AS Previous C/W analysis (partner) TEACHER FEEDBACK

Lowest grade:  D2

Highest grade:  B2

Average grade:  C/D

I was generally impressed with your ability to evaluate previous AS c/w.  You could generally evaluate with WWW & EBI at a satisfactory level, some of you being able to critically analyse using effective media terminology.

To improve:

-not enough people had a range of comments from the MARK SCHEME  (most of you just said something about shots and music) - there are loads of things to talk about!!!!!  (remember the WHOLE mark scheme)

-to determine the plot and enigma you must look at the clues (images) in the videos, thinking about denotation/connotation - and how that creates meaning  (ex photography magazines = show she is a photographer)

-some of you determined the wrong genre! so you really need to think about how the films meet the conventions of each genre

-most of you completed questions on blog correctly but a lot of you still need to work on presentation - not just a long bulky paragraph, make the questions stand out from answers (think about spacing, underlining, bold, italics, colour etc.)

There is no opportunity to draft this work as it was a test for me to see what you were capable of.
(only improvements are to some people to complete questions on blog please)

Mostly well done.
