Create a 5 minute presentation on Super 8 for the Cross Media Case study to be delivered on Monday 12th December.
Answer the following questions in your presentation:
How are texts in the three platforms constructed?
• Are there similarities and differences in the way the area is dealt with in each platform?
• What type of media language is used and how?
• How are genre codes used?
• How do texts within the three platforms construct narrative?
How do audiences access texts across the three platforms?
• Do the texts enable different types of audience activity and/or interaction?
• Are audiences able to play a role in the construction of media texts? (UGC)
• Are there differences in the audience gratifications offered across the three platforms?
How are representations constructed and are there similarities and/or differences across the platforms?
• What values and ideologies are communicated within the representation?
What institutional issues are raised by the topic areas?
• How are institutions reacting to change in technology?
• How are institutions attempting to reach and engage their audiences?
• What economic issues are behind the construction and distribution of contemporary media texts?
Use the Significance, Structure, Simplicity, Rehearsal checklist on slide 58 of the guide about how to prevent Death by PowerPoint as this will help you produce a more interesting presentation.
Save the PowerPoint in 97-2003 format and upload to Google Docs, making it a public file (by clicking 'share' then 'publish/embed'). Then include the link to the PowerPoint on your blog.

Super 8 Cross-Media Study
Here is the Super 8 homework for all Y12 students - due either Monday/Tuesday next week...
...go through the Powerpoint and copy each question individually to your blog. For every question, provide a written answer underneath and give evidence (examples, links to the texts, images, etc.).
NOTE: This is instead of the essay homework that 12C thought they were getting.
