Sony case study

Within Mrs banks class we have been looking and researching about the Sony music industry in order to prepare for our exam in the summer. We have to look at a number of different elements within the Sony music industry some of the topics we had to research was:
  • The ownership of Sony
  • The production
  • whats on Sony's website
  • Sony's Marketing
These are only some of the topics we have research about. Its important we have as much research as possible in order to give us the best possible chance so that we have thew knowledge about Sony when going into the exam. Within Sony we will be looking at niche and mainstream artist within Sony and their fan bases and the way in which Sony promotes new artists. We will also be looking at the way in which music technology has changed and how you purchase music.

I really enjoy this topic as love the music industry and it interests me to want to learn more and know more about it. i love listening to all types of music and i love watching music videos especially in the morning when i wake up. Learning about Sony is very interesting as the scale of it so big and there is so much to learn about it.
In the lessons recently we have been learning and talking about you tube and how it helps Sony discover and promote artists. We have been talking about its benefits and disadvantages as this will all help Link into our case study

First day of filming

Me and Jack met up at his house in the morning the weather was sunny and damp on the floor it was perfect weather for us to film. We had to make sure we had all he props that we needed in order that are filming to run smoothly we made sure we kept a close eye on the story board to ensure we stayed on track. As it was our first day of filming it took as a little longer to get to grips with the camera shots and making sure that all of them were just how we wanted them. We made sure we took more the one shot of the same shot to give us the best chance of it being right. Mr Buckmaster also helped us by telling us to leave a 5 second time gap before and after the shot to give us chance for editing and more room for us to work and make it look better.
We were able to get a range of shots we wanted. We made sure that the transitions between each Shot was smooth and that the shots of the boy getting ready showed the audience he was having breakfast without having to film all of it. Next time we film we must make sure the weather is the same as last time to ensure the continuity is correct and looks the same.
