Introduction

My name is Saskia Malhotra, I am 17 years old and am attending Hills Road Sixth Form College in Cambridge where I am studying Media, English Combined and Psychology. This blog is for my A-Level Media coursework. The task we have been set is to create an audio-visual sequence from a television programme and associated print materials to promote the same programme. My audio-visual sequence must be from one of the following points in the narrative/structure of my new television programme; a key turning point, a point of significant conflict or a resolution and be between 2:30 - 3:00 minutes long.

I have a range of options for my content and  layout of my magazine. My front cover will consist of a stylish, glamorous shot of one of my actors, I will have some brand adverts boarding the photo, with a quote from my interview.

I found this image which has given me a starting point for ideas. I want to combine minimalism with something bold and eye-catching. I found a front cover from the magazine BLEND, this minimalistic design is striking in the sense it flips from ordinary magazine cove...

For my second textual analysis I watched episode one of the single series ‘Thirteen’. First broadcasted on February  28 TH 2016 , is still available on BBC IPlayer two years on. A brief tagline, ‘Today is the day Ivy Moxam escapes from the cellar – her prison for the last 13 years. Today is the day she will return to her home, to her life. Today is only the beginning.’, gives a brief description of what is to come whilst introducing the main character and plot. Ivy Moxam, played by Jodie Comer, is a 26-year-old woman who was the victim of a kidnapping when she was 13. Locked away in a cellar for 13 years, she returns to her family home after escaping her attackers prison. The first episode introduces an endless struggle to return to the old and escape the last 13 years and the pain that had been inflicted. A huge topic within the series, which is carefully introduced in episode one is the theme of secrets. Ivy possesses a need to protect her attacker, giving brief description...
