Media language is the way in which a 'typical' short film is constructed. The film it self is a language and it uses a certain layout to design and illustrate a film such as the mise-en-scene, sound, visuals and editing and then considering the other elements such as genre, representation, narrative and audience.
A man called Hitchcock describes what the Kuleshov effect:
This is a very clever approach in media terms when talking about media language because as Hitchcock said that if there were a women sitting on the beach of a child and then you have a man staring at them, smiling it would straight a suggest that he is just a nice ordinary old man however if we change the shot with the women with a child and replace it with a women in a bikini but still have the same shot of his face of the exact same expression (smiling) it would therefore then straightaway suggest that he is a dirty old man.
How can I use media language when producing my film:
I will make sure that I have the right micro elements to produce the film and so that it makes sense together and suits the genre that I pick. After looking at Hitchcock's video about the Kuleshov effect, it helped me understand that when it comes to filming I will have the right feature of understanding when filming different scenes and so that viewers don't become confused and know why that certain person is making that facial expression.
