3) Consider your mark against the mark scheme above. What are the strengths of your production based on the the mark scheme? Think about magazine cover conventions and the media language techniques you have used to communicate with your audience (e.g. mise-en-scene, camera shot etc.)
A good cross-media production that constructs effective narratives and shows some deliberate control of connotations, though this may not be throughout and constructs points of view that reflect values and attitudes.

4) Look at the mark scheme again. What can you do to move your mark higher and, if required, move up a level?
excellent application of knowledge and understanding of the media language demonstrated by the Consistently appropriate and effective selection, and combination of elements to communicate very clear meanings throughout the products.

5) What would be one piece of advice you would give a student about to start the same magazine cover project you have just completed? 
I would recommend researching and analysis details of the posters to make it look realistic.
