Camera stuff

Camera stuff ISO - A number that represents how sensitive your camera sensor is to light. The higher the ISO number, the higher your camera's sensitivity, and the less light you need to take a picture. Change focus by twisting the front of the camera. You would use a slow shutter speed for a car, as it is moving faster, and is therefore more blurry. Aperture can add dimension to your photos by controlling depth of field. There are 10 rules of photography. You can create depth in a photo by including objects in the fore ground, middle ground and background. Composition is the arrangement of elements within a photograph. It is how the photograph is put together. You can add to the photograph using the rule of thirds which adds balance and interest to the photo.

Media BTW Assessment

Media BTW Assessment Musical artists create music videos as they are able to gain revenue from them through the use of several streaming platforms thanks to technological convergence. They are able to put certain messages in the lyrics and video, which can appeal to the audience. If the audience chooses to accept these messages, they will subscribe to the artist, and begin to listen and watch their other songs that they have to offer. They can do this through certain platforms such as YouTube and Spotify, which let the artist earn a small amount of royalties. From this, the audience can further accept the artists messages and proceed to attend concerts, in which they can see them live. This earns the artist a lot of revenue, helping them continue producing more music videos, and spread more messages. By becoming well established and creating an image for themselves, the audience will acknowledge music videos as belonging to a certain artist, without themselves being featured in the mus

Revision

Image
Revision Example 1 The Sun has chosen to use this main image to present David Cameron as weak and therefore innocent to their audience, as they wish to portray the PM in the nicest way possible, due to their right-leaning stance. The close-up of David Cameron shows the emotion on his face, which further portrays his weak and apologetic demeanor.

Example 2 The choice of image in this front cover could suggests that David Cameron cares more about his wife than the fate of the country. This could be seen to some as sweet, but to others as extremely negative, and disappointing The choice of image also shows that David Cameron's wife is in a much better mood and is more confident than he is. The headline of "Brexit earthquake" shows the sever
