Week 6 - Reflective blog post

In week 6 of Media  I looked at and designed a timeline about the evolution of BSR movies - looking at how they were designed in the 1960s and then moving onto present times. What I saw from this was the evolution of the diversity in characters for example in the 1960s, it was rare to find a black actor to be in a BSR whilst in the present times of 2000-2010 there is a greater diversity as there are black characters, Asian characters, Hispanics and white. Because of this I know that I should have more characters of a larger diversity in my opening sequence to make it as realistic as possible as we are doing an opening sequence for a British social realism film. In my group I have Fabio Fernandes and Myles Glaven who I am doing our own BSR opening sequence with.
