On the 21st of October We - 5DC have been preparing for our portfolios and preparing for the 3 way conference. A lot of our work has been from our reflections on our unit. I have picked my reflections on analyzing media, Dove evolution video reflection and also my first garageband song (but technically not really my first) but even though preparing for those things have been a lot of work, I still thought preparing was actually quite fun because throughout this unit, I’ve been amazed of how communication can be sent away to people and maybe animals on the unit Media. I’d probably have the unit - Media as my favourite unit so far. Anyways about my reflections if you want to look at one reflection that i’ve done, it will be down below. Maybe you can do a reflection of this piece. Can you? Hope you enjoyed reading my post!
What happened was that a group of people (editors/photographers/producers/directors/makeup artists) all took just an ordinary girl in their studio and the makeup artists put makeup on the girl and made her look different. They also did different things to the girls hair and took a photo of her in makeup. After that they put a photo of her in photoshop and edited some parts of her face.(which surprised me)
2. What is the message in this video?
I think the message in this video is that don’t believe everything in pictures even though they look real. I think this is the message because what the people did with a normal girl was that the producers/directors/makeup artists put makeup on an ordinary girl and made her look different. They also did different things to the girls hair and took a photo of her in makeup. After that they put a photo of her in photoshop and edited some parts of her face.
3. Did anything surprise you?
Yes actually. A lot of thing surprised me. What surprised me was that the producers/editors/photography people actually photoshopped some parts of her face and I did not expect that because I think the girl actually looked ok the way she already was without the photoshop editing. I’ve never really seen people do this stuff so i’m quite surprised.
4. What does this video tell you about how media is created?

4. What does this video tell you about how media is created?
I think what this video told me was that media can’t always be 100% natural. I think that what the video is trying to say is that some photos may not be real by itself. Anything is possible so I think that’s what the video is saying. Also it might be saying don’t believe everything on pictures, drawings or billboards.
