Blog feedback and Learner Response

 WWW: A promising start to GCSE Media Studies – you are almost up-to-date on your blog tasks and you are developing your analytical skills in your responses. Your photoshop parrot shows particular originality of thought.

EBI: You are missing a couple of tasks such as the Mise-en-scene Stranger Things analysis and you need to write a detailed paragraph about your chosen KFC advert (which I note is not an appropriate image you have uploaded).

Reflect on your first month of Media. What do you feel 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?

 I feel the first month has  been very positive, i feel my strongest piece of work was the parrot and weakest mise-en-scene. I feel i need to develop my analysis skills.

  Language  The dark colour scheme of the poster creates a mysterious and serious atmosphere that will attract and intrigue the selected audience. 'THE ODYSSEY' in huge capital letters makes the title stand out so people can easily identify the film. The 'DEFY THE GODS' suggest there be battle and war , conflict and huge challenges to face during the film. Institution  The way ' A FILM BY CHRISTOPHER NOLAN ' is in included shows the way they try to promote a well respected director and identify the huge figure that directed the film and also promote his involvement in the movie.
