DISAPPOINTMENT

I can't begin to tell you how disappointed I am with some of you! How can you consider Media as an A Level choice when you don't meet deadlines and complete the work in hand? I'm lost for words.

Preliminary Task

I want to see how well you work independently. You have until next Wednesday (10th) to complete your preliminary task. This is the cover and contents page of a school/college magazine (St Mark's).
The key is planning - don't just take snaps. Your images need to be linked to your cover lines and these in turn need to be selected for your target audience. (could be 6th form, Y11, whole school) all need to be carefully planned.
Remember to set up your shots - selecting mise en scene and framing the shot. You must include a medium close up of a student but the others are your choice.
think carefully about contents page. They can be bland if you don't plan.

You also need to complete all class and homework before the deadline.
