6 exam-style questions with model answers, plus 8 quick multi-choice questions — every question on this part of the standard, grouped by the 2 pages of notes they come from.

Explain what mise-en-scène is and distinguish it from cinematography.
Explain why correctly decoding visual techniques does not meet this standard, and how to convert a decoded observation into a judgement.

Describe the format of the AS91473 exam and explain what it means to discuss the extent to which you agree with a statement.
Explain how to break an exam statement into its separate claims, and why this produces a better essay than responding to the statement as a whole.
Discuss the extent to which you agree with the statement: "A creator who withholds information respects the audience more than one who supplies it." Use the "Front Room" scene as your evidence.
