Now, in all the blogs I've read from classes prior and even blogs within my own class, the cliché for this blog is to talk about how excited you are about ending blogging as well as tie in helpful ideas from the semester. I wanted to diverge from this, but realized that its cliché for a reason, it works.
My overall sense of media literacy has developed throughout this semester. I have to thank careful observation and helpful principles in developing my skills as a media literate individual. The branch of media literacy that I became most interested with this semester is the Politics of Production. I am fascinated at the integral roles each player has. Vertical integration has to be one of the most intelligent and useful tools that gets people by in the media industry. The ability to unite the different levels of production under one company name is incredible. This tool expedites efficiency.
I feel as though I have a better understanding of intention in cinematography now from our brief overview of cinema tools. The idea that the director can associate good feelings with a particular character based off of all the other objects that show up on one side of the screen is incredible.
I believe that this course has strengthened my understanding of the relationship between today’s global community and the media that governs it. I have made changes in my life based off of information I have learned in class.
Here is where some great summarizing statement should go. Unfortunately, I have nothing profound to say, except I am now a producer of media.
