Prelim Task LR

  1) Type up your teacher's feedback  in full . If you've received your feedback via email, you can simply cut and paste it from the email into your blog. WWW:  Good use of the lyrics to direct the actions in the video. Creative use of angles, shifting the perspective between scenes for varied effect. Your choice of song is a good one for encouraging positive change and making small behavioural alterations that can improve a person’s overall wellbeing. Next Steps:  If you’re going to go down the traditional path of lip syncing a song in a music video, you need to ensure that you align the sound and video as closely as you can. I think the overall message of self-improvement needs to be driven home even harder with some more dramatic changes/shifts which are relevant to everyone outside of the bubble surrounding the song lyrics. 2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write  two  WWW bullet p...

Lr Assesment

  1) Type up your feedback: a. What Mark and Grade did you get? 19/42  4 b. What targets were you given for the longer written questions? Structure answers better, more details 2) Look at the  mark scheme for this assessment . For Question 2 (12 mark unseen) use the indicative content in the mark scheme to identify  three  points that you could have referred to in your answer. • Athletic body connotes that the subject is in condition and well prepared for the ‘battle’.• Upper case and bold – connotations of the important, powerful message of the image and copy. • The white text against a black background and the darkness of the image makes the writing stand out and anchor the message of the text about training being important. 3) For Question 3 (Galaxy - narrative features) use the mark scheme to write down the main  narrative theories  and how we can link them to the Galaxy advert CSP.  • Character types can be seen as outdated stereotypes of mas...

Real statement of intent

I intend to create a two-minute music video for Kanye West’s “Ghost Town”, featuring PARTYNEXTDOOR, Kid Cudi, and 070 Shake. The video will encourage people specifically young adults to take small and positive steps to improve the quality of life in their  environment. The video’s message will focus on friendship, and emotional freedom, showing how  human interaction and appreciation of everyday spaces can inspire personal and communal growth. The story will trace the journey of a small group of friends as they explore familiar urban and suburban areas: parks, high streets, cafes, McDonald's, a house, and Westfield shopping centre. There will be feelings of isolation and stillness at the start of the video, while laughter, movement, and energy increase throughout, symbolizing emotional freedom. Consistent with Todorov's theory of equilibrium, beginning in isolation, moving through disruption, and ending with a restored sense of harmony and unity are typical. The changing relat...

Coursework: Preliminary Exercise 2025 - Music Videos

Image
  1) Write a 100 word statement of intent explaining what you are going to make for your preliminary exercise. I plan to make a 30 seconds music video about how people can make a step to change for thje better within society.It will use the song N95 by Kendrick Lamar because of how the lyrics tell people to be themselves.It will involve multiple different shots symbolizing that the true and best form of a person is the version without all of these materialistic things and questions what are you and what do you have without these things.I feel the song is a perfect fit for the topic of societal improvement. 2) Write a  script  for your preliminary exercise on your blog. This needs to include stage directions AND dialogue. To see how a TV drama script is presented, and to look at professional examples, check out the  BBC Writers' Room  and click on Script Library. These will not be music video scripts but the layout will be the same. Hello, new world, all the boys...
