How to plan a 1B essay





A minimalist summary of what to cover...

Para 1 Intro: which of your projects are you going to write about? briefly describe it

Para 2: what are some of the key features of the concept you are being asked to apply? maybe outline two of the theories/ideas of particular writers briefly

Para 3; start to apply the concept, making close reference to your production to show how the concept is evident in it

Para 4: try to show ways in which ideas work in relation to your production and also ways in which those ideas might not apply/could be challenged

Para 5; conclusion

Again remember you only have 30 minutes and that you really need to analyse the finished production, rather than tell the marker how you made it.
