Film Analyse

Johnny English Reborn.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_883cRmOZXs

The movie Johnny English Reborn is a comdey movie as the main character Rowan Atkinson who is most commanly known as Mr.Bean is assosiated with comdey movies. Because the fact that Rowan Atkinson is always presented in a comical mood we know that this movie will be a comedy movie.

In the trailer Rowan Atkinson is shown to be dopey where as the voice over says he's a 'top agent'.
An example of this is when Rowan Atkinson is practicing his martial arts move with his group. When they finish off there moves he finish in the wrong direction. In addition, the voice over says 'the worlds greatest spy' and yet again Rowan Atkinson is presented to be the complet opposite as he gets hit by a pole. Which brings the comical side of it

Another example of Rowan Atkinson being portrated as a complet opposite of 'the worlds greatest spy' is when he's flying a helicopter and his side kick says 'do you know how to fly this sir?' and Rowan Atkinson replies 'it's all coming back to me' when he can't drive the helicopter. As he is trying to take off he is cutting the trees beside him with the helicopter wings. This makes the audience laugh as they make out that Rowan Atkinson is another 007 when he's clearly not. Which brings out the comical side of the movie.

GCSE MEDIA BLOG

The reason I have chosen GCSE Media Studies is because my sister reconmended it as she has done it for GCSE and for her A-Levels this year. She talked to me about this subject as I was very interested in it before. She told me about the course work side of media and some filiming project we may do which made me want to pick GCSE Media for year 11.
In GCSE Media this year I would hope to learn about video editing and filming as this side of the media has always fasinated me and I've always wanted to learn how to edit fliming clips which looks really hard.

On our lesson on Friday, we presented our own music mazaine to the class. Our magazine was called
'Soul Sounds'. Soul Sounds was aimed at the RnB/Hip Hop scene. Our front cover started Rita Ora, also it featured Drake, Lil Wayne, Rhianna, Rita Ora and Flo rida inside the magazine.

Our Overall preformance was good but could of been better. The way it could of been better was we could of gone into more detail about specific part of our magazine such as why we chose Rita Ora as our front cover start, why we targeted the RnB / Hip Hop music scene and why we chose our magazine name to be Soul Sound.
However we did awnser all 10 questions which sir presented to us, but we just kept it short and simple.
