END OF TERM REVIEW

Please complete the survey below.

In addition, if you want to continue with Media Studies next term you MUST ensure that the following work has been completed.

Assignment 1a     (2 x analysis of magazine front cover)
Assignment 1b     (1 x your own original magazine front cover with annotations)

Both of these elements of Assignment 1 need to focus on how they appeal to the target audience/readership.

From the work that I have seen, it is clear that some of you have worked very hard and are achieving a high level but some others are not reaching the level expected and may have to have another go at the assignments.

In addition, you should have completed the analysis of the Levis Print advert and the Coca Cola moving image advert as well as reflections on the seat belt advert we watched and your own choice of advert. These pieces of work will be leveled shortly.

Other home learning to be finished: representation collage, The Game film, storyboard for advert competition.

If you have not completed these various elements we will need to discuss your progress.
