Creative Critical Reflection

1.      How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?

My product that I chose to present about, which was crocs, represents social groups in many ways. As you may or may or may not know it, crocs are a popular trending brand at the moments. Crocs saying is “Come As You Are” which basically represents someone expressing themselves in the crocs, as it comes in many different colors, sizes and etc.

2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?

 

 

As previously stated, my product engages with audiences because crocs are a trending brand at the moment. You could be going to the grocery store and would see a good 10 people walking around in them. They are comfortable shoes and even water shoes, so it would be distributed as a real media text of going out and purchasing some crocs because they are very fascinating and comfortable to wear. Not to mention they are in style!

  

3.      3. How did your production skills develop throughout this project?

 

My production skills developed a lot throughout this project. Reason being is because I was introduced more into the filming and editing word with the different types of takes and positions of the camera. When you learn the concepts of what you are filming, it just becomes a learning and growing process as you go.

 

 

4. How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project?

 

I integrated technologies into this project with the editing and filming portion of it. The camera that was used was the camera of an iPhone. An iPhone has a lot of software on it and really any piece of electronic does, but it is mainly about the quality that matters.
