrate humour and irony in our sequence. We altered the words of the comic strip to 'Tinie Tempah's Frisky and included the instrumental of the song in the background. This gave our comic strip added humour and made it more entertaining.

Improvements

At times our camerawork was quite shaky, mainly due to the fact the camera wasnt fixed on the tripod preoperly. Also, we only showed one type of camera shot which was panning. Furthermore I feel it would have been more effective had we incorporated voice over of the lyrics which would have enabled the audience to enjoy and relate to it more. It was however, a worthwile experience and it definetlety aided us in preperation for future tasks.

This trailer appeals to me as it has a smilar target audience to one I am looking to attract. I feel the mise en scene is very effective in this trailer in order to amplify common stereotypes of the teachers and schoolchildren.  There are many other media conventions of which I will look to implement into my soap such as quick edits.The music suggests trouble but does not come across to threatening ando so is welcoming for the audience.
