WWW: Great to see media language highlighted consistently - it's a great habit to get into early in the course and appears in every mark scheme whether coursework or exam. Excellent choice of sound analysis with the Dark Knight clip - and plenty of insight in your writing too. You are clearly justifying the decision to award you a place in AS Media which I am delighted to see.
EBI: Check the formatting of your blog - many pictures are not displaying which makes it harder to follow your written analysis. I hope you'll be aiming for an A grade in Media but you definitely need to work on your media consumption, particularly news. You can use Twitter to access it but you absolutely need an understanding of the media world (including news/politics/journalism) if you want a top grade in A Level Media.
LR: Reflect on your first month of AS Media. What is your strongest piece of work so far? What is your weakest? What specific skills or knowledge do you need to develop over the rest of the course?
My strongest piece so far has to be the sound analysis task, I managed to choose a great clip which allowed me to talk a lot about sound and how it built tension. Also, I used all of the sound key words in this piece.
My weakest piece has to be the sound presentation for contrapuntal and parallel sound as i didn't use the correct images as it didn't show a very WIDE difference between the two keywords.
