My name is Ruba Khan and this is my media blog in which I will be doing all my coursework on, homework and any tasks we may need to do. I am currently doing media studies as an AS level and hope to carry it on for A2. I enjoy this subject thoroughly and I would love to do something along the lines of this in the future. I enjoy filming and editing the most. I like to be creative and would like to think I am a creative person. I have a thirst to make things unique and exemplify them in my own way. However, the theory part of media is very interesting to see how things are created in the media industry (films, music videos, adverts, etc.). Also it is fascinating to see all the cast & crew, cameras and time that goes into making something tricky look so easy as we watch it.

Update

Starting our filming was not the easiest task we have done so far in media. Getting the appropriate date and time (where it would be unproblematic for everyone in my group) was very difficult. This was due to everyones busy schedules. Once we had finally started filming and had nearly finished it, I got glandular fever. This was a major downfall for my group because I was playing the role of the main character (the girl being harassed). Due to the regular disruptions - we ended up having to rush for time. Therefore, we had no choice but to start the whole filming again with another person being the main character. We managed to make up for it very quick and finished the main filming in half the time. It ended up working for the best as it turned out better than it did the first time round. We used better camera shots and came up with new & better ideas.
