2. Approach
• You need to discuss the progression
from AS to A2
• You can outline how challenged real
media conventions alongside discussing
how you included them in your
productions
• Relate to the wider context and you
knowledge of genre, narrative
3. Moving Image Prelim

• Again, limited textual analysis skills
• Which fed into no real planning.
• Used videos about 180 degree rule, match on
action and shot distances.
• No filming experience
• How were these incorporated into sequence?
• Camera Shake?
• Did, like this video, you break the 180 degree
rule through lack of experience?
• Had you not thought about sound levels and
lighting?
4. Features to discuss
• Editing Pace (number of shots, length of
shots)
• Use of Intertitles, logos.
• Use of locations (variety)
• Lighting
• Characters (type, how many)
• Costume
• Use of dialogue
• Sound (diegetic & non-diegetic)
5. Theory
• Think about semiotics when justifying
decisions that you’ve made.
(Signs and symbols)
• Think about genre when justifying
decisions made.
6. Micro Detail
• You discuss the macro features of your
work by discussing the micro detail:
• Video – editing, cinematography, mise-
en-scene & sound
7. Cross Media
• The need for continuity
between products
• Choosing mise-en-
scene, fonts etc with a
particular set of
connotations.

8. Being Reflective
• Remember to state how using real
media conventions or challenging them
benefitted your production.
• Refer to;
• Professional practice
• Aesthetic appeal of your work
• Does it fit the genre?
• You could refer to audience feedback to
help you with this.
