My Media Pitch
The document discusses Laura Mayall's plans for her media film trailer project on the genre of romantic drama. Some key points:
- The film will be set in 1940s England and focus on a young couple, Rosie and Jay, whose relationship is separated by Jay going off to war.
- Generic conventions of the romantic drama genre include an obstacle (war in this case) preventing lovers from being together and often ending with their separation.
- Planning includes researching the 1940s time period for costumes, locations, and plot details. Actors have been cast and costume and hair styling will aim for historical accuracy.
- The plot involves childhood scenes of the characters transitioning to their romance as young
Media Evaluation Question 1
The document discusses how the media product, a film trailer and poster for a romantic drama film set in 1940s, uses and develops conventions of the genre while also challenging some conventions. The trailer follows conventions like focusing on a major obstacle (war) separating the lovers, but challenges conventions by revealing a potential plot point (the male character's death). The poster similarly develops conventions from other posters analyzed, while challenging magazine cover conventions by including additional images rather than just the main one. Costuming and styling in the trailer also develop conventions from films like "The Notebook" set in the same time period.
Beyond the buzz: Transforming Instruction with the Flipped Approach - From L...
This document discusses flipped learning, which involves moving direct instruction outside of the group learning space through videos and other individual activities. This frees up class time for interactive learning and application of concepts. The document provides:
1) A definition of flipped learning from the Flipped Learning Network.
2) An overview of the history and key components of flipped learning, including instructional videos for homework and active learning activities in class.
3) Examples of how flipped learning has been implemented successfully in various courses, focusing on increased interaction, engagement, and mastery of concepts. Students and instructors generally expressed positive views of the approach.
Flipped elt classroom
The document discusses the flipped classroom model for English language teaching. It defines a flipped classroom as using videos and other tools to take the place of direct instruction, and using class time for interactive learning activities. It notes important aspects of an effective flipped ELT classroom include planning, a learning management system, engaging videos, web 2.0 tools, and engaging in-class activities. The document also provides examples of how one teacher implemented a flipped classroom, including assigning videos, quizzes, reading and writing activities. It recommends giving students information about the model, adding interactivity to videos, and being open to student feedback.
Evaluation Question 3 - What have you learnt from audience feedback?
The feedback provided positive responses to various elements of the film trailer, poster, and magazine cover. The trailer's use of music to set tone, creative editing decisions, and final shot were all commented on. The association between the three promotional items and their representation of the film's time period and storyline were recognized. Overall, the feedback indicated the materials successfully promoted curiosity about the film and targeted the intended teenage/young adult female audience. A few suggestions were made but the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
