This document provides information and instructions for Year 13 Media students regarding their Advanced Portfolio coursework for the first term. Students will complete one main portfolio product along with two ancillary products on a chosen topic. They will work in groups of up to four people on projects involving skills like graphic design, writing, filming and more. Example portfolio briefs are given involving creating a music video, film trailer, short film or newspaper. Students are instructed to set up a blog to document their research and planning process, and examiners in previous years found the most effective blogs contained ongoing documentation through videos, audio recordings, images and hyperlinks.
