Preparatory tasks
1 (a) Research
In preparation for the production task, learners should carry out research into professionally produced media products that are similar in genre, style and form to the media products proposed in their chosen production brief.
Learners should deconstruct, analyse and make notes on these professionally produced media products so that they can further develop knowledge and understanding of their chosen media form’s distinctive media language, for example:
• how genre conventions are employed
• how and why intertextuality is employed
• how combinations of media language elements are used to create meaning and construct representations that address an intended audience.
Learners should be prepared to analyse the distinctive media language elements appropriate to the brief chosen, listed below:
Magazines as part of a cross-media brief:
• layout
• typography
• use of language
• use of images.
1 (b) Planning
Learners should produce planning materials for their individual NEA cross-media production which outline the intentions of their final production.
Candidates are encouraged to explore appropriate ways of producing relevant planning materials based upon their own strengths and resources.
The following list of planning materials is purely indicative:
• draft script
• storyboard
• location report(s)
• notes on casting and mise-en-scène considerations
• mock-up of a print advert layout or mock-up of a webpage
• rough cuts/drafts
• audience research and feedback.
By the end of the 30 hours students need to hand in:
1. non-assessed research notes and planning materials to aid the authentication of work
2. Statement of Intent
3. a teacher assessed cross-media production
4. a non-exam assessment cover sheet that clearly indicates the contribution of any unassessed materials learners used. This should be completed by the teacher.
