Students selecting Media studies will focus on four units that introduce them to practical filmmaking and editing skills as well as the theoretical approaches to the subject by creating case studies and investigating critical perspectives within the media. Students require academic skills for the written elements of the course including the ability to critically evaluate their own work on completion of practical units, which in turn require the creative ability to produce a film brief and see it through to completion. The AS Level is both a ‘stand-alone’ qualification and also the first half of the corresponding A Level course. The AS Level is made up of two units that form 50% of the corresponding four-unit A Level. Students must achieve at least a grade D in their AS level in order to complete media studies at A2 level
