A2 compulsory question
The document provides guidance for students taking an AS Communication and Culture exam. It outlines the key concepts covered in the AS course that should be revisited, including communication, culture, context, code, value, representation, power, and identity. These concepts form the foundation for the A2 course and additional concepts of ideology, mode of address, discourse, narrative, and technology. The compulsory exam question will involve analyzing an unseen passage about society or culture in light of these concepts, adopting a critical stance. Students are advised to practice this technique and provided guidance on how to structure their response by summarizing the passage's key points, context, and purpose before addressing each concept in a separate paragraph.
Fictions Intro
This document discusses how cultural products and practices communicate through fictions or myths. Myths are ways of explaining and organizing perceptions of the world to make shared cultural understandings seem natural. The document examines how fictions define culture by communicating cultural norms and values, and providing structural frameworks for people to enact and tell stories about their culture. It prompts analyzing how myths work in stories to deliver familiar meanings and cultural systems of understanding.
Vladimir Propp's and Tzvetan Todorov’s Narrative Theory
The document discusses Vladimir Propp's theory of narrative roles and applies it to the Pixar film "The Incredibles." It identifies the main characters - Mr. Incredible as the hero, Syndrome as the villain, Mirage and the public as heroines, and Frozone, Helen, Dash, Violet, and Edna Mode as helpers. It also identifies the first omnidroid and Syndrome's computer as donors and Edna Mode as providing brief mentorship. The document then discusses Todorov's theory of narrative structure and applies it to the five stages of equilibrium, disruption, recognition, attempt to repair, and new equilibrium seen in the plot of "The Incredibles."
Barriers To Communication
The document identifies and describes common barriers to effective communication such as cultural barriers, language barriers, physical barriers, emotional barriers, gender barriers, interpersonal barriers, and perceptual barriers. It focuses on cultural barriers and language barriers, explaining that cultural barriers can relate to business practices while language barriers can occur due to unfamiliar terminology, lack of a shared language, or misunderstandings. The document provides tips for overcoming these barriers, such as respecting cultural beliefs, using body language appropriately, understanding customer needs in a business context, and using visual aids, simple language, translators, or rephrasing when facing language barriers.
As revision 2012
This document provides an overview of key concepts related to communication and culture. It discusses topics such as roles, memory, the self, theories of communication, non-verbal communication, language, media, customs, and the relationship between popular culture and high culture. Key terms that are defined include semantic memory, episodic memory, the Johari window, ego states, the ideal self versus the realistic self, and barriers to communication. Frameworks for analyzing communication and culture are also introduced, such as Cooley's looking glass self, Goffman's theories of social performances, and semiotic analysis of signs and symbols.
Communication and Culture
A guest Lecture by Obioha Durunna for ALES204: Communications: Theory & Practise class run by Dr. Jessica Laccetti. Obi regaled the class with examples of how easy it is to misunderstand cultures different from our own and that tolerance is key.
Todorov’s narrative theory
The document outlines Todorov's narrative theory, which states that most stories follow the same five-step pattern or plot structure. The five steps are: 1) Equilibrium, where characters are content, 2) A Disruption, which disturbs the happiness, 3) Realization, where the problem is recognized, 4) Restored Order, where characters try to repair the damage, and 5) Equilibrium Again, where the problem is resolved and normality resumes. The document provides examples from The Simpsons Movie to illustrate each step of the narrative theory.

Evaluation
The document provides details on three images created for a final major project focusing on mental health issues. The first image depicts Dissociative Identity Disorder through three blurred images of the same model in different clothes and positions, representing different alters. The second image portrays a shattered sense of security through a black and white mid-shot of a model that was digitally shattered. The third combines two blurred images of a model with happy and sad expressions to represent the rapid mood swings of trauma-induced mental health issues.
Preparing images
Louise Maher used Photoshop to edit an image for a front cover. She used auto tone to make the image less blurry and more clear. She increased the vibrancy of the eyes and lips using the polygonal lasso tool and vibrancy adjustment to make them stand out more. She also applied a black and white filter and decreased the offset exposure to make the blacks stand out more.

Magazine article
Cara Delevingne has had a meteoric rise in the fashion industry since being named Model of the Year in 2013. While she enjoys modeling, her true passion is acting. She is currently pursuing acting roles in addition to her modeling career. Cara has found inner peace and now uses her platform to help others dealing with issues like depression and family problems.

Pitch script
The photographer will conduct an art therapy photography project portraying symptoms of trauma-induced mental health illnesses like PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder, and psychosis. Each image will depict a different feeling or emotion associated with these conditions. The target audience is teens through middle-aged people, especially those with direct or indirect experience dealing with mental health issues, who want realistic and clear portrayals. To accurately capture these illnesses, the photographer will draw on their own experiences with trauma as well as thorough research and an array of production and post-production techniques.
Magazine analysis

Student news programme review
The student produced a radio news programme for E6 Radio aimed at students aged 16-19. The programme included three stories: a copy-only news story about a woman who fell from a bridge, an interview on youth mental health issues with a college councillor, and a human interest interview with someone leaving the college. The student felt the stories were suitable for the target audience and researched them thoroughly. While the audio quality was good, the student felt their delivery could have been more professional and articulated. Some editing improvements could have included a better introduction to the third story and closing the show instead of abruptly ending.
Pr7 me and my movies

It summarizes the plot of each film, noting that Taken and Lucy follow the conventional theme of revenge, while Wanted breaks conventions by featuring a vulnerable male protagonist protected by a strong female. The document also analyzes how each film's trailer uses techniques like characters, narrative, iconography, setting, and audio/visual codes to attract audiences and fit within the action thriller genre.
Portrait evaluation
The student photographer produced 10 images for a music magazine profile of an indie/pop artist. Most images featured the model against graffiti-covered walls or in nature to suit the genre. Close-ups aimed to create an intimate portrayal for the article. Composition and clarity were strengths, but more variety in shots, instruments, and editing could improve the images to clearly convey their purpose. Manual mode was used to control settings.
Landscape evaluation

Images 1-2 and 4-5 aimed to showcase the nightlife by capturing sunset colors reflected in the water. Images 6-7 featured the buildings parallel to a lake. Images 8-10 promoted the BBC buildings at Salford Quays, especially through the use of artificial lighting in Images 8 and 9-10.
