The following comments provide insight into areas that can be improved. Remember your score for research and planning, evaluation and summer exams depend not on whether you have completed the task but how well it is completed. You can find an exemplar script on the G325 Critical Perspectives Blog (see below)

G325 Feedback

• To be honest these findings only count if you can make it quickly clear how it informed your song choice. The main aim of this question is to discuss the making of the video and ancillary tasks

• Talk about the Internet instead. What benefits did carrying out research using the internet have over collecting actual album covers? Try to give a minimum of 3 benefits

• How did using a SLR camera impact on your production ideas? Give key moments taken from your production

• Unfortunately very little physical evidence of having carried out any research produced. A discussion about the genre of horror is missing as is your textual analysis results. The examiner marking your exam question will have no idea about your blog and/or have seen your film and blog. They rely solely on the details that you provide them in your essay.

• A fair attempt however you must be careful to stick to talking about the stage noted in the essay question, in this case- planning

• For your findings to be treated as credible the examiner would expect a larger target audience population. Perhaps a mixture of quantitative and qualitative research

• What benefits did using web services such as Hotmail and Gmail have over more traditional ways of communicating?
