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.

-Athletic body connotes that the subject is in condition and well prepared for the

‘battle’.

-The text is positioned over the top of the tyre to signify the challenge and create

synergy between the image and the message in the text.

-Long shot shows the whole power of the body and the effort involved in pushing the

tyre.

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. 

-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.

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.

-Serif font for title connotes formality, high class and how well established the magazine is (Britain’s oldest magazine).

-Cover image reflects British culture’s interest in stately homes and high society events with Weymouth dressed in a ballgown in the gardens of her Longleat house.

-‘Blond Ambition’ shows link to Prime Minister Boris Johnson (interview with his brother). Reflects Tatler’s focus on power and influence in Britain. This is also seen in cover line ‘Inside the new British establishment’.

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.

-The use of trailers, teasers and social media to build up excitement and word-of-

mouth long before release.

-Star Power: most big-budget mainstream films and blockbusters will use Star Power

to attract audiences to their film. The main star in Black Widow is Scarlett Johansson

who is very well known and has established fans.

-Section of the Marvel website with gallery, story synopsis, character posters and opportunities to buy or stream the movie.

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.)

-Writing more detailed answers

-revison

-practice exam skills
