To evaluate and justify the extent that your awareness of conventions have influenced or effected the developmentes of your creativity
My creativity has developed over the two years from AS to A2 in a variety of ways. My research skills have developed greatly over the duration of the years and thus I have become more creative. In AS I carried out my audience research after the creation of my production. I only carried the research out through two or three variants of research processes such as questionnaires and social networking research. This was done by copying research carried out before by various people and thus was not creative at all. Furthermore, I did not use research in a productive way as it was collected after the project and I did not alter it after the collection. However at A2 my creativity developed and became more advanced as I used a variety of methods to use and apply audience research. Before even making the product I researched into finding what audience I would target and what they enjoyed most in relation to my product being created. I carried out research in various forms such as online research looking at reviews and cinema statistics then comparing them through gender, age and locations. Additionally, I used more research to gain a greater understanding of the task at hand and how to make the production successful.
Additionally my skills of applying research in a creative way has developed. At AS I did only one mood board of a couple magazines in relation to my genre however at A2 this became better as i created a variety of moodboards. I created a moodboard relating to locations, props, costume and also makeup. at A2 This portrays and broadened my creativity as rather than presenting my research in a word format I did so in visual form and in an original layout.
My application of conventions in my work has also developed over the two years as they have accentuated my creative outlooks on the project. This is shown in my A2 preproduction task as I looked and researched into genre. This was my textual analysis task. I took the conventions found in relation to my sub-genre and also overall genre and presented them in a variation of different mediums rather than generic PowerPoint presentations as I did at AS. This shows my creativity as I consumed more during he research period and thus in relation to what written I added more relevant visuals to allow the creative vision of my work to show through to those watching.
During the planning period I used more influences as we learnt about intertexual references. This helped and aided my creativity in the planning process as it allowed me to merge and create my own original idea from previous existing works that were successful. This made my work more creative as during the research i looked a large variety of films of my genre and then applied them to pitch.
