Year 13 Media Production Review

After seeing many media productions at the Media Awards, I believe that the best year 13 production was “The Tweets”. It stood out from the others due to several aspects, such as; the attention to detail, the editing, the plot and its humour.

Firstly, the type of production it was, was a documentary which would have been showed on the channel BBC3. This makes it clear to the audience, their target audience – mainly teenagers/young adults. This links into the attention to detail they had whilst they edited it. At the very beginning, there was a BBC3 intro bit, which made it clear where it would be shown. Also the title credits were typical of BBC3 – with the introduction to the people they would be following, along with current music playing in the background.

Secondly, I thought the plot of the documentary is very relevant and contemporary, as society – especially amongst teenagers – is very celebrity influenced to an extent, as many people look up to them, whether they are good and suitable role models or not. I also liked the play title. “The Tweets”; which is relevant to the huge phenomenon - Twitter.

In addition to this, I thought that humour which was included suited the type of documentary it was. It showed that it wasn’t too serious and it was something the target audience could relate to and laugh at.

Therefore, this is why I believe this was the best year 13 production.
