SWEET analysis



Stripped down to my skin and my bones
I love huskies but I feel like a wolf (howw!)
In a pack but I feel all alone
I'm scatterbrained, man
Better offer the clone
------------------------------
The start to SWEET represents the white man of america, however this is a countertype, because he is resembled as a rapper who is around people of a different race of which isn't the norm in america. As a result he represents his feelings towards how society treats him because of his ways, "stripped down to my skin and my bones" shows he feels stripped of his respect that the government had for him.
Camera shots are used here are a close up mixed in with zooms that go in and out, showing his mind being undecided about the culture he is involved in but he eventually becomes decided as he also shows confidence in these shots.
Ultimately, the white man feels he is out of place because of what the government has drilled into white Americans and that the normal stereotype in media is for black people to only be able to be rappers and hang around with black people, whilst white people can't do this supposedly and such "In a pack but I feel all alone" represents this fully in him feeling inadequate in his group and feeling isolated like he doesn't belong.

Until you high as a plumber with race eyes, (chronic) doin' weird shit
Like, this'll make your bio-pic (haha)
Rile 'em up, hit Zaxby's
Get the wing tings (yum)
Real quick bills still stacking to the ceiling (uh-oh)
Whatchu mean, it ain't working? (what?)
Whatchu mean, you ain't finding yourself? (oh, I am, I'm trying)
Whatchu mean, you ain't got no cash? (I got a little bit)
Whatchu mean? Whatchu mean?
Shouldn't your pockets be big just like a fat chick? (uh-huh)
Shouldn't your mama be done paying the house off? (I guess)
Shouldn't you have a real big-ass ego? (no)
Shouldn't these girls be flockin' just like seagulls? (eh)

Evaluation of Sports Advert

The task given and the target audience

The task we were tasked with was to produce an advert that appealed to 60+ age range, this was somewhat challenging because it is hard to appeal to the older generation. To target the older audiences we put in a Noir style at the start to what is similar to old fashioned TV were it was just black and white. However we contrasted that in the second half of the advert with bounce music to resemble the new found energy that they would get when drinking the drink.

Dividing the research, filming and planning 

We, as a group, did not divide all of our stages onto just one person, we did our work in blocks. For research we all researched logos and sports related things, to which we found the Tennessee flag and the University for Athletics and Sports and as a result of finding these results we decided to base our logo of the Tennessee flag. Our planning stage was set out like a meeting and we discussed all different ideas, we ended up sorting our planning sequence into a story board in which it was split up into 6 different parts. Finally was our filming phase which we all went together and did on a running track and on a pathway, and on the track we filmed the sporty, energetic scenes and on the pathway we filmed Mr Dexter acting lonely and depressed.

Initial Feedback

Showing it to classmates and our teacher, we got solid responses that were all filled with good comments however we did get an improvement with the sound in one place, which we improved immediately after. As a result we came to the conclusion that our sequence was a success.

What I learnt

I personally learnt that teamwork was as important as the research that is poured into a production. I also learned more about premier pro and am now confident in my ability in editing films.
