AS Film Studies: Producers and Audiences This task is designed to get you used to the style and format of the exam question. In the exam you will be given some resource material and a discussion question. The examiner will expect you to use the resource material as a basis for wider discussions about the film industry and audience. In other words it is really important to draw on your own knowledge and experience of watching films when answering the question. Your personal opinion is vital for success.
