EXAM FEEDBACK - WHOLE CLASS

  • Class Av = 65%
Strengths
  • excellent range of examples
  • revision evident
  • sound use of technical terminology
  • analysis is developing - everyone avoided the 'shopping list' essay.
  • good links back to task. A few areas drifted off but overall, good.
Areas for improvement
  • Occasional confusion of terms - eg jump cuts
  • Editing and sound underdeveloped
  • Analysis needs to be pushed more still - keep linking and comment on micro elements.
  • Don't forget about composition eg depth of field, framing etc. Look over notes again.
REMEMBER!
  • 'Analysis is contextual rather than universal in value' - eg red could suggest passion, but could suggest power, anger etc. All depends on what's happening on screen.
  • Representation is all about how the makers/producers want these characters and situations to be perceived.
  • Some are analysing areas separately, but if doing it all at the same time, you must be strict and ensure all areas are dealt with sufficiently.
