Media Mr Halsey Course work

  RANA, Arkin Mark: 4 Grade: D Comments for AQA: This is a largely clear statement of intent that shows a good concept that matches the TV crime drama brief. It fits the target audience appropriately and feels like a ‘Netflix style’ show. Media language elements are the strongest element here – good consideration of mise-en-scene and sound with connotations addressed. Camera shots weaker as lacking specific plans. Narrative disequilibrium is covered and clear idea of where extract appears in the overall series. Representation is weaker, lacking the depth required for the higher levels in the mark scheme. Point on diversity is valid but lacking terminology or theory. Audience is addressed briefly with some use of theory (Blumler & Katz) although again lacking the depth for the higher levels. Lacking more detailed discussion of target audience too. Digital convergence and print brief are not addressed. Feedback:

WWW:  -Almost minute of video, immediately engaging with some really nice camerawork and editing. EBI: -Narrative (at least wider narrative) not entirely clear from this extract so that's something to consider for main production. -Audio quality in trees - a lot of wind noise but dialogue is audible. -I think the text on screen works for this but perhaps a little too much information? Also feels a little sci-fi in places with the music and font. 2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write three WWW bullet points and three EBI bullet points for your work. WWW: -Really liked the concept, well thought out, editing was nice -Good graphics -Enigma was good -Good suspense EBI: -The sound and dialogue is covered by the wind at one point 3) How effectively did you complete the objective you lai
