The darkness of the silhouettes means that the individual characters lose their identity and the figures are seen as a couple ASSESSMENT CRITERIA STUDENT CHECKLIST: Carefully select and use appropriate language and textual forms to compose a poster/trailer that demonstrates an understanding of the way techniques are used to create meaning in genre Visual representation includes conventions of selected genre Podcast evaluates how the poster/trailer links to the selected genre Create a podcast that demonstrates that you have investigated the conventions of the selected genre Ensure podcast is 4 minutes in length.
