Key Tracking Assessment/Homework Task:

The table below gives you feedback and understanding on how your work has been marked
against assessment criteria for A2 Media Studies.

Assessment Objectives Summative Feedback
(Have these been met?)
AO2 To assess candidates’ application of
knowledge and understanding in evaluating
their own work, showing how meanings
and responses are created. (5%)
Solid attempt to analyse the meanings encoded
into the texts but you need to use more in the
way of media terms and theories. You haven’t
mentioned what the music video you analysed
actually is.
AO3 To assess candidates’ ability to plan
and construct media products using
appropriate technical and creative skills.
(15%)
Your work needs to be presented in an audiovisual format, e.g. a narrated video intercut with
clips from the texts, a commentary laid over the
text, an MP3 podcast or illustrated PowerPoint.
Avoid posting text to your blog. Well done for
embedding the videos into your blog.
AO4 Demonstrate the ability to undertake
and apply appropriate research. (5%)
Your texts are generally well chosen but you
needed to analyse a short film, rather than a
short extract from a feature film so your Scream
analysis isn’t appropriate. You haven’t
mentioned what the music video you analysed
actually is.

The table below provides you with tutor feedback and their recommendations for key areas on
how you can improve and develop your work for AS Media Studies.

Key Areas for My Individual Development – Marked out of 50

Knowledge and Understanding (A02) 12/20 marks

• You need to outline who has produced the text, who the target audience is and what the
method of exchange for each text is. Use the Harvard Referencing System to reference your
texts.
Planning/Construction/Technical Skills (A02) 4/20 marks

• Submit your posts in an audio/visual format if you wish to achieve high grades.
· Well done for doing a video analysis of your practise video.
Research (A04) 6/10 marks
• Try to write more about who produced these texts and why (was it produced for TV, is it a
promotional video, is it a student film? etc.). Who is the target audience? Where has the text
been exhibited (theatrically, TV or web only?)?
Good effort Shazana but you need to use more media terms and theories and you need to present your
work in a Web 2.0 format.
