Task 2b

I decided to pick the Machine gun kelly cd cover and the football skills manual for this task.
An example mise-en-scene is the microphone in his hand show that this is about music. His facial expression shows that his music is for a rap fans. The text is san serif. The colour of font show that this Cd cover is target at a audience that are into rap.
The football manual mise en scene is the football which show this is about sports. The clothing that the kids is wear is conventional because it shows he is playing football. This text is also san serif. This is bold and is eye catching. The green background makes the pictures and text stand out.

Test shoots and file storage

For the test shoots I used a canon A1200. After i took the pictures plugged in the camera to a desktop to copy the photos.The storage file on the camera i used is a raw file.  I created a folder to store these pictures.
Throughout the camera was on manual mode.
This is a high angle. I tilled the camera up and snapped the photo. The framing of this photo was macro.
This is a longshot of one side of the football. In the background you can see the houses in the distances. For this i used a landscape framing.



Here I zoomed in on a display of newspapers. I moved the camera up to the display and snapped the picture.
This is when i uploaded the pictures on to the computer and put in the file.

interactive media

I am going to do interactive media which are websites.
The first website I decided  to pick first is youtube. Youtube is where people can upload videos on whatever they like. The most uploaded videos on youtube is How to videos.
https://www.youtube.com
 
The second website i picked is NBA.com. This is where you can watch highlights of the latest games from the NBA season and different interviews.
http://www.nba.com/
 Here are two electronic billboards. The first advert is to advertise a new burger at Mcdonalds. It also has a slogan is Devour it. 

The second electronic billboard advert is about raising awareness for domestic abuse against women.
The slogan for this is advert is don't turn a blind eye. This means if you see it or hear it happen report it.
