Blog feedback and learner response

 

Dyari GCSE Media blog feedback – December 2022

WWW:

Dyari, it has been a pleasure having you in my lessons this term. You are very passionate about the subject and you offer very interesting ideas. I think you will particularly enjoy the close study products when we get to them, especially the video games unit. It was lovely hearing you say that this was your favourite subject this year. I hope this continues throughout the course.

This is because I struggled a lot with my knowledge of media, not using as much words as I should and also struggling to properly describe the scene in detail with said words. I'm not fully satisfied with my work on it and I very much think I can do much better.

Mise-en-scene: The scenarios shown in this episode are quite gloomy, historic and lonely. The city, which is the location where the majority of the episode takes place, is quite empty, abandoned and old looking. The characters here also look quite nervous and/or always on alert, considering the setting they're in. Narrative and genre: The episode focuses on a city in the sky in which its inhabitants either fled or had their souls stolen by "Spectres", which means the city is very empty and is only really filled with children/teens. The episode also focuses on other worldly creatu
