GCSE Media Studies

[Jaiisun]

Hey there,

I'm assuming that if you've clicked this thread, you take (or took, or are going to take) GCSE Media Studies.

So, if you're taking your GCSE in Media this year, like me, you're studying sitcoms. I guess i'm just wondering what everyone thinks is going to come up!

Also, the exam can be given out on Monday - but my teacher won't give us it until Tuesday :eusa_wall.

Discuss!

I suspect, it'll vary from Genre to genre.

Yeah i'm doing sitcoms as well, a little boring some parts of it I find.
I'm getting the pre-release on Wednesday. Will be interesting to see whats in it.

haha, I'm not doing Sitcoms,

It depends on the exam board your school picks

Hey Y'all, Yes I am doing "Sitcoms" too, the genre changes anually depending on the AQA board. Basically I think it is going to be...

• Compare 2 Sitcoms
• Make your own Sitcom and do a storyboard for it
• History of Sitcoms
• 70s Sitcoms and Racism

what you guys thinking?

Well, in our school, the top set of the English GCSE get to do a bonus 8 month course of Media Studies. We've been studying the Music Industry and Comics.

We're doing sitcoms.
We studied the office, my family, friends and phoenix nights cos you have to do a conventional piece against a none conventional piece so we did two of both in case they came up.
I think friends stands a good chance of coming up.

I think there may be something about how women are represented (now & before) in the house hold etc and perhaps give some examples...

I think perhaps make your own sitcom idea up, story board it a little and perhaps an advertising poster?

Cultral Diversity maybe...

And something to do with target audiences???

I'm not sure.
