Marking Criteria for Video ..

This post is about the marking criteria for the OTS which we have to make in order to complete our Media AS course. The marking criteria below is criteria for C-D and A-B grade. I have put the criteria for both of these grade boundaries on here because I feel that I could aim for the high grades and the low grades are on here because I feel that that is the grade I am performing at at the moment. The marking criteria for these grades are as follows:

Level 3 36–47 marks

There is evidence of proficiency in the creative use of many of the following technical skills:

• holding a shot steady, where appropriate;
• framing a shot, including and excluding elements as appropriate;
• using a variety of shot distances as appropriate;
• shooting material appropriate to the task set;
• selecting mise-en-scène including colour, figure, lighting, objects and setting;
• editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer;
• using varied shot transitions and other effects selectively and appropriately for the task set;
• using sound with images and editing appropriately for the task set;
• using titles appropriately.
