Today's Task: Create your own revision presentation for the other two key areas of textual analysis: Mise En Scene and Sound.
Present your ideas as a powerpoint document, explaining the terms that are on your Media Terminology Glossary. Try and include examples if you can, but as long as you revise each term that will be fine. Save your presentations for next lesson.

Deadline Day Final Instructions

Hand in your final portfolio by putting these three elements into your blue coursework folder. However, DO NOT THROW ANYTHING AWAY keep any draft work in your plastic folders.

1. Your final magazine extract - Front Cover, Double Page Spread and Contents Page.
2. Research and planning powerpoint.

Once you have completed your work and handed your folder in, you need to create a blog with the Blogger app via Google and upload your products as images.

Draft Magazine Evaluation

You need to answer the following questions in as much detail as possible. This is a very important part of this project.

• Answer each question in as much detail as possible. Add examples from all parts of your work.
• How effective was your research into similar magazines and relevant target audiences? What did you learn from your research into these two areas? In what ways did this shape the creation of your magazine?
• What creative decisions did you have to make at the different stages of your magazine production? How did your magazine change as your work progressed?
• How closely does your magazine follow the forms and conventions of existing magazines? Gives examples of real magazines you reference.
• How successful is your finished magazine? What are its strengths and weaknesses?

Once you have completed your evaluation. Print out a copy for your folder.

NEXT STEPS: Return to designing your magazine and complete your final version for the deadline.
