Great advice from one of our presenters. Get reading! 

Reminder:

What do you need to hand in/ produce

Full and completed first drafts of your two production tasks are due (footage and pictures to be transferred and website addresses to be e-mailed to media address). 

5/6 pages of planning and research printed out ready for hand in

Equipment due back in Monday period 5

A link to the production briefs:

http://filestore.aqa.org.uk/subjects/AQA-W-TRB-MEDS-MEST2-BR-14.PDF

Please be clear that your brief is your success criteria and a clear guide to what you must create. Your production must match your brief and take accounts of all aspects of it.

You would not drive to an unknown destination without a map, do not make a production without your brief!

Check over it regularly to be clear on what you have to do. Everyone has been issued and re-issued. No excuses!
