TV assessment Learner Response

 1) WWW- You make a lot of good points across both questions and now need to expand them to add the depth and detail demanded for the top levels. E.g. Your D83 paragraph on reality is great but only 3 sentences long.

EBI- Develop longer paragraphs that explore aspects of the question in more depth with examples from the CSP's and media theories. - Capital is much weaker than D83 in this essay so revise/practice that area.

2) Missed points for each question

  1. The main central image suggests a bridge between James Bond and Austin Powers (Bond parody) with tower bridge in the background referencing London as the location
  2. Capital has been accused of Left wing bias for its negative representation of wealth/upper middle class and has a positive representation of multiculturalism and illegal immigrants. Deutschland 83 is structured between the binary oppositions of East and West Germany.
3)Bricolage is the combining of two different materials/texts to create a new meaning.
   Pastiche is a faithful reconstruction of a media text.
   Intertextuality is when the conventions of one genre are alluded to in another

4) First paragraph would be an introduction to the CSP's i'd use. Then i would do a paragraph explaining how Capital, a state of the nation show, reflects London as a whole represents London accurately and tries to mirror reality with explicit references to recent events and social contexts. After that i would do a paragraph on how D83 is a lot different since it's representations can be questionable depending on how you view the east and west Germany.  

5) The three topics i believe i need to revise are D83, representation questions and perhaps a bit more about left wing and right wing

Blog Feedback

  WWW: You started really well with the film poster analysis and your mise-en-scene analysis tasks. I really like the choice of still image to analyse and you’ve also picked out some good elements of the mise-en-scene in the Get Out scene. You’ve written in some detail for those first two blog tasks and that’s something you want to continue and build on as the course develops because A Level is a very demanding standard. EBI: The isolation and illness going around this half-term have made things very tricky but it’s now crucial that we get back on top of the workload because constantly being behind makes for a tough year. You are missing four pieces on the coursework side but I’m confident you’ll be able to catch those up over half-term. Remember, for the mise-en-scene recreation you can now simply submit detailed planning rather than the full video. In terms of your analysis work, the key feedback is regarding the depth and detail required at A Level – just as you demonstrate in your

Sound Analysis

1)  Clockwork Orange-  The music choice isn't what I would expect from this type of scene from that movie with all the chaos going on around it as the guy hits them all into the water and holds a knife. I believe the director chose this music to show us what hes thinking not just from there internal monologue but through non diagetic sound. The characters mind sees his actions as methodical and planned so everything going on is within his control.   Funny Games- At the beginning the music seems to be parallel to whats going on in the scene with a nice calm and classic song maybe trying to show that the family is just your everyday normal group of people. Then near the middle the music takes a drastic shift and becomes contrapuntel to whats going on. The director might be trying to say that underneath the façade of them being normal they're lives are in constant chaos. The 2nd music was loud and a obnoxious. The narrative might delve into how a stereotypical family would react t
