AS Media studies concepts.

Media language:
* Cinematography - mid - shot, birdseye view, long - shot, wide shot, close up shot.
* Editing - Cutting shots, Moving from scene to scene - e.g. fading into the next scene. 
* Sound - Very important when creating a clip/scene. Diagetic sound is originated from source within the films world. Non - diagetic sound is sound that is visible on the screen but not in the films world.
*Mise en scene - setting, location, lighting, costume, make-up, props, blocking, language.

Representation:
Analysing the media language - age, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, regional identity, ability/ disability, social/class status.

Audience
 Sound has effect on audiences. e.g. if a scary movie has no sound the film wouldnt be scary.
 Tense sound draws the attention of the audience.

Institutions
Producer - oversees a film project and preserves voice, integrity and vision of the film.
Camera operator - Uses cinematic techniques to operate a camera and captures images to make a film.
Editor - Combines shots together in sequence from one scene to another.
Going to get a question on the film industry in the exam.
