Hi guys,
Key ideas before 19th!
I got 79/80 in my coursework. 12/12 on Research, 45/45 on Productions and 19/20 on Evaluation
- Above suggestions are great but also integrate key media quotes/theories in your responses. Since my class in doing Documentary in particular, we have been advised of different quotes (Dyer, Chomsky, McQuail, Nichols, Gauntlet, Bazin, Kruger etc...) For Level 4 (25-32), you need to have a confident understanding and application of media/issues/theories/debates.
- Don't forget your facts/statistics regarding your product/text, i.e if you're analyzing how the e-Media platform shows success. You can add things like the Twitter/Facebook following of certain fan pages or the users that are active on it everyday, such things will show clear understanding and will get you in the level. This must be linked to your topic area and studied texts.
- We were suggested to know 3 texts from each platform in detail (Broadcasting, e-Media, Print) and some secondary texts. just to gain top marks and show the examiner that you're genuinely interested.
Goodluck!
