    Agreed. I haven't come across this site until now, very useful if you're stuck on a specific area.

    not everything .. u include examples and theorists from Genre and Narrative. Then talk about Semiotics and examples/theorists from there . and also talk about editing your work. then for each of these sections say how it has come accross to the audience.. how the 'media language' was received and if it was the way you wanted it to be received.
    hope that makes sense.

    For 1B Genre, it asks questions about conventions, what could you put about whether they were successful and whether we challenged the conventions?
