Yea having read that PPT thoroughly it looks like that should be of some use to you. It tells you what you get your marks for, past questions, layout suggestions etc etc.
My understanding is that you have to refer to a product that you have created in relation to the theories that you have been taught by Miss Crompton. You need to basically do a commentary on your production of it, and explain how certain decisions you have made relate to the media theories that you have been taught. I guess you also need to explain how the finished product links to the theories also.
For example (off the top of my head), Star Theory?
One paragraph might comment on this. Have you created a 'star' in your trailer? If so, how have you gone about that and how do the decisions you have made relate to the theory? Always explain the theory and outline its main points.
Conversely, you may have deliberately decided not to create a star. It may be that this suits the genre of your movie trailer much better. However, you could still relate this to Star Theory.
*Outline the theory, say how this affected your trailer, say how you went about putting this into action, comment on the final effect*
I am not sure what oother theories you were given/asked to comment on. Male Gaze? Gender?
At the end of the day, you all know your stuff. Just make sure you SHOW OFF what you know. Comment on the theories and prove your immense knowledge of them through your wording. Then go on to expertly craft an answer which proves how the theory helped to shape your production.
Also, remember, they won't have the finished work in front of them (wink, wink).
Does this help?
