WWW: You’ve basically got no work on your blog: a few brief answers from the first week and nothing else. Do we have the right blog link? Is your work somewhere else? I really hope there’s an explanation for this.

EBI: You clearly need to ensure all missing work is on your Media blog urgently. It’s common to have blog issues in the first couple of weeks (perhaps your work is in drafts and needs to be published?) but if you don’t complete work in Media you will fail the course – it is as simple as that. You must remember that 60% of the GCSE is coursework – if you’re not willing to complete the work then we need to urgently find you an option that is 100% exam based. The work you need to post: a completed LIAR film poster analysis; Fruit bowl; Camerawork photo storyboard pictures and analysis.


LR: Complete and post all missing work urgently. Then, reflect on your first month of Media. What do you feel is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?

My strongest piece of work is my fruit bowl

My weakest is my 10 answers

I need to develop my phototshop skills a lot more

In this shot we see a medium close up of the 6 antagonists, the policemen. In this we can see their facial expressions very clearly which kind of gives us a understanding of whats going on. This shot was when the police caught eye contact with the man they are chasing



   In this shot a wide/establishing shot is used because this is used you can understand the surrondings. The camera movement follows the policemen by using a whip pan as they chase after John. Another camera movement used in this scene was a crane which came down from a high angle to show the police getting closer to John and make it more tense                                                           .





The camera shot used here is another medium close up which showed Johns facial expressions and there is also a eye line match between John and one of the guards in this scene which makes the scene even more tense and makes the audience wonder what will happen next. You can tell this scene is taken in the alleyway by looking behind John and analysing.
