Why I Chose AS Media?

The reason why I chose AS Media as one of my A-Level options was because I enjoyed the GCSE course of media, so I thought I would enjoy the A-Level course even more. When I went to the options evening to decide what options I wanted to take, media caught my eye and I was very interested in doing it. I have always been interested in the topic of media. Whether it be magazines, TV, internet blogs, and/or the conventions of a movie.

When I attended my GCSE media course in year 10, I learnt a lot about different camera angles, how a movie is made and how to make a magazine. I wanted to learn more about the different types of camera angles and I wanted a better understanding of how a movie is made. I thought about how I could do that and the answer was to choose AS Media as one of my A-Level options, so I did. I know I will enjoy this course throughout year 12 and 13 and I can't wait to see what this course teaches me about camera angles and everything media!
