Film Industry assessment learner response
Create a new blog post called 'Film Industry assessment learner response' and complete the following tasks:
1) Type up your feedback in full (you don't need to write the mark and grade if you want to keep this confidential).
4) Now look at Question 3 - focusing on Hesmondhalgh's point that making media products is a 'risky business'. Write three bullet points from the mark scheme that you could have added to your answer. Try and include a specific reference to the CSP where you can and ensure you understand the key contexts to Hesmondhalgh's quote. Additional reference to Hesmondhalgh's ideas would help here too - you may want to look back at our work on Hesmondhalgh and the Cultural Industries.

- New technology is opening new ways to distribute films and Blinded By The Light now has an
extended slot on Amazon Prime which will bring in some of the money it has lost. However,
it remains the perfect example of why the cultural industries are a “risky business” as
Hesmondhalgh says.

- The film barely covered the production budget and nowhere near covering marketing costs.
3) For Question 2 on the promotion of Blinded By The Light, use the mark scheme to identify at least one strategy used to promote the film that you didn't mention in your answer and why it was used. The key lesson from this question was to make specific reference to the CSP in your answer and ensure each explanation was different.
Music/existing fans of Bruce Springsteen. Link to Springsteen’s music may attract fans of his music – he has sold more than 150 million albums worldwide.

-Blinded By The Light then received a huge, global marketing campaign to try and turn the
film into the next Bend It Like Beckham global hit. This could easily have cost more than the
$15m production budget.
