Question 1- In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products
Whilst creating my music video because I had watched the video I was using, it had influenced the way I made it, although I didn't use any of the movements that was used in the video it did help me give it a structure. I also had to make it kind of similar to target my specific audience.
I conducted research in to Beyonce's music videos to see how she made them there was three songs in particular I then done a survey to my target audience to see which song they liked more the majority of the vote went to 7/11. I liked how the video was a series of movements rather than having an actual narrative to it.
I decided for my own piece I would do the same it was performance based and not narrative I decided that I didn't really like narrative and that my target audience would find a performance based one much better.
My music video challenges conventions by being performance based and not narrative some theorists argue that all music videos have a structure and a narrative but mine doesn't because it's just a series of movements. Some audiences would enjoy a narrative based video as there is a story to be told with it as mine is just performance based it's a lot more entertaining.
These are my references I used for my video. The first one is 7/11, the song I actually chose to base my video around and the other video is Grown Woman. Both videos are mainly just a series of movements but Grown Woman had a bit more of structure to it, this why I came to chose 7/11 because I didn't feel like a narrative would appeal to my target audience.
I do believe that in some ways my music video does challenge the conventions but also develops the use of the coventions also. I have kept a mid shot all the way through my video but varied in the ways I took the images for my ancillary tasks.

Backcover Digipak work
This is my logo that I have put on the back of my digipak, I also have my logo on the front of my digipak I decided i wanted it on both so it's more recognising
This is my track list for my album, as this is a woman empowering album I decided these where really good songs to use. I have taken a selection of songs off different Beyonce albums and followed a similar kind of house style for her album.
I have decided to add at the top track list the majority of albums don't have this convention but I decided that I liked how it looked.
I have also put a barcode in place which is a key convention of a digipak.
