Having read my group's first contributions to their group blog (very promising so far) - here are my tips:
1. analyse your mood board. Comment on what you have observed from the exercise. Use terms such as iconography, mise-en-scene, conventions, atmosphere etc
2. Reference the films that you are analysing correctly. You should state the director and year along with the full title at the beginning of the analysis
3. Make sure you document any discussions or decisions to make together as a group on the blog. It need only be a post of a couple of lines, but it helps to demonstrate your creative process - also easier to mark!
4. Make sure you discuss 'macro' issues - representation and ideology. For the top marks, you would be expected to take your analysis beyond the technical 'micro' analysis. Consider how the representation of gender or race is constructed for example. How does this contribute to reinforcing or challenging dominant values and beliefs that audiences may have?
