Introduction to my A-level media blog

 Hello, I have now finished my AS-level media coursework and have moved on to the A-level coursework syllabus now.

I also feel as if some of my interviews didn't really correlate to my topic as much as I would like them to have. What have I learned/ what will I do in my final task differently? In my final draft, I will continue the idea of...
