film and TV learning response

1) Type up your feedback in full (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential).

www-some good knowledge of thee CSP's especialy question 3 

ebi-more understandig of key theories(postmodernisim)

2) Read the whole mark scheme for this assessment carefully. Identify at least one potential point that you missed out on for each question in the assessment (even if you got full marks for the question).

Question 1


The poster arguably provides a good example of pastiche: media products that imitate the
style of another text, artist or time period. Although an argument can be made that
Kingsman: The Secret Service is a parody (there are definitely suggestions of comedy) the
poster as a whole asks to be taken seriously. In a parody, audiences would likely expect a
tagline that confirms the comic nature of the film. The only text appearing here is: ‘From the
director of X Men: First Class’ which would suggest the film is trying to attract an audience

looking for serious, action/superhero-based entertainment.

question 2 

The distribution and promotion was not that effective as it took them  two years to come to cinema and it only take them in 11 days to shoot it.

question 3 

Capital has been accused of left-wing bias for negative representation of wealth/upper
middle class white British people and positive representation of multiculturalism and illegal

immigrants.

The postmodern visual aesthetic draws on pastiche, using exaggerated popular culture
references and stylised mise-en-scene. Therefore representations do not reflect the genuine

social and cultural context but a nostalgic view of 1980s culture.

3) The first question demanded a response using postmodern terminology. Write a definition here of the three main terms:

Bricolage: this is when you use old and new texts like images and narrative to make something incompletely new.

Pastiche: when you use/imitate another text but are using inspiration frm it instead of mocking it.

Intertextuality:when one text is referred to another text.

4) The second question was on the film industry. Write down two points from the mark scheme about Chicken's promotion and distribution that you didn't include in your answer. 

Promotion of Chicken was through a combination of traditional marketing methods (trailer,
film poster with review quotes, interviews and reviews such as Mark Kermode’s review on
the BBC) and new/digital media.

Small cinema release in arthouse cinemas appropriate distribution for the film – a British
social realist drama. Similarly, Film4 was a good home for TV premiere in April 2017. It was
also selected for the curated film subscription service MUBI aimed at more discerning,
educated film fans.

5) Look over your mark, teacher comments and the mark scheme for Question 3 - the 25 mark essay question on your TV Close-Study Products. Write a complete essay plan for this question based on the suggested answers in the mark scheme. You can either use something similar to your actual answer or alternatively start from scratch. Make sure it is an extensive, detailed plan focused on the question (representations; social and cultural contexts of production) and offering specific references to Capital and Deutschland 83 for each section. Try and cover the two texts equally if you can and aim to plan around 5-6 paragraphs in total.

introduction-share my opinion and show the basis understanding of the csp's.

capital-introduce the text 

Deutschland- introduce the text#

talk about the mise en scene and reflect the time period to show the cultural and historical differences.
