Two Media Areas

We have decided that we are going to focus on TV and film as our two media areas. However, written media such as newspapers would also be a good media to have some knowledge of, this giving us extra reference.

We need to have a variety of examples from both TV and film, so productions that are made in different periods will give a range of views on British identity.

Film:

• Past example - "If" - directed by Lindsay Anderson.
• Past example - "Alfie" - directed by Lewis Gilbert.
• Modern example - "An Education" - directed by Lone Scherfig.
• Modern example - "Fish Tank" - directed by Andrea Arnold.

TV Show:

• Past example - "Ashes to Ashes" or "Life on Mars".
• Modern example - "Skins"or "Misfits"
