cover sheet for media

Pre-production
My Pre-production consisted of watching shows of similar genres and paying attention to what people watch online such as arrow or flash and what channels they are on. I also looked at different programs and topics I am I know a lot about in the case of my project that would be Greek mythology. I then started to develop my characters by giving them personalities and by basing this idea off Greek gods I can base it off the personalities and attributes of the god's.

Production
during the production i worked by myself this then aloud me to work they way i thought was best and the ideas i wanted to do, which ended up being a poster and a pencil case. with the poster i originally had the idea of having it with out the pictures of the gods above them but i then this would be confusing to people as there would be kids just in front of a mountain but with godly figures above them allows for the power relationship and where the kids stand in comparison to their parents. while with the pencil case I used I the design is supposed to reflect each of the characters and there gods such as the first one is athena the goddess of tactics and that is why on the pencil case there is the books to symbolise intelligence. even though i did enjoy making these's products I did need help from other students when trying to use's photoshop as it was a complicated program.

Report
At the start of this report we discussed what teen genre we would like to do and the class talked about the horror genre mainly so we decided on that. we were told to watch at least 3 things that would help us with our T.V. programe, I ended up watching the second percy jackson film'sea of monsters', my baby sitter is a vampire and i read up on some greek mythology such as the minotaur and the different gods. My findings of watching and reading is that there are some conventions that i can follow such as the bully is a strong female in a physical sense as well as the older the character the wiser they are. also with some of the stories from greek mythos and the film and show is that they are a rising hero story or a more than meets the eye with someone that looks weak is actually strong in different ways.
