Project Title
Final Major Project
Unit No
 8
Section 1: Rationale/Review (Level 2 approx 50 words, Level 3 approx 100 words)
So far on this course, I have successfully created a visual and a print advert, a documentary, a radio drama and a website. When creating these forms of media, I have come to learn how different areas of the media industry work such as advertising, documentaries, radio and website development, for example, for my radio project, I learned how sound can be used to convey drama for an audience and for my advertising project, I have learnt how advertising techniques can affect the audience. For my final major project, the way the audience perceives the feature will be heavily important.  

Section 2: Project Concept (Level 2 approx 100 words, Level 3 approx 200 words)
For my final major project, I plan to create a music video. However, I will make sure that the content and the song will convey a meaning to my audience so therefore it will include an important message about something. I will get inspiration by researching into iconic music videos and music videos that have portrayed a strong social issue. The purpose of this research is that it will give me inspiration for my own music video because I will be able to watch these music videos and think about how the audience will perceive the subject that is been portrayed. Over the 11 weeks that I have in order to complete my final major project, I will endeavor to complete a period of research on various music videos relating to the type of video that I aim to create. This will be beneficial because I will be able to receive inspiration on recording and making my music video. After completing my research, I will use the research I have gathered to form a structure for my own music video, which will help me when my music video reaches the production stage.

Section 3: Evaluation (Level 2 approx 50 words, Level 3 approx 50 words)
Over the course of the final major project, I intend to evaluate my decisions in each stage of my project by keeping a diary of what I do in each stage of the project. The benefit of doing this is that the diary will help me document my decisions at each stage.

Pitch


I felt that my pitch went very well because I was able to get my ideas across to my audience very well. Also, it enabled me to plan out the process for creating my music video and research into different music videos and the techniques of different music videos.
