Media Specific Terminology

Filming- when you use a camera or another type of device to record something that you may want to include in a video that you are making. 

Editing- where you can make changes to a certain clip you recorded. this normally includes adding special effects, trimming videos down and including music in the background of it.

Character- where there is a person or animal included in the film.

Dialogue- where people talk in the film that is off a script.

Me as a Media Consumer

This is an introduction of me being a media consumer. I use quite a lot of the Media, I use the television to watch a variety of programs, but I mainly watch sport and comedy because they interest me a lot. I watch films that normally come out in the cinema and I don't really like watching DVDs that much unless I really want to. I mainly listen to the radio when in the car but I rarely ever listen to it besides that. I only read newspapers just for the sport because I like sport and I like reading what the media have to say about some of it, I look at other bits of the newspaper that interests me but that is quite rare. I don't read magazines at all because I don't really like them because I find them a bit boring. I listen to music on my iPod and on the internet sometimes but I'm not a huge fan of music but I mainly listen it on a journey or when I just fancy it. Now the internet, possibly the biggest factor simply because how advanced technology has become I use the internet all the time, I use it for games, social media purposes and watching videos as well as just using it to browse about. That's me and what media I use a lot and what I don't use a lot.

I am going to include an image of a TV program that I thought was hilarious.



Since I like sport I like to keep up to date with it so i look at Sky Sport's New's



I have just included an old trailer from a TV program that I really loved an that was called not going out.
