Ignite presentation learner response

1) Type up your feedback in full including the ratings out of five for each of the categories. 

Research - 5
music video - 4
language - 4
representations - 3
audience and industry - 5
delivery - 5
Total - 26

  • Superb, confident introduction - love the key words/ideas that sum up the video.
  • description of the video in terms of tone, colour is lovely. Converse sponsor perfect too
  • Nostalgia culture concept is excellent, perhaps a little too much text on screen but linking to representation works really well.
  • Camera shots - all fair points but for statement of intent you'll need to discuss actual shots and their meaning.
  • clear thought into casting, costume, colour grading excellent planning
  • audience addressed impressively across multiple slides including demographics and pleasures
  • industry contexts spot on - clearly researched and brilliantly justified
  • love the magazine title! not much planning beyond that element but I like the honesty and there is also limited time in the ignite format.

Q&A
  • opening Q on narrative is helpful - confidently answered and justified
  • excellent answer on mainstream/genre - useful question
  • superb handling of Q&A outstanding presentation 

2) Use this feedback, comments from peers and your own reflection on your presentation to self-assess and write your own detailed WWW and EBI for your coursework concept and presentation as a whole.

WWW: I clearly established my idea and the thoughts and intentions behind what i would like to do for my music video and magazine, defining how my concept fits the brief and elaborating on the social contexts that I would like present for the enjoyability of the audience. 

EBI: I could have expanded more on my magazine and the types of things I would include within it while also making my slides less wordy and have more in terms of camera shots to create different representations within my video.

3) Write a paragraph discussing how your presentation will lead into your actual coursework production. Do you need to update your statement of intent? Does your concept offer enough clarity? Is it appropriate for the audience specified in the brief? Is it achievable to film with the resources you have available? Can you add media terminology or theory to your statement of intent now you have reflected on your presentation and seen others? 

I believe that I am happy with how my concept has come out and will continue to pursue making what i had described within my presentation but i will have to change a few things in my statement of intent such as adding camera shots and why I'm using them but also changing up a few sentences to include why I believe Indie/Alt rock is mainstream. I think that overall my concept fits completely into the brief and I will be able to get the resources I need without a problem. I will also be adding more theory and media terminology to my statement of intent as I remember that some of the best presentations had well thought out theorists to back up their concepts.

Marxism & hegemony: blog tasks

Task 1: Mail Online review of Capital 1) Re-read the  Mail Online review of  Capital . Why does it suggest that  Capital  features a left-wing ideology? Capital was as stuffed full with fashionable causes as Jeremy Corbyn’s function diary. 2) Choose  three  quotes from the review that are particularly critical of  Capital  and paste them into your blogpost. Do you agree with the criticisms? Why? 'With a fizzle like a firework on a wet night, Capital (BBC1) dribbled to a soggy ending.' 'the crime was handed from one cardboard character to the next. That’s not a whodunnit, it’s a cop-out.' 'Everything British came in for a dose of loathing' I think that some of the criticism is fair and that Capital did feel like it did not come to a satisfying conclusion as you might think it would from the stress and fears of the characters in the first episode and are wrapped up in a way that feels like it was done for the sake of just getting the series done and...

Blinded By The Light: case study

Background and Production 1) What is the story behind the production of the film? is a rites of passage comedy drama directed by  Gurinder Chadha , who also directed  Bend It Like Beckham . Set in 1987, it revisits Manzoor's teenage years and much of it is directly based on real events. One unlikely consequence of this is that his teenage friendship with Amolak has now been immortalised – not something either of them could have imagined in their wildest dreams. 2) What was the audience reaction to the film? audiences found personal connections to the story. I could not have predicted that Israeli women in Jerusalem, white teenage American boys in Omaha, Nebraska and older white women in Australia who had seen the film would all contact me on social media and thank me for telling their story. I had not expected to be approached, at screenings from Glasgow to Seattle, by people who seemingly had nothing in common with the protagonist but said they had connected emotionally with ...

Deutschland 83: case study

  Introduction: Reviews and features Read the following reviews and features on  Deutschland 83 : The Guardian - Your next box set: Deutschland 83 The Guardian - Deutschland 83 Pity the Germans don't like it 1) Find one positive aspect and one criticism of  Deutschland 83  in the reviews. created an irresistible export: a funky exercise in pop nostalgia underpinned by actual events.  It’s a perfect moment in a near-perfect series 2) Why does the second Guardian article suggest the Germans didn't like the show? By focusing the story around Martin Rauch, a young East German border guard going undercover in the west, it doesn’t just make the viewer empathise with a Stasi agent on a human level – in the way The Lives of Others did – it makes us engage with the socialist regime’s worldview, in which a military exercise in West Germany poses a potentially existential threat. 3) Find three 'below the line' comments from either of the Guardian articles. What did th...
