What Grade are my Responses?
You can use this page to help you understand what a quality response looks like.
You can also use it to try and extend yourself beyond the grade you are currently getting or to aim for a high quality response and A grade.
By combining our understanding of 'AIMME' which helps us created good photos and 'TEEAC' which helps us write good paragraphs, we can write good paragraphs about good photos which will make us successful communicators both visually and in written responses.
As you have now practised, multiple times, you should be able to respond to your image yourself. Consider the example of quality responses and the grade you are aiming for. Try to make your response look similar to a grade above the one you are aiming for just in case.
For Your Process Journal
Go to your 'Advertisement Photos' page on your process journal. Make sure you have inserted your photos and labelled them. Create a heading under these images called 'Responding to My Advertisement Photo.' Complete the following:
Copy & paste the following framework below your heading:
-Topic
-Explanation & Evidence
-Analysis
-Conclusion
Fill out each section with at least one sentence.
Complete previous steps.
Make sure you have written several sentences in the Explanation & Evidence section of your paragraph (referring to Make, Method and Edit). Provide analysis of your images that links them back to advertisements in photography.
Explore intentions behind the colours and fonts you chose to edit in your advertisement image.
Provide APA references for your response.
Complete previous steps.
Expand your response in to two paragraphs where one responds to the type of advertisement you were inspired by (70s - show a story / lifestyle, 80s - simple tag line and style that can be replicated, 90s - cause a conversation, 2000s - reveal the vibe / experience of consumer).
Provide evidence for intentions behind the colours and fonts you chose to edit your image (e.g. comparing them to other similar advertisements, such as finding an example of another sports product and exploring how a sleek, bold, modern font has been used and linking that to your choice to use a similar font to advertise a sports product).
Provide APA references for this response.
Complete previous steps.
You should have multiple paragraphs that evaluate your advertising photograph, making reference to the parts of AIMME and using in-text APA references. Your paragraphs should explore photographic advertising and how your advertisement is a reflection of one of the four kinds of ads that we explored.
