This document provides an analysis of a candidate's responses to two questions on a media studies exam. For the first question, the candidate provided some contextual introduction and analysis of age representation but lacked technical language. There were also gaps in the analysis of other production elements. For the second question, the candidate briefly discussed film distribution networks and how they have impacted the film industry, using the movies Batman Begins and Wall-E as examples. However, explanation and analysis were limited with minimal use of terminology. Overall, the candidate's knowledge met the requirements for a low grade.
