AS to A2: your evaluation question powerpoint for G324
For AS Media coursework you had to answer 7 evaluation questions.
At A2 Media there are FOUR questions and you will be able to develop some good answers here even after 3 weeks
from the end of your AS course. Much more will need to be added next term. Try to make all your slides here contain
images and clear graphics. Save all this very carefully please.
1.What have you learnt from similar media products?
1.Take at least 4 screenshots from your chosen trailer then place them on slides with 4 stills from your completed animations to describe the conventions of this format.2.Take a screen shot of your Magazine Front Cover draft and compare it with a similar magazine to describe the conventions3.Use the following terms to help you create some annotations eg
Stereotypes and types.
•Mise en scene as significant
•Realism and authentic representations and performances and motivation
Question 1: conventions of TV soap – learning from real media texts
• Enigmas and genres and parallel narratives invite audiences• Trailer conventions; use of media languages; montage editing• Representations of time; past, present and parallel; see
“previously on” trailers• Genres represented; melodrama, crime, romantic, horror,
documentary (or hybrid)• Stereotypes and types. Small scale and complex “heroes and
villains”• Title sequences and title cards – representations and repetitions• Brand or channel graphics e.g. “SKINS” or “E4” logo• Media languages – camera (shots and movement), editing and
sound are constantly active; use of montages and 2 shot + MCU + CU and reverse angle edits
• Music as subtext- lyrics and/or genre are relevant.• Multiple POVs. Audience POV; open and closed narratives (when
the actors know less than the audience or when the audience is not given key information)
• Representations, gender, race, class, region and other demographic types
• Media debates reflected in trailer and ancillary print products. A media debate is a current news topic that is very popular in news media especially tabloids
• Mise en scene as significant• Realism and authentic representations and performances and
motivation• Narrative coherence; it makes sense
Question 1: conventions of TV soap – learning from real media texts
Please try to make at least 5 points that illustrate the links between your
finished animation and draft front cover. ALWAYS use print screens to help you. Add some comment from the two slides of comments below
Question 2: effective links between soap trailer and 2 ancillaries
• Genre defined by all 3; familiar and new• Brand constructed by all 3; channel + representations
consistent in all• Ancillaries as synthesis; conflict , enigma, interrogation or
illustration• Synergy; shared content and ideas across all 3 products• Icons and signs; BRAND recognition• Codes; connotations• Use of star, regional or genre representation• Message stated; challenging audiences; questions and sub
questions; media debates evoked; media debates unify all 3
• Mode of address declared; cultural level; popular, niche, ethnic
• POV described• Repetition of key themes and representations• Audience pleasures anticipated• Reality represented• Postmodern representations; ironic use of familiar
media clichés• Channels and schedules are all important as links
between these products
Question 2: effective links between soap trailer and 2 ancillaries
3.How many ways can you get audiences to look at and comment on your animation? How did
you record their responses?
Eg via classroom demo, blog, your website, Facebook, Twitter link, YouTube, phone link, email or print questionnaire?
4.What did you learn about the possibilities and limitations of the digital technologies you used?
For example; stills digital cameras and their settings, focus and zoom, saving jpegs,
Powerpoint tools on PCs, use of blogs to teach you, starting your own G mail and
BLOGGER blog site, your use of the posting and sharing, did quality of the image suffer? Were there other animation building sites
you tried? How well did they work?
Holiday homework; please save one of these into your favourites to continue to find an example to base your work on next yaer
EITHER: SOAP TRAILER http://holysoap.channel5.com/
OR: FILM TRAILERS http://trailers.apple.com/
How did you use your CREATIVITY here?
This refers to your work to CREATING and SOLVING PROBLEMS in the
cardboard cutting as much as the digital stages
How can you describe your CREATIVE WORK since Mon 13 June?
