The document provides guidance for a timed exam question on analyzing representations in TV drama. Students have 30 minutes for note-taking on a provided stimulus, then 45 minutes for writing a response. The response should include explanation, argument, and analysis supported by examples and using relevant terminology. It suggests structuring the response by addressing each technical area like sound, camerawork, and editing in turn while relating it back to representations and avoiding simply describing elements blow-by-blow. Further sections provide guidance on newspaper industry questions addressing topics like production, funding, distribution, marketing, and technological changes.
