WWW: Some interesting points and good use of media language (make sure you are highlighting
media terminology in every post). Build on the brilliant work you did at GCSE (and remember the
time you put in to earn it!)
EBI: You are missing work - there's no advert analysis of an advert of your choice. In terms of what
you do have, check your understanding or preferred and oppositional readings (Hall) - I think you
have them the wrong way round for the RBK 50 Cent advert. You also need to be writing in more
depth. By only writing one paragraph, you don't go into enough detail on any of the individual
aspects you are analysing. Use a different paragraph for each aspect and you'll soon notice you are
writing in more depth. Finally, you need to work on your media consumption, particularly news. You
can use Twitter to access it but you definitely need an understanding of the media world.
LR: Reflect on your first month of AS Media. What is your strongest piece of work so far? What is
your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?
My strongest piece of work I've done so far would be the work on mise-en-scene as I have a better understanding on it compared to others. In comparison, my weakest piece of work would be 'Film Noir' as it isn't as easy to understand and needs to be practised slightly more. Over the rest of the course I will need to work on writing in-depth and also taking more interest in the media world.
