 Question : Analyze the challenges of regulating the media in the digital age. Answer One role that the Government can do in the Media is Regulating it. In China despite of tight regulation done by the Chinese officials, Its hard if not impossible to completely remove content out of the prying eyes of audiences , especially with digital age of the internet that makes content more accessible than ever before.

Angelo 12A This is my critical self reflection for our product Critical Self Reflection  For Component 3 of our Project, I chose the option which was ” A promotion package for the release of an album, to include a music video (major task), together with an official social media page for the band or artiste(s) and a digipak for the album’s release (minor tasks).”  My group which included : Myself, Jonathan , Jason and Abizer decided to go for a Hip Hop genre where we would  make a music video based on Kanye West’s song of ‘ Ghost Town’  How do your products represent social groups or issues? Our music video portrays the life of an average Male young adult, who is around the age of 18 to 25 years old. Young people are often underrepresented in the media, with simple and stereotypically negative things being said about them.

Video Editing (Angelo): Music Video Editing This is my editing for the music video I made. First, before anything I imported the ‘Ghost Town’ Audio into Hitfilm ( My editing software ) I named it appropriately  I lowered down the volume to not make it too loud I started importing files we have on the drive By using the ‘import’ button at the top left corner, I imported the videos to Hitfilm I Edited the videos by cutting them into pieces ( By using the clipping tool )  and finding the best scenes to use for each part, Following the storyboard. I also used jump cuts on appropriate beats to show time leaping forward.  I experimented using the letter box in the music video, But It didn't sit right for me to use it so I removed it.  Done with the first few scenes, I imported the next videos for our next scene. Which was the football one.  Like before I edited the videos according to the beat and used the appropriate scenes. This scene where he Shoots the ball and misses is done purpose
