effective although lacks clarity in places.

on media products and processes, demonstrated by frequent

effective explanation of how magazine covers reflect the social and

cultural contexts in which they were created.

throughout.

5) On Section B, focus on Question 7 - film industry and Black Widow. Use the mark scheme to identify three ways Black Widow was marketed to its audience.
