L/O: To review and reflect on the y10 Mock Exam and set personal targets

Q1) Ofcom regulates radio in the UK

Q2) Media Language:
Camera work (Sk8r Boi has a handheld camera to allow the viewer too feel like they are there)
Mise En Scene
Sound
Editing

Q3)How they target different audiences and WHY they target different audiences. You have to use your case study in your answer. BBC radio is a Public service broadcasting, this means they do not have advertisements on their radio. If you do have advertisements you are a commercial. Radio programmes target different audiences for money )PBS have to target a range of audiences to be allowed on air). They target different audiences by having different artists and genres on the show.

Public service broadcasts like the BBC Radio One Live lounge have to target different audiences as they are not allowed to be put on air unless they meet certain standards. One off these standards is that they have to target a range of different audiences. The BBC targets different audiences through their presenters, they have Clara Anfo as the host on Radio One who is well known amongst the younger audience so will draw that age range in to listening to the radio.  


Q4)Terminology is key, read the question PROPERLY! Representation is how they are shown. Make sure to look at the cover lines also when it comes to representing artists. Restrained colour gives the artists and magazine a sense of seriousness. The black background also gives the magazine a sense of seriousness. fits the stereotype.

The Mojo magazine cover shows that rock artists can also be old as well as young whilst also being serious. This can be shown through both the black and white image of a young Ray Davies as the main image and also a smaller image of Neil Young in the corner of the magazine, both of these images are surrounded by a black background and restrained colours which gives them a sense of seriousness.

Q5) Asterisk means that spelling and grammar can give you extra marks in a question. When a question wants you to make judgements you can either evaluate as you go along or add a conclusion at the end of your answer that shows how far you agree with the statement.

Pop music cover conventions:
bright colours
white artists
many different fonts (a range)
the magazine usually targets girls 
very busy 

Rock magazine cover conventions:

Cluttered layout of we love pop and clean and simple mojo

Evaluating Our news day project

In the school report project, I helped with both directing and my special feature on mental illness in teenagers. Even though i didn't finish the project, I will be finishing it hopefully soon and putting it on youtube. I helped people, like Callum, with their project by going through and checking their report before they recorded it.

My favourite part of the project had to be choosing the images to go with my report, because it was fun to see all the different art and ideas that people suffering from mental illnesses had created to spread awareness.

My least favourite part of the project had to be choosing what to do my report on, because i couldn't think of anything interesting to me that might be interesting to someone watching the news.

The skills I think I have learned in this time are how to edit videos more and also how to organise an interview and write a report on the news.

I've learned that not everything that someone will work on will make it into the news, but maybe used later on on a slow news day.

If i was to do it again differently, I would probably try and improvise an interview earlier on to stop problems happening later on down the line.

Who-Teenagers in the UK.

What-The rise in mental illness in teenagers across the UK.

When-Now.

Where-In the UK.

Why-

Approximately 1 in 4 people in the UK will experiencea mental health problem each year [1]. In England, 1 in 6 people report experiencing a common mental health problem (such as anxiety and depression) in any given week [2].

There are more than 200 classified forms of mental illness. Some of the more common disorders are: clinical depressionbipolar disorderdementiaschizophrenia and anxiety disorders. Symptoms may include changes in mood, personality, personal habits and/or social withdrawal.

30,000 pupils aged 14-15, more than one in three teen girls suffer from anxiety or depression. ... In fact, depression and anxiety in boys had actually fallen since 2005.16 Mar 2017

Normal teenagers are often moody due to hormonal and physical changes that happen during puberty. However, when mental illness is involved, it may be difficult to differentiate “normal teenage behaviour” from the symptoms of depression, anxiety and other emotional difficulties. Along with the teenage years comes drama.
