Developing your planning and research - How to achieve a level 4!

Below are some examples of level 1 - 4 coursework. I have used location shots as an example of the level of detail and analysis required to achieve each of the levels. Your work will need to be of the same standard throughout to ensure you can achieve the level required.

LEVEL 1 - Minimal evidence of research and planning

This constitutes a level 1 because only images of the locations and very brief descriptions have been included. There appears to be no thought process behind the locations chosen. The presentation shows no creativity whatsoever.  

LEVEL 2 - Basic evidence of research and planning

This has achieved a level 2 because there is evidence of basic organisation and some effort to explain possible effects the chosen locations would have on audience. The presentation shows a basic amount of effort.

LEVEL 3 - Proficient evidence of research and planning

This has achieved a level 3 because the post clearly outlines the group's location requirements in relation to their concept. Each location is analysed and linked directly into what the group wish to achieve and how the location will assist with that ambition. Mise en scene is considered, as is society's collective understanding of genre. The presentation is of a high standard.

 LEVEL 4 - Excellent evidence of research and planning

This has achieved a level 4 because it has all the elements of the level 3 blog example but it then goes on to analyse how their own location choices are influenced by other pieces of work in the same genre. There are specific examples included. The presentation is excellent.
