MOCK EXAM CLIP

This is the clip that was used in the May mock exam. It's from Hustle.

Discuss the ways in which the extract constructs the representation of GENDER using the following:
  • Camera shots, angles, movement and composition
  • Editing
  • Sound
  • Mise en Scene
If you missed the mock and want to do the whole paper in your own time, the industry question was:

'Discus the issues raised by media ownership in the production and exchange of media texts in your chosen area.'


The exam is 2 hours long, and you should break down the timing thus:

  • 30 mins watch the clip
  • 45 mins TV drama answer
  • 45 mins industry answer
