Ignite presentation learner response

Alison- Music video
  • Good opening putting forward a significant relevant media issue.
  • Excellent delivery- fits the sides perfectly and structure of opening is spot on.
  • Good use of images to give background 
  • Very controversial question- are women to blame for the portrayal of women in the music industry?
  • Important question here- does she write her own songs?
  • There's a brilliant critical investigations title right here- to what extent are women responsible for these representations?
  • Presentation is still superbly organised and delivered- pace and structure is perfectly judged.
  • Good to see some media theory (Mulvey /Berges)- need to add some feminist theory to this.
  • Good ending asking key question

Significance- 5
Structure- 5
Simple- 4
Rehearsal- 5
Overall: 19

  • Q+A- first question on historical question is excellent and thoughtful response.
  • Another great question or Adele- the other side of feminism... interesting from a genre perspective
  • More good response- fascinating debates. This will be a great critical investigation!

WWW- I introduced my critical investigation topic well with questions that broadens the subject

EBI- i added some feminist theory to the presentation

My presentation will lead into my critical investigation as i have already explored the ways in which women enhance the portrayal that is created about them in the music industry and if they are to blame. In my critical investigation, I will explore how women portrayed themselves in the past and compare to present day music videos and decide how it will affect future women artists. I will also examine the other side of feminism and look at if from a genre perspective. The presentation will also lead into my critical investigation as it will help me to get a fixed question in which i will explore, perhaps to what extent are women responsible for these representations.
