Presentation: MOJO Magazine


My partner Miriam and I were asked to produce a presentation on MOJO Magazine; this was to include an analysis of the front cover, contents page and a double page spread. The presentation had to be 5 minutes long. We presented the presentation (which is shown below) on the 15th October. This was a good exercise as after the presentation our class was able to give us feedback on what we could have done to improve the presentation and also what they liked about the presentation.

Media Trip

On Wednesday 20th October 2010 we went on a trip to the Odeon cinema in Convent Gardens. Here we had a special screening to see the film ‘Shank’.

Just before we watched the film the producer of the film, Paul Van Carter told us a bit about the film and did a question and answer session. He told us that the filming was done on Heygate Estate in Walworth, South London.

‘Shank’ was set in London 2015; it’s an action film about youths. One of the gangs ‘The Paper Chaserz’ likes to stay out of trouble but they end up having conflict with a rival gang which gets out of control. They soon find themselves on a chase of revenge because of the murder of one of their own.

The film portrays violence, sex and drugs. As this film was targeted at both the English and American market the message of the movie wasn’t clear.

Below shows a trailer of the film.
