Progression Assessment Advanced Level

SECTION A: ANALYSING MEDIA LANGUAGE AND REPRESENTATION

You should use relevant theories and relevant subject specific terminology where appropriate.

Print resource 1: the front page of the DAILY MAIL



Print resource 2: The front page and article from the DAILY MIRROR which you have studied with Miss Lakin. You should have the resource and fact sheet but I will put it on SMHW in case.

Compare how these pages from the DAILY MAIL and the DAILY MIRROR construct versions of reality.

In your answer you must:

-consider the choices media producers make when constructing versions of reality
- consider the similarities and differences in the representations
- make judgements and draw conclusions about how far the representations relate to relevant media contexts.

30 marks

This question requires an extended response. You will be assessed on the quality of your written response, including the ability to construct and develop a sustained line of reasoning which is coherent, relevant, substantiated and logically structured.

SECTION B: UNDERSTANDING MEDIA INDUSTRIES AND AUDIENCES

a) What is meant by an independent film? [2]

b) Briefly explain what you understand by vertical integration. [2]

c) Explain TWO features of mainstream film production. Refer briefly to BLACK PANTHER to support your points. [6]

In Question 3(d) you will be rewarded for drawing together knowledge and understanding from across your full course of study, including different areas of the theoretical framework and media contexts.

d) Explain how economic contexts shape independent films. Refer to I, DANIEL BLAKE to support your points. [15]

Plan your answer and write a full response.

Your submission will allow me to see if you have processed all the information provided on the web-log.

It will also allow you to try an exam style question.

The answers will be marked and you will be given a grade. The mark scheme will then be shared.

You will receive written feedback and a personal learning checklist about how you can improve.
