Examination requirements.


A look at exemplar work.
Key Words: Text, Industry, Audience

MS 4: MEDIA – TEXT, INDUSTRY AND AUDIENCE
This unit focuses on developing both the knowledge students have gained in other areas of the
course and their understanding of the links between texts, the industries that have produced them
and the different audiences that respond to them.
Key Features
 Centres select three industries to study.
 Centres then select three main texts from each industry to focus on.
 For each text selected, students will need to consider the following and the links

between them, as relevant to the texts selected.



Whilst Centres are free to select the texts they consider to be the most suitable for their
students to study, contrasting texts are likely to offer students a wider experience and to
prepare them more thoroughly for the end of unit exam. Centre selection also needs to take
into consideration the fact that:
 Two of the three selected texts per industry must be contemporary (made within the
previous five years)
 One text per industry must be British
