October Assessment LR

1) My feedback is to: Use my glossary to further enhance my accuracy of using media terminology. I should always consider the message of a product and if it's successful.

In this assessment I achieved a grade 5+ with 18 marks.

2)
Q1: 1/1

Q2: 1/1

Q3: 2/2

Q4: 2/2

Q5: 1/2
I incorrectly inferred the title's position at the bottom of the poster as unimportant, even though this wasn't true.

Q6: 2/3
My use of media terminology was incorrect.

Q7: 2/2

Q8: 3/4
I didn't infer mention that the shot links the character to their setting.

Q9: 4/8
I didn't effectively or accurately use media terminology.


3) 
I said product instead of media.
I said catch phrase instead of tag-line
I said theme instead of genre
I said details instead of billing block details
I said empathetic instead of sympathetic

4) One of my stronger questions was question 6 because I nearly had full marks, i just needed to accurately use media terminology. This means my inference wasn't inaccurate.

5) One of my weaker questions was question 9 because I didn't reference the target audience or elaborate on my points.

6) Charities often use pictures of children in their advertising because people tend to feel more sympathetic towards children. They feel sympathetic because towards children because children are most commonly associated with purity and innocence; they are frequently made to look that way  in these posters to further emphasise their vulnerability.

They also use children because the target audience of these posters are parents and since they have children the poster will appeal to them and make them more likely to donate. In addition to this producers use children because children will be our future and the consumers of the media understand this, so they become more inclined to donate as they want to protect their future.

In addition to this, children are seen as truthful. This makes the consumers less likely to dismiss the poster as false, since children are seen as trustworthy. If they see the poster as honest than they will feel like their donation will actually be going to the people in need and not a fake cause.
