    Your notes show some understanding of the responsibilities of each of some crew members. However, they lack the detail required for this level. I would be expecting a short paragraph for each role, perhaps with an example of the person who fulfils this role in Dr. Who and more information on what their job actually involves. Also, most of the job roles selected are quite obscure and play an inconsequential role in production- e.g. focus puller and unit medic. Please rewrite with a focus on the main roles in production (e.g. director, producer, camera op) which will have much more value in your exam.

    Please upgrade this work by 8pm on Sunday Oct 14th at the latest.
