Preliminary exercise feedback and learner response

  Preliminary exercise feedback and learner response WWW: There’s lots to credit here – it is unmistakeably an advert that clearly outlines the benefits of the product with the use of AI generated voiceover. It clearly gives the audience reasons to buy the product and you’ve included conventions of TV advertising like the brand at the end, a slogan and product shots.   EBI: You have some preliminary planning posted to your blog but not every task was complete so that’s one to keep an eye on for pre-production and the main coursework adverts. Planning is so important!   In terms of your preliminary exercise, the key feedback is the visuals – the shots just aren’t interesting enough to keep the audience’s attention for the duration of the advert.

Year 11 Paper 1 assessment: Learner response

  Year 11 Paper 1 assessment: Learner response : 1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to). 2) Look at the  mark scheme for this assessment . For Question 2 (12 mark unseen) use the indicative content in the mark scheme to identify  three  points that you could have referred to in your answer. -  Athletic body connotes that the subject is in condition and well prepared for the ‘battle’. • No direct address but the subject’s eyes are focused on pushing the heavy tyre (physical exertion) which connotes determination and power in the face of adversity. This is reinforced by his facial expression which has his mouth open in a roar which connotes supremacy and effort. • Dress code has connotations of strength since the trainers are engaged in the activity and the clothes are functional and appropriate for task so they connote success and durability. The make-up shows sweat and dirt which has connotations of being ready for action and taking

Coursework: Preliminary exercise 2024

  Coursework: Preliminary exercise 2024 : In my ad, I will make a stop motion, where the smoothie will relax in the tree feeling happy and all (personnification), 5 seconds later in to the advert, the drink will then want to spread happiness to all living things shuch as trees, humans etc. it will wander around the park spreading colours and joy in the miserable park and then the ad will end with the brand and the slogan which is "Taste great, feel great". https://youtu.be/63TBaqY3QO4
