I think they’re on the website but may have to have access from a teacher first?

Has anyone got any media industry information on 'The returned'? Trying to find info about it is proving hard!

Oh really? Have you finished the course though? Your teachers might just want to get the course finished first then start the coursework after, rather than starting it with content still to cover.

Thank you! I'm pretty nervous about it but I'm hoping it will be okay.
Oh wow! Which brief did you pick? I'm doing the TV show one, I've just about finished my opening scenes and poster so just have the DVD cover to make now!

Regarding newspapers in C1, are we supposed to have studied the whole newspapers rather than just the covers? It's come up in a few revision videos on YouTube and we've only been shown the covers in lessons.

I get my mock that we did before christmas back tomorrow which i'm dreading😂 my teacher marks for the eduqas exam board so she will probably be really harsh.. I chose the Film/Radio Show brief. We only got given 2ish months to complete the whole thing which was kinda stressful😭 the DVD cover is quite straightforward. do you use photoshop at school ?

I hope it goes okay for you! I bet it's a relief to have finished the coursework though! That's a relief! Yes, we used Premier Pro for the audio-visual sequence and Photoshop for the poster and DVD cover.

Are you planning on going to university out of interest?
