learner response

1) Type up any feedback or comments from your paper in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to).

- You actually show you know the case studies pretty well BUT..
-..you don't answer the question. In fact, I still don't know which Q you answered: 5 or 6
- key words were: Q5- convergence   Q6-narrative 
- you don't use either word in your essay. 

2) Did you succeed in meeting or exceeding your target grade in AS Media? If not, how many additional marks do you need across Section A and Section B to achieve your target grade?

-No, its evident that in my essays I know all the content but I struggle to apply it to the question. Also, i lack in having a strong structure, which flows through out. 

3) Read through the mark scheme. Pay particular attention to pages 5-8 that has anticipated content for each of the questions in Section A. How many of these potential points did you make? Did you successfully answer the questions?

-

4) Which was your strongest question in Section A? Why did you do better in that particular question?

-I personally think my strongest question was  question 1, which was : How is the camera work used in the trailer to show the excitement of playing ' Call Of Duty Ghost'?. In this question I utilized several media terminology to explain few points and make it flow. But the issue I had their was I drifted off and never based it all on what the question was asking.


5) Which was your weakest question in Section A? Again, try and identify why this happened. Did you misinterpret the question? Did you run out of time?

- My weakest question in this exam was perhaps the institution question, which was : How are the links with other brands and media products used in the trailer to promote ' Call Of Duty Ghosts' . This is because I had issues explaining the different brand identity it offers. At this moment I didn't really understand what brand identity really was. 

6) Rewrite your answer for your weakest question in Section A. This should now be a detailed, three-paragraph 12-mark response.

Question:  How are links with other brands and media  products used in the trailer to promote ' Call of Duty Ghost?

Firstly, Call of Duty is a first person shooter game franchise. The series began on Microsoft Windows and expanded onto consoles and handheld. The developers of Call of Duty are Sledgehammer. The developers companies are shown at the end of the advert under the game title and the release date. This shows that 'Call of Duty' has contributed with Sledgehammer. This promotes the developers because the viewers would know they created it. For instance; more people would watch it, then people would buy the game and finally the developers would get more recognition and fame.
