Blog:-

In resubmitting my coursework, I decided that as well as changing and amending my product- I also had to make changes to existing posts and add some new posts in the hope of increasing my marks.

As a result of this, the newer posts on my blog will appear closer together in terms on time frame. This is because we have been working for the past month or so alongside our A2 coursework.

Resubmission:-

After receiving our grades for our AS Media Studies coursework, as a group we all felt slightly disappointed with the fact that our grades were lower than we originally anticipated. In order to understand why, our teachers looked into our results and comments to understand where we had gone wrong.

After understanding this, we decided as a group, we were willing to make the appropriate changes and to resubmit our coursework in order to attain the highest grades possible.

We began by showing our product to the class and taking audience feedback; some students stated that they felt that our biggest drawback was that our storyline was still unclear. Henceforth, we sat down as a group and watched our sequence over and over, verbally discussing changes that could be made each time.

At first, we thought we would have to re-film it entirely... As we had to do all our AS work alongside our A2 work, we felt this was a bit of a challenge and in completely re-doing our AS next to creating our A2 we risked the chances of falling flat on our faces and not doing well in either. Because of this we were unsure of what to do, however, we spoke to everyone possible in order to get as much feedback as we could and came to the conclusion that we should keep all of our original footage, just alter our idea in order for the storyline to become clearer to the audience.
