Year 12 Blog Hug 2015-16

Students, all of your blogs are here for display in the public domain.  Simply click on the links to see what everyone else studying Media at Bridge is doing and compare your blog to theirs (if you want to).

Take pride in your work. 

Keep it personalised and rich in content, and update your site regularly - you can edit it right up until we have given you your final grade, but try and get into good habits by blogging straight after lessons.

Since the coursework lessons are covered on Monday and Tuesday, it is even more important that you complete the work by the end of Friday ahead of Monday's lesson to avoid falling behind.

Creating a blog for your Media AS Coursework

One of the first things you will need to do at the start of the year is create a blog account.  You can use this to keep an online record of all your research and planning linked to film openings, and eventually you will use it to demonstrate progress of your coursework from an initial idea to fully realised film opening.

There are a number of blog platforms you can use.  Last year, students used WIX, Weebly or blogger (the same format I am using).

www.wix.com

www.weebly.com

www.blogger.com

It is important that you look at a range of blog hubs and see what students are capable of before deciding, but you will need to decide by the end of this week.

Deadline now closed

Thank you to all students who have completed their coursework.

I have looked at everyone's blogs and can now mark fairly and accurately across both groups.  Some blogs looked unpublished and I was unable to find finished sequences and evaluations. I have had to mark them as incomplete.

If this is through no fault of your own, please contact me no later than 8.30am on Tuesday so that I can give mr Gourley accurate marks and data.

Thanks
Mr Mayers

G321 - The Evaluation

For those of you who didn't feel it necessary to concentrate whilst I talked through this evaluation, please find the embedded powerpoint here:

Media Studies Coursework Evaluation Student Guide from alevelmedia

Please note, you have three weeks in which to complete this evaluation.  It is worth 20 marks (20% - two grades) of your final coursework.

Do a bad job of your evaluation and it will make the rest of your coursework look bad.  Moderators usually look at the evaluations first, or after watching your final product.  If they are not convinced by either, then they will scrutinize your research and planning materials in more detail.

You will present your film openings and talk through your evaluation during the last week this term.

 

Construction and First Draft Completion

By the end of Friday 7th March I would like to see your first cut available to view online and published on your blog with some reflection.

You have been emailed ASSESSED PIECE 8 and ASSESSED PIECE 9 planning sheets and also given them in class to help you complete your coursework and get your blogs up to date.

There are a record number of Entries this June because there is no longer a January entry, therefore moderators will see a wide range of excellent practice.  Make yours stand out.  If you're too embarrassed to share your blog and video with friends and family, then you obviously haven't taken enough care and effort, so you need to fix this in the next three weeks.

Some useful links to keep you going:

http://examplesofwork13.weebly.com/as.html  here you can see video work (bottom of page) from a U and every grade up to an A*.

There is some examiner commentary around on the website and you can see what they say about planning and research content and even look at some more blogs.

I STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU ALL READ THIS!
