Module C-Represenation and text-Frontline
Frequently Asked Questions​

[SIZE=5][COLOR=Blue]Do I need to know about ALL of the Frontline episodes [/COLOR] [/SIZE]
Yes, because they can ask you to refer to a specific episodes. It is more likely that they will ask you to refer to ones of your choosing, but in a previous HSC they have asked to refer to a specific episode, so know them all.

FUCK​

if you do 2 in-depth.. you can just mention the other 4 righht?

 

[Rekkusu]

Lol, well the Frontline Syllabus is abit ambiguous though there is of course NO NEED to mention all episodes, unless if you have all the time in the world, the examiners will not expect you to mention all episodes. All you need to do is know 2 episodes in depth, or if you're game, try an extra 2 more but talk about if superficially.

I'm doing 2 episodes + 2 related texts ... seems a good balance IMO.

Btw *thumbs up to great topic*

Thanks kanga, but do you know if we're (2006ers) doing the same episodes as you guys did?

 

[icycloud]

Yes they are icycloud. The Board of Studies states what episodes must be studied.
You can see what all of the prescribed texts are for the class of 2006 here: http://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/syllabus_hsc/pdf_doc/hsc_english_poster_0607.pdf

But the Frontlines episodes you must study are:
- The Seige
- We Ain't Got Dames
- Playing The Ego Card
- Add Sex and Stir
- Smaller Fish to Fry
- This Night of Nights

Wow thanks WW -- very much appreciated.

i HATE 'frontline'. it is SO dull and hardly funny. sure, amusing, but i really do not see what the big deal is. why would people watch such crap?

sigh.

ok. there's my rant.

but i still do NOT like this module.

thanks for the info though. it helped make some sense out of it.

xo.

 

[hula girl]

"dull and hardly funny"

are you serious?
frontline is great!
well, we haven't done a whole lot on this unit, but i'm liking it so far

 

[mikej12]

Wow~~~ your a legend guys you know dat??

 

[ditto]

yeah! this is really good, thankyou buddy!

 

[ianc]

Thank you!

For me, Frontline is the hardest module because it has the most information, and it is difficult to structure in a logical way.

 

[rickn]

Wow- that was amazing! Zillion thanks! But can i just clarify something- The syllabus refers to Medium of Production and Textual form - what's the difference? The MoP of Frontline is Television and Textual form is current affairs show? Confused:S

this is a good point can anyone answer this?

lawl. This is probably the most useful module outta all of them. I personally have taken away so much knowledge of the media and that'll prolly stay with me for ages to come.

textual form is probably achieved by the use of a handheld camera, this conveys the idea that this is a 'mocumentary'
