Year 11 Paper 1 baseline assessment: Learner response

 1) Type up your feedback in full (you do not need to write mark/grade if you do not wish to)

WWW: Steven, good knowledge and understanding of social, cultural and historical contexts of Tatler CSP.

Next Step: Revise media terminology e.g camera shots and ownership and more detail needed of how films are marketed.

2) Look at the mark scheme for this assessment. For Question 2 (12 mark unseen) use the indicative content in the mark scheme to identify three points that you could have referred to in your answer.
• Verbal codes
• Use of language
• Colour palette
3) For Question 3 (Galaxy - narrative features) use the mark scheme to write down the main narrative theories and how we can link them to the Galaxy advert CSP. 
There is disequilibrium at the start when the village is associated with chaos (fruit
falling, bus stopping, people shouting). This is juxtaposed with the calm, heroic
persona that the audience encounters when they meet Hepburn and, when the new
equilibrium is restored at the end, the sweeping vista suggests endless possibilities /
traditional happy ending at the closure of the narrative.
• Message of the narrative: Galaxy is a more sophisticated, classier product than
other chocolate bars and, as such, needs time and relaxation for it to be enjoyed
properly. The audience can also experience this luxury and a happier time
(nostalgia) if they buy the product.
• The use of intertextuality: The narrative references Roman Holiday so rewards
audiences who have knowledge of the glamour of old Hollywood. The narrative is a
parody of the original film where Audrey Hepburn’s character steals Gregory Peck’s
Vespa motorcycle and he jumps on the back
4) Now look at Question 4 - Tatler and social/cultural contexts. Use the mark scheme to identify three points you could have made in your answer here.

5) On Section B, focus on Question 7 - film industry and Black Widow. Use the mark scheme to identify three ways Black Widow was marketed to its audience.

6) Finally, write down three things you are going to work on before your next mock exam in December (e.g. time management; revising CSPs etc.)
