1) Why did you choose AS Media Studies? I found it interesting in GCSEs and will like to do something in the further with media such as production.

2) Did you take GCSE Media Studies (either here at Greenford or a different school)? yes

3) If you answered yes to Q2, what grade did you achieve in GCSE Media? What coursework tasks did you complete? What would you say your strengths and weaknesses were in GCSE Media? I got a B overall and completed all the coursework with an A grade folder. My strengths are mostly using Photoshop and editing software. In my opinion, using media language is my weakness as is i'm likely to forget to use hte. I will have to engrave the theory's and CLAMP. 

4) What grade do you hope to achieve in A Level Media? B and higher

5) What are your current thoughts about your next steps after A Levels - university, apprenticeship, work? I will like to go to uni outside London but still thinking about doing an apprenticeship as it could help me get a job in the media industries .

6) What do you think the biggest media story of 2016 has been and why? I think BREXIT was the biggest story as we have been in the European union for more than 40 years. In addition, most people that voted to leave were not informed enough to know what BREXIT meant to them which left the country divided. This was a huge story because it was about to effect the future generation which voted to remain but the older community voted to leave. Young people are outraged because it will not effect them as much as it will effect the youth of this country.

7) What media sources do you use to find out about news and current affairs? I watch BBC News but I get most information from Google that give news on my phone. 

8) What was the last film you watched? Deadpool

9) What is your favourite ever TV series? The Big Bang Theory  

10) How many hours do you spend online in an average day? Is this too little, too much or about right? Why? I spend most of my time on social media to connect to friends. I also like that you can connect to the whole world.

    Just a tip - if you want to achieve a B or higher in your A level then you are really going to have to spend more time on your homework and more in depth analysis rather than one word answers and sentences that sometimes don't make sense. The Brexit answer is good - you could have gone further! My key advice is MORE ANALYSIS / MORE DETAIL / MORE MEDIA TERMS! :)

By using darker colours , it make the audience feel that something is hidden to create mystery . It can also show the he is negative because black is linked with his mood.  You could say the black absorbs light and say he is learning from mistakes or that 50 cent doesn't emitted anything so he keep a lot of thing to himself. Using a simple black and white colour scheme make the consumer think more about his life and how simple it was when he was a child.  The close up show us that he is being personal. In addition, the font used is a typewrite to show what he learnt before technology.  Furthermore, fingerprint can show us that he has done a lot of crime in his time to become who he is now. The words "i am" is with 50 cent side and "what i am" to show that he did the crime to become who he is now.  The line in the middle could suggest that there is a good and bad side to him but can also show that he is no longer connect with crime. 50 cent is looking

My own power point, www: I had a handout that had good information that could intrigued the audience. It allowed the audience to have something to take from the presentation so they can use it when revising.  The starter involved the audience when so that the lesson started in a good mood and where more interested afterwards. I spoke about what they own and what they use their money on so that the audience knows how the company became more powerful. EBI I could of asked question to the audience so they could interacted with me and i could of made sure that the lesson was meaningful. This make sure that they take something away from the lesson.  explain the slide more so that the audience knew everything on screen. have a better ending so that the audience could of had a overall coclusion to finish the lesson.
