The Mark Scheme

The specification

Here is a presentation the the specification of this year's course

First few weeks

For the first few weeks in media we have been looking at the basic conventions of documentaries. We watched a documentary called 'Bowling for Columbine' which involved the crimes committed in america with the use of guns. By watching this we got a taster of the different types of documentaries in media today.

first post : Impressions of A2 Media

So far i am enjoying a2 media and the topics that i will be studying throughout the year seem to be very exciting. Personally i find documentaries very informative and the making of them seems to be very inetresting. By what i have seen a2 media will allow us to research an interesting topic of our own choice and send out the real message ot the public of what we have learnt using the various forms and conventions of the making of a documentary.
