The 1st of a series of crossword challenges - also a way, with a bit of thought, of adding some creativity to your evaluations ...
This combines some easy and some not so easy questions, and will increasingly require hunting through your exam pack for answers ...
See https://crosswordlabs.com/view/some-major-media-terms
My main blogs are listed at igsmediablogs.blogspot.co.uk ... As well as summaries of general classwork, and links to key resources used, I'll try to suggest some further readings as we go. Any comments or suggestions are welcomed, whether useful resources you've discovered or thoughts leading off from class work. Each and every one of you have a range of cultural reference points that I won't have - so please share them!
I highly commend the web page 'Nine top tips for Media students'. From the people behind theory.org.uk, its worth a read!

Eval Q1a prep
Have a look at Joe (2016 StG) + Amber's (IGS 2015) answers for this. 'Creative' is not part of the UK requirement.
For Qia you need to clearly evidence (summarise) your research into conventions: general, then genre specific.
We'll start with the general, using Goodwin.
Can you find examples to reflect Goodwin's arguments in Joe's NIN video?
Do you think you list 5 or more genre signifiers? (use your best judgement as to what might apply within industrial/gothic metal)
Note each specific term you use on the terminology log sheet.
Next: identify at least 5 (but try for 10) format conventions from your latest draft, and be prepared to talk us through the precise media language.
