2. Blog
Is the number of blog posts important or is the
amount of varied content more important?
A three month project might be reasonably expected to
produce a blog a day but this may come as a multi-post
catch-up sometimes. We should expect a clear account
of the journey of the project to be built up but what is
there is more important than just the sheer number of
posts. there is a big discrepancy in what we see so some
candidates may only have 5 posts, others 105, so it
would be hard to see these get the same mark!
3. Ancillary Task
You need to select 2 out of 3 forms of
media.
60 marks allocated for construction
20 for planning
20 for evaluation
4. Digipack (Level 4)

Examples of student digipack and magazine
advert from the summer. level 4 work. A digipack
should be four or six frames and a magazine
advert should follow conventions in terms of
promotion of the product. these are very good
examples.
5. Digipack (Level 4)
Consider doing some research on how digipacks are put
together: http://www.mediaheaven.co.uk/digipak.htm
7. Evaluation Questions
The key principles for OCR are that there are a number
of Questions which must be specifically addressed in
the evaluation and that you should think of it as a
creative reflection task rather than a written essay.
The evaluation has to be presented digitally, but it can
take a number of different forms and you are actively
encouraged to be experimental with this.
8. Evaluation Questions
1. In what ways does your media product use, develop or
challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
2. How effective is the combination of your main product
and ancillary texts?
3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
4.How did you use media technologies in the construction
and research, planning and evaluation stages?
10. Evaluation Questions
The following blogs give creative methods of
presenting your evaluation questions:

11. Evaluation Questions
The evaluation can make use of any digital format, but in order
to get top marks, will need to really engage with the potential of
the medium, so if it is on a blog, we would expect to see lots of
use of pictures, links and video, for example. If it is on a
powerpoint, the same would apply, but we would probably see
even less written text, as we would expect the powerpoint to be
presented by someone, so any writing would be just there as
prompts.
12. Presentation ideas in a grid
Selecting nine frames from your opening and presenting
them as a grid, just like they use on artofthetitle to illustrate
openings. Each of your frames has to represent a different
aspect of the film you have made, which you will discuss in
more detail. So you might select nine frames, each of which
represents one of the following:
The title of the film Setting/location Costumes and props
Camerawork and editing Title font and style Story
Genre How characters are introduced Special effects
14. Presentation as a video
You can integrate some shots from your video into a sort
of mini director commentary . You could also add
cutaways to link your ancillary tasks.
15. Youtube Tags
You can add youtube tags to illustrate precisely how the
audience is addressed and to link to other texts online.
16. Audience Profile/Feedback
Do an audience profile for a typical member of
your audience as part of your research.
Interview a typical member of your audience talking
about your media product.
