This could help me in get a future career which helps me develop the creative and imaginative part of me which help me plan things out and become an artist in the media industry. This part of art and design also gives me a chance of giving me photography skills, which could lead to a having a job as a photographer. I could also do a course in art to help me do animations in movies by CGI movies by join big industries such as Disney and dream works.  The art aspect of the course also relates to writing so I could be a script writer as a future job.  The qualifications to become an artist you need to get B for both Maths and English in your GCSE.

Photography 

Since I’ve taking a likely to understanding somewhat it takes to be a cameraman I think it would help me become a professional camera man if I had developed the skills to truly be one. I already have some of skills from being in media BTEC. I know shot names and different types of camera techniques and angles. This is why I believe that a course in photography would suit me as one of the best. The qualification to become a photographer you need 5 GCSE from C to A along with passing both math and English.  Some of the skills is knowing how to manager your time and be patient.

Unit 8 Trade fair & Transferable skills

Trade fair are most often these staged events, which are used to promote a certain things from a business company. Sales promotion helps businesses increase the profit and raise a great amount of awareness. Trade fairs are most often are taken place in popular areas and are held by well known business companies which attracts more citizens to check out the trade fair. 


Transferable skills that I have gain the time I spent in media BTEC learn new skills which helps me understand the media a lot better and what skills are needed in order to employed in specific jobs in media.  When I first stared media BTEC one of the first things I had learned was camera shots. This is when I learned names of all the camera shots such as extreme close up big close ups and medium close ups. Knowing the names of the camera made be acknowledge how much time and effort is out every single scene of a movie or series. When you watch TV most you see all these techniques without even realizing they are being used and since I've learned I don't watch a movie or series the same way again. I always think about way the camera could have moved as a form of representation to the story and characters emotions with the camera shot.  Implementing these camera shots in to my own video has taught me a great deal of how important camera shots are and there is so much detail and put into a scene something being recorded. These are just some of the skills that I have learned along with thinking outside the box if a camera doesn't seem to workout perhaps change the location or even the angle. 

Unit 8 Developing technolgiers

Over the decades technology as been growing and just seem to keep on improving. This relating to the media industry how technology has specific grown for it.  The media of course stared of small as most things do but eventually grew. The first ever camera was called the Kodak, which was in 1889.

At first people could only ever watch movies in cinemas it was a  new brand thing which didn't cost much money. At the time movies where only black and white also had no idea so subtitles needed to be into the movies in order to understand certain stories only background music.   In 1990 this all changed as audio was finally was available for movies and there were no need for subtitles anymore, which took place in Paris where the media industry really began. The first actual real movie to have people talking in them would be in 1927 in real time. In the early 1930s most counties around the world had movies with audio in them.  The first ever movie to be in 3D in cinema was in 1922 that was called The power of love although he wasn't as high quality as of now. 

The first cinema to have been created was in 1905. The media industry have grown since then in 1940s the only channel that was available for the UK was the BBC which featured a multitude of things to watch. This was also around the time where most working class and up class citizens usually had a TV in their very own home. As the media industry grew more people begin to take interest into the big screen. Suddenly there were more channels that would appeal to a verity of people from gender, age and race. The draw back to having a TV in your very own home people were less inclined to go to a cinema to watch a movie which meant big movie companies such Hollywood were losing out on money. 

As the quality of technology increased cinemas upped their skills and made Imax 3D which felt even more realistic the out lines of the characters looked like they are coming of screen and everything is in front of you. Cinemas in Imax also get the chair to slightly move about when watching a movie to feel as if you are being affected by what you are watching as a whole new experience. 

In 1958 a lot of things were live on TV. The problem with live TV is that it didn't functional as well as does well as a lot of people didn't have the latest TV which why a lot channels didn't use them often as it would make them lose out on audience and potentially money. 

In 2008 mostly every single movie in cinemas would be 3D this is so tickets would cost more money for the audience to buy and so the film industry would also gain more profit it was a smart and strategic business plan. The problem was that the network was also growing which resulted in a lot of people just watching movies on their computers or their own TV with film subscription companies such as Netflix and amazon prime, which get updated regally, and even more their very own original TV shows. People can pre record something so that they can watch it later if they are not able to watch something currently making their very own schedule and so audiences don’t miss anything and both channels and audiences benefit from this.  

The amount of money that goes into buying equipment in order to get a high good quality movie now a days is ridiculously expensive. Which is why it’s hard for small film organizations, to make much money, as they have to have a lot of money in order to get started on the movie. Even if you make a cheap movie you are likely not able to get it advertised on TV because of how expensive advertising is on TV, which is why a lot of cheap made films aren’t heard of because they go straight to DVD, and not on cinemas. This is killing the film industry as a lot of people may have great concept for a movie but doesn’t have the money a lot of originality and good excitations for movies are rare now a days, as it seems everything has been done before.  

Unit 8 Contract & Trade union

Task 1

Exclusivity contract  is a type of contract which means  a movie company owns the licence to the movie they owner TV  such as unviversal so that other businesses such as love film and Netflix.  So since they don't own it doesn't count as a Netflix original so they don't have the licence for it.  The people benefiting from are obliviously the business company at owns the movie or TV  series no other business company can use it and gain money from it.

Task 2

Trade union are important to a business as their roles is to protect and insure that the employees feel satisfied in their working environment. Without the trade union a lot of employees would be underpaid and not gain as much money as they should which would lead to a lot of people quitting their jobs in search for another that pays better this would break business structure if employees kept quitting on their job and small business would lose a lot of respect making them lose money and gain a bad reputation for unsaying employees. People are expected to act kindly to each but also be treated with respect each and everyone.  The trade union is their to represent the employees in their hour of need which why they are critical to businesses.
