The student's group found their preliminary task difficult because they did not create a storyboard, which would have helped them plan camera angles and shots. Their main task was better planned with a detailed storyboard and props. The main task also had special effects like sound effects and CCTV to make it more dramatic and realistic, while the preliminary task only used different camera angles with no action or special effects. Both videos lacked dialogue, which could have made them more interesting.

They also upgraded their equipment from school cameras to better quality gear. For editing, they found iMovie easier to use than Premiere Pro. Regarding sound, they incorporated more original effects and balanced levels better. Collaboration in their group improved as they distributed roles well and stuck to a schedule. Finally, they added an ident for the full product but feel it could have been more distinctive through additional elements like unique sound or animation.
Question 1 evaluation
The document discusses how the opening of a student-made motor sport film uses and challenges conventions of the genre. It uses conventional titles and credits, but an unconventional protagonist who is disabled. Locations like the race track are conventional. Costumes subvert stereotypes to show how the protagonist has changed. Camera work uses standard establishing and tracking shots. Editing contrasts fast-paced flashbacks with slower present-day scenes to convey a change in the protagonist's life. Overall the narrative draws on conventions like settings but also subverts expectations through the protagonist's disability.
Question 2 evaluation
This document summarizes how a film represents social groups through its use of stereotypes, locations, characters, camerawork, sound, and editing. The film focuses on the stereotype of disability, with the main character being disabled. It uses typical motor sport film locations like a racetrack and garage. Through props and clothing, the one main character subverts stereotypes of youth to represent the difficulties of being disabled. The camerawork, sound design, and editing aim to construct a reading that conveys the character's emotions and experience of becoming disabled through flashbacks and symbolic techniques.
Film evaluation
The document analyzes the opening of a student film about a girl who does both ballet and track. It uses conventions like production company logos to look professional. Though set in real locations like a dance studio and track, it has some issues filming in these spaces. Costumes and props are used to represent youth culture and branded items to appeal to a young audience. The genre is not entirely clear at first but voiceover later establishes it is about one girl's life balancing different activities. The main character is introduced dancing to set the scene and establish the film's focus.
Critical Evaluation Question 1
1. The document discusses how the media product challenges conventions of real films. It created an original film company called POV Inc. and included typical elements like costumes, props, editing, camerawork and score but challenged conventions like using slow motion and daylight filming for suspense.
2. Both the poster and radio trailer challenged conventions. The poster was atypical by being dark/black and white without persuasive language. The radio trailer attracted without visuals through a deep voice, music and sound effects.
3. In summary, the media product included common film elements but challenged expectations through unconventional creative choices to subvert norms in thriller and drama genres. It created original marketing like a radio trailer to engage audiences.
Question 1 evaluation
The document discusses how the opening of a student film called "Driven" uses and challenges conventions of motor sport genre films. It summarizes that:
The title "Driven" has a double meaning linking to the main character's career and mindset, using audience testing to choose fonts. Character development shows the protagonist as stereotypical for the genre initially but subverts it by starting disabled. Locations include conventional race track settings shown in films like "Rush" but had limitations for student filming. Editing uses pace and filters to contrast the excitement of past flashbacks with the present boredom to imply something changed in the character's life. Overall the opening establishes conventions like shots and narrative but also subverts expectations
Evaluation Q4
The student used various new media technologies throughout the different stages of creating their 5 minute film project. They set up a blog on Blogger for the group to collaborate and share work. IMDB and Celtx were used for research and scriptwriting. Photoshop was used to create graphics and Free Music websites provided legal music and sound effects. Equipment like a zoom recorder, camera on a tripod, and Premiere Pro for editing were also utilized. Lastly, audience feedback was gathered through a questionnaire video uploaded to YouTube to help evaluate the film.

Evaluation question 7 for A Level Media
The preliminary task provided an initial learning experience but lacked depth compared to the full film opening project. The storyboard, script, and construction for the preliminary task were very basic due to its short length and limited shots. More planning, research, and complex camerawork, lighting, editing, sound design and acting were required for the full-length film opening. The evaluation of the preliminary task was also simpler than the multi-faceted evaluation needed for the larger film opening project. Overall, the preliminary task was a starting point that helped improve the filmmaking skills applied to the more serious and developed film opening piece.
Question 7 evaluation
In the preliminary task, the group created a brief storyboard and planned basic shots and edits but did not plan mise-en-scene or sound. For the final product, they did significantly more planning including casting, locations, and script drafts. They also practiced shots and researched other films. The group communicated well for the preliminary task but poorly for the final product, making the work more difficult. Through both tasks, the student learned about using different camera shots, angles, and movements to create specific effects, and improved at skills like matching shots, transitions, and incorporating music to build tension.

- Using B-roll and A-roll footage to break up interviews and add depth. More B-roll was recorded to provide options.
- Implementing smooth cross-dissolve transitions between scenes to follow professional conventions.
- Framing interview shots using the rule of thirds for effective communication and balance.
- Ensuring the background or mise-en-scene is relevant to the documentary's theme of chocolate.
- Adding a chocolate-themed sound bed and stop motion title sequence to engage audiences in non-conventional ways.
Question 7
Looking back at the preliminary task and completed product, the student learned several lessons. Shots like shot reverse shot and panning that were used in the preliminary helped create the film opening. Close-ups were also effective in both. Additionally, ensuring equipment like cameras were clean prevented issues like blurry footage. Setting the scene with establishing shots and using diegetic sounds amplified actions as with the preliminary. For the opening, an actor with experience was used instead of students and unnecessary background elements were avoided to keep viewers focused on the storyline. More editing time was spent rearranging clips for a more intense story. Research also showed titles over footage are common in film openings.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

Question 7 James Tolley
- 2. Question 7 My groups prelim task was not as well planned and we went straight into filming instead of making a story board. If we had made a story board it would have been a lot easier for my group to get the correct camera angles and shots. The main task for our project was a lot more planned out. Are story boards were a lot more detailed and we had props for this. We dressed up to play each role, as an example the dealer wearing a hood and tracksuits. Are main task was also a lot longer in length.
- 3. For are main task we used Sound effects such as the dog barking, the car alarms and sirens. We did this to create a dramatic effect and make it more realistic. Are prelim task didn’t contain any special effects which we could of put in, although we did add music for the credits. Are main task also had CCTV effects which makes it more appealing and interesting for the audience watching. The prelim task only had different camera angles with no action involved. The similarities between both videos are that they contain no dialogue. Our video could have been made more interesting if we had some speech between the characters.
