Year 12 - Media BTEC - Tasks to complete Friday 12/11/10

Your first task for Unit 15 is to write an essay which discusses the principles of editing and how the forms and techniques of editing have developed over time. You have started some basic research for this and now is a good time to think about the content and structure of your essay, this will tell you how much more research you need to do to be ready to start writing the essay.

Start by breaking up the essay into the sections/questions you have to address;

1. What are the principles of editing?
2. How have the techniques of editing developed over time and through technology?

You should also consider these questions for your introduction:

1. What is editing?
2. How is it used in the construction of media products?

In order to gain a DISTINCTION in this task you must:

• Critically evaluate the principles and development of editing
• Use illustrative examples and supporting arguments (quotes from media experts)

The 7 questions you have been working on since Wednesday should address all of these sections of your essay but you will also need to find examples and quotes to support your ideas. You now need to plan the structure and basic content of your essay.

Use this table as a template and use my examples to help you complete a version of your own (you will need to create a copy of this table in a word document).

Use this template to then write your introduction to your essay, you can use this example to help you.

By the end of the first double lesson you should have completed these tasks and hand them into the teacher so they can check your name off the list to say you have completed this work.

In the second double lesson you need to continue working on your newsletters for Miss Sprigg's unit - remember that you have a deadline for this work and you've been given extra time in this lesson to complete it.

Year 12 - Media BTEC - Editing Research Questions

Here are the questions you need to answer for your research;

1. What is editing?
2. Why do people edit film and video?
3. How have editing techniques developed over time?
4. How have editing techniques developed technologically?
5. What are the basic principles of editing?
6. Find out about 3 important people involved in the development of editing.
7. Find out about 3 important films for the development of editing.

A tip - remember the Kuleshov Effect video we watched in the lesson on Wednesday, he was very important to the development of editing so look him up and another Russian filmmaker called Eisenstein. Another tip is to look at this google page

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=how+have+editing+techniques+developed+over+time&hl=en&safe=active&rlz=1T4ADFA_enGB396GB396&source=lnt&tbs=tl:1&sa=X&ei=onbaTJedNcG1hAeN4dH_Dw&ved=0CAsQpwU&prmdo=1
If you click on the timeline it shows you the different things that happened in film and editing during that era. I've also photocopied some fact sheets for you in case you're struggling to find information on the internet - these are quite basic so you will still need to use the internet but they'll help you get started.

Year 12 Creative Media BTEC - Lesson 7 - Collating & Presenting Your Results

Year 10 - Media Studies BTEC, 11/10/10

COMPOSITION AND COMBINATION TASK

Use a venn diagram in your exercise books to compare 2 clips. Concentrate on these questions;

• What area of the topic have the two reports focused on?
• What techniques have been used to present the story? Think about the use of images, moving image, interviews and spoken word.

After you have completed your venn diagram write a short answer to the following question:

Why have the two programmes presented their story in the ways they have?

In order to prepare for this task you need to watch the two clips. The first is a Newsround report in the 2010 World Cup and the second is a BBC News at 6pm report on the same topic. Here are the links to these clips:
