Mr. Foley's 2nd, 3rd and 4th Period

 In the 1st lesson with Mr Foley we were asked to carry on analyse the Advertising Techniques
we were talking about hte other forms in techniques like Transit signs are small posters placed on trains or buses. E.G.
Targetting our audience directly... etc.
Than we talked about the production of ads that we can
 Learn about the product I can advertise about the school if I don’t know the school I could show some understanding for the entry level 7 or Sixth From it can’t be the same. Ideas in both mediums, something based on print.


Than we talk about Market research it has to be 1.3. E.g. questionnaire or interview, we also talked about we need to understand why people comes to this school E.g. because this is a Catholic school, Good ousted report, different cultures… etc.


We also talked about the Regulation what its one 1.3 that includes health and safety review Annotation 

Children ; images and print


In the 2nd Lesson with Mr foley we carry on doing the same thing but this time we talked about the History of Advertising we talked about that it would be difficult to imagine how was advertising in the past and how technology imroved, we have a lot of things that helps us make an advert and those staffs gives you a sense of freedom and sense of creativity. All ideas worth something… Shows what we have in our school because we cannot compare but we can show what we've got.3rd lesson Sir let us carry on with our task for 1.2 and 1.3 I finished my rough plans and brain storming for Year 7 and I also done a presentation how I made my Step A for 1.2 and I check my self with the Checklist (that Miss COnnel gave us) to see what I am missing from 1.2 

Miss Connel Lesson 26th of Nov.

Firday 1.2 Checklist
For 1.2 we need to label the work, and for 1.3 we need to be clear, we also need to develop lots of ideas for both for 1.2 its rough work and 1.3 better work, but only in the area of print. On 1.4 it is going to be the final draft.
We have to consider advertising techniques, and information about other schools (and we already done a research about this with Mr Mills).
Also I can take my own pictures for my adverts.
With Miss Connel we done a checklist for 1.2 its help me a lot because i could check  what have I done for my 1.2 and what am I missing.

• 1st one was Collecting Research : Information of school, of other school, images and drawing for my advert. Than obviously the desing. The area where i would advertise it, investigation and evidence.
• 2nd one was Making Notes: Rough notes for 1.2 made on ideas in general, sketches and Concpets for adverts
• 3rd one was Brainstorming: Information on school entry points, visual diagrams explore my ideas and fulll range of many ideas even if its not good
• 4th one was Times ideas (rough skecthing of ideas on paper) Medium was Print  (year Seven and 6th Form)  print out the peer and self assesment from our blog to our folder
• 5th one was Developing the best IDeas: for adverts written and visual, evidence meeting with teacher (DOCUMENT,FEEDBACK,VLOG,BLOG)
• 6th Choosing and developing one idea: making one idea better, more detaild, rough plan/sketches

When 1.3 Begins
7th Detaild plan: Drafting rough versions of above (6th)


Im on the 5th one right now I have to do my Vlog and than I can go to 6th when im developing further my choosen medium.
This lesson was very helpful because it help me be more organized and concentrate to my Task :)

Mr. Mills's lesson

Hi today in Mr. Mills lesson we asked sir to watch the RockChallenge. After we watched it, sir gave us the school newsletter to show us and ask us where we can use pictures of the compatition.
I discussed my ideas with my friend that where I and her could use pictures of the RockChallenge.
We also talked about that we only have 8 days left to finish L.O. 1.2 and 1.3. We also talk about the task and that how we doing with the research and the rough planning. 
Than Sir gave us some ideas and we were talking about how we can get some more information e.g.:

• Interview someone who can give you information about the sixth form e.g. Head of Sixth Form 
• Talk to year 7 students
• Video the interviews
• Take pictures of Students learning.... etc. 

One of my classmate particulary good at ideas and she told us that we could do a link where you can see the RockChallenge 2008 where the Convent won the compatition and we can put this link to our Convent homepage. I though this was a really good idea even we do Print for L.O. 1.3
I learn that we have to explore are ideas even with each other than we can make our work better and help each other. Also I learnt that in a class there are creative minded people so we have similar and different ideas that makes our lesson more enjoyable.

23rd of Nov. Self Assessment 1.2

Hi everyone In Miss Connel lesson I had to make rough sketches of adverts in L.O. 1.2

My advertising focus for year 7 are print ( newspaper) and Tv board in the school

What went well about my year 7 adverts are the details on my newspaper, the infromation and the pictures were good in my TV board advert my pictures was good and the infromation look welcoming and pleasant

The year 7 adverts would be even better if in my print it should be more pictures  and less infromation  and the same in my Tv board advert.

My advertising focus for the sixth form are Internet (school homepage) and School Newsletter

What went well about my sixth form adverts are Internet: Good details and the idea that there is going to be moving images, the fact that on the website you can click on a link and it would open a other website page where you can read more about the sixth form In my other advert  School Newsletter: the infromation is welcoming and that I draw and write the logo and the slogan in the newsletter.

The sixth form adverts would be even better if In my School Newsletter there is to much writing and it should be clear and interesting to people to read it so i should use bullet points

In the peer assessment I learned that if I write a lot of details to make it interesting I have to use a same amount of pictures as well and if its too much information than I could make a link where people want to read more and open another page where they can see more pictured and read more, as I learnt that I also learn to make my advert clear, everyone could understand it and for that I could use Bullet points. Also moving images are very good and interesting.

Out of all the adverts I would like to further develop Sixth Form Poster advert because that advert could go to a local areas and people would see it and they would come to our open evening and they could see as I done in my advert that people are friendly here and the school is OUTSTANDING and that we welcome everyone to this school.

Out of all the adverts I would not like to further develop the year 7 Tv board advert because that is in our school or it could go to our website but not many people could see if its in our school just our students and it would not be able to go further like to the street or mothers who liked to find a good school for their children.

22nd of Nov. Mr Mills's lesson

Hey there. :D
Today we used Mr Mills lesson for looking and researching about other schools and we were discussing that how they advertising their selfs that what we done in the first lesson.
We looked at videos about other school  they had:

• Welcome videos
• Video about Boarding ..etc.

We also compare the websites to our website and we were talking about advantages and disadvvantages about how our school and other school advertising their slefs.
It help me a lot to understand why it is important to watch and research about different schools, because in L.O.1.3 we are going to make comparessent about different school so this lesson will make it easy for me as it is for my classmates.


In the second lesson we asked Mr. Mills to let us do our bloggin so Here I am and I blog.
Thanks for reading :D:D

22nd of Nov. Mr Foley's lesson

Hi everyone :D Today in Mr. Foley's lesson we were talkin about L.O.1.2 and 1.3. in Unit 1. We were asked to make some notes that what we need to do to get the best mark in this L.O.
Firtsly we need :

• To research in 2 different area Sixth Form and Year 7 enrty points.
• Conventions
• Breath Key Studies of Adverts
• Examples of different school ( how they advertise their selfs)
• 2 or 3 different formats e.g. Print, Tv, Internet
• Intial Plan  (ideas and Brainstorming)
• Slogans
• Notes
• Traget audience : (Year7 and Sixth Form)

Than in 1.3 we have to choose which one we make the advert for year7 of Sixth Form, and thats going to be the final product and Mr. Foley also told us that we have to finish this product the 1st week of December. The ideas that we write we choose one and we develop it further. We also can put questionnair on the advert and we could put the advert to newspaper , metro, radio...etc
These ad should go to local areas that near to our school or it should go on train that pass the Harlesden station so we could put a ad in Bakerloo line (that could be catchy where are slogan and logo is stands out to people recognise that its an ad about our school).


Today we also were looking at Advertising techniques and we also made notes on it.
Sir told us that we need to find out where school advert goes in a newspaper ( locate where it goes the colours and words type.. etc. We could put the ad in London based, Educational, Brent, religion area or (Catholic Magazine)
We also learnt about the slogans that how we should make it or how we should presented:

• humores
• alliteration
• Catholic
• girls school
• Academic quality
• Tradition

Selection Slogan: More effective: -need to be a decision made as to what type pf person to be use, you must be able to justify it (using someone 'normal' or famous) I also learnt today that we cannot  directly compare with another school, however in 1.3 research we do make comparessent 'to the real product'.
I learnt a lot of thing about 1.2 and 1.3 that how should I make it step by step to be good for the mark scheme and I also learnt new words and advertising techniques.

Miss Connel 19th of Nov. (Firday)

In every lesson we were ask to look carfully what the task ask us to do.

• Firstly we had to research about the History of Advertising in the UK and get some information about it e.g the biggest agency in the UK (AMV BBDO) than then when the first agency been set up (1812).

-When we done this we started to do our presentation.
-I done 3 presentation when I felt that my Final one is the best and i have no more work on it than we had the presentation day in Monday.
-In monday we all done our presentation protending that we present it to new member of staff.

Mr Mills Lesson 01/11/2010

Today its the 1st of November and in the last two lesson we had Mr Mills. We were talking about our presentation that we will make and present in 2 weeks time.
I am really enjoying Mr Mills lesson because its always fun and I always learn something new.
Today in this lesson we:

• We learn how to do a new account in Prezi.com <- Website.
• Mr Mills showed us step by step how to use the Prezi website and how to make a good presentation
• Doing this with Mr Mills made me change using power point presentation to prezi because I find it easier to use it.

I think the purpose of this task was to learn how to use different things and to get into new staffs.
Doing this, learning how to use Prezi made me realise that in Media there are meny things that you can learn.
Thinking about it now it was a really good that I choice Media Diploma.
I think the most important thing that I learn today is that what I learn in Media will be very useful in my future.
