Year 12 Media - important update

We now have confirmation that the MEST1 mock exam will be during your lesson time on Monday 27 April in the Lecture Theatre. This means:

12C: 10.30am - 12.30pm Lecture Theatre

12A: 1.20pm - 3.20pm Lecture Theatre

This is your only full MEST1 mock exam so it is essential you revise and prepare exactly as you would for the real exam. Section A will be a DVD clip followed by four questions while Section B will be a 45 minute essay on your film industry case studies (Ill Manors, A Field In England and your independent case study).

Media Magazine

Media Magazine is a brilliant resource when revising for Media exams with articles on all the major media issues and debates. Our Media Magazine archive is here - we've just added MM52 (out this week) which has articles on social media and surveillance, Russell Brand, the Hunger Games trilogy and how to carry out close textual analysis (which is exactly the skill you need for MEST1 Section A).

Good luck!
