Welcome to my A2 Media Studies Blog. Here I will present my research and planning for my production of a promotional film trailer alongside two ancillary products; a poster and a magazine cover, where I have tried to incorporate typical codes and conventions of existing media products. On the right hand side is a link to my Foundation Portfolio where you can see my skills development throughout the course, as I adopted new techniques and abilities.

Progress Update

Over the Christmas break, I continued with the editing process and hope to produce a second draft trailer to show my target audience in order to gain feedback. I will then make changes in relation to their comments.
