Watch BRITISH TV dramas over the holidays - try to see a range of dramas and from them pick two which you are going to analyse in some detail.
What to analyse:
What are the conventions of TV drama?
Think about: storyline/plot, characters, length of episode, setting, theme.
Ensure that you have set up a NEW PAGE on your blog for TV DRAMA.
The first post is going to be your detailed analysis of the TWO drama's YOU WATCH.
Important: one of these drama's should be an episode of Eastenders, the other can be a drama of your choice as long as it is British.

Homestudy
As all of you are mid shoot and edit at present, the onus is on you to complete the shooting before next weeks Tuesday Deadline.
In addition it is up to you to start collecting your work together in a suitable form to mark and moderate which presents all your research, planning and production tasks and will also accommodate your evaluations in response to the 7 key questions. I am happy for you to use a blog - though this must be created new for the WHOLE group OR to use a WIX website or any other online web/blog creation tool which is suitable. If in doubt send me a link to the site and I will check it out.
Below you will find information about these but it is my strong recommendation that you don't try and answer them yet.
What I am expecting from you is to document for yourself your own process, to make notes on what you have been doing, the successes and the failures. These notes will prove useful later on when it comes to answering the questions. In addition they provide evidence of your developing as learners.
Evaluations
Each candidate will evaluate and reflect upon the creative process and their experience of it. Candidates will evaluate their work electronically, this evaluation being guided by the set of key questions below. This evaluation may be done collectively for a group production or individually. Examples of suitable formats for the evaluation are:
A podcast
DVD extras
A blog
A powerpoint
In all cases, candidates should be discouraged from seeing the evaluation as simply a written essay and the potential of the format chosen should be exploited through the use of images, audio, video and links to online resources. Marks should be supported by teacher comments and may be supported by other forms such as audio or videotaped presentations.
In the evaluation the following questions must be answered:
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?
How does your media product represent particular social groups?
What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?
Who would be the audience for your media product?
How did you attract/address your audience?
What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product?
Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
The production element and presentation of research and planning may be individual or group work (maximum group size is four candidates). Where candidates have worked in a group, the evidence for assessment may be presented collectively but centres will still assess candidates on an individual basis for their contribution to aspects of the work, from planning, research and production to evaluation.
G321 is marked and internally standardised by the centre and marks are submitted to OCR by a specified date, a sample is then selected for external moderation. The unit is marked out of a total of 100 marks: 20 marks for the presentation of the planning and research; 60 marks for the construction; 20 marks for the evaluation.
