Blog Post 21- How To Market

 Marketing is a key component to creating media. It is a way to expand audiences and make more people want to watch the media which can expand the profits very well.  Social media is a easy and great way to market media. Most people spend there day with and on social media. The average amount of social media use in America is 6 hours a day, so marketing through social media is an easy way to get either your production studio or the media they are creating out into the public. 

The platform i will be using to market is an really popular app called instagram. On this app i can promote and create sneak peaks for the upcoming audience. this can create a tease and make the audience more intersted and intreged to watch it. I can do this by showing photos and different texts that might go along with the documentary, and to keep the audience updated they have the oppertunity to follow my production account. Another great thing about this app as that me as the owner of the production company i can easily see what other post to see there interests which creates an oppurtuinty for me to add there likes into my media and keep there dislikes away which will make more people want to watch my media creating a way to expand my production company.

Blog Post 1- Final Project Idea

 For my final project i decided to create a documentary on how the lives of navy soldiers as well as there daily lives and how it effects there families at home. This project idea came from a more personal source as i am someone who has a family member in the navy. Learning what there daily lives are like can provide a sense of sympathy as well as for the families who are missing apart of there families. I believe this documentary could bring in many different audiences as well as keep audiences entertained with an emotional aspect. I plan to show the two different lifestyles of a family, between a mom with her 3 kids and a husband who can never be home since he is always on duty. Learning about the daily life or weeks for a navy soldier can be emotional for people who do not understand or even people who are familiar with the topic which can create an even more emotional atmosphere. By appealing to people emotions is keeps audiences interested and growing. I plan on showing multip...

Blog Post 23- Three Products - Video

 Video is the most important part of documentary's, it is a key feature and it would be extremely hard to succeed without it. In a documentary almost all shots are handheld and propped up. This can be to emphasize things they are talking about as well as provide an example . When footage is shaky and not as clean this can make it seem more real and make it more sensory for the audience. Adding what you are talking about and it gives an audience a clear image instead of having them assume what the the documentary wants them to think or see. You want to provide your audience with these major things, one the narrative of the which sets the rest of documentary which in this case would be the husband in the military, and how he feels about being far from his family and how he thinks it effects his family. Then the supplementary footage which is all the extra footage that relates and help builds toward the meaning but not the main focus, in this case that would be the clips of dirty dish...

Blog Post 22- Narrativies Of Documentary

Image
 All films usually consists of a narrative, so i went and researched the main four. These consists of the three act structure, circular narrative, linear/ chronological narrative, and parallel/multi-strand. The three strand act is when it is a fictional story for an example where there is a hero and a princess, these are made strictly for entertainment and it contains when there is an obstacle to get through to either start a new resoultion, and a new understanding within the audience. The circular narrative is when the film starts off what with the film will also end with, this has it so the middle shows how they got to this point it. A linear/ chronological narrative is when a film or media presents everything exactly how it happened in order. A parallel/ multi-strand is when there are multiple stories happening at once, the storylines are made to seem like they are unrelated but eventually they will meet in the same storyline and they all will share something in common related t...
