CCR #1

        Hello again Blog, today I'm talking about CCR question number one. What does CCR mean?, well it stands for creative critical reflection and it's the last part of my portfolio project. For the CCR I must create two media products, each of them must contain two CCR questions for a total of four questions being answered. Now I'm not entirely sure how I would like to split up the questions or what type of media product I want to create but I'm considering doing a director's commentary.

    CCR #1 is about discussing genre conventions. It's best to let the audience know beforehand what a genre a convention is when making your video. As stated by StudioBinder a genre convention refers to the recurring elements, themes, character types, plot points, and settings that are commonly found within a specific genre. After I let the audience know what a genre convention is, I must discuss what genre conventions I chose to challenge or if I chose not to challenge any I must discuss why. I don't want to spoil whether I've stuck to the genre conventions of sports comedy or not, but I can say that I'm excited to talk about it. I feel that answering these questions is going to be a whole lot better than creating the film just because I get to take you through my thought process and explain my decisions.

      After discussing whether or not I included the genre conventions of sports comedy I must end with a discussion of representation. Representation refers to the choices made in how individuals, groups, events and issues are illustrated within a production. I feel like this is going to be a little harder for me to describe but still able to be done.
