Practical Production Evaluative Commentary
PLANNING
* The aim of the media text was to create an effective and well
organized video informing ITV of the teacher's award.
* The audience we aimed at was the pupils in our class and the few
teachers who may be watching, but generally for the pupils.
* The research and planning undertaken was spread out evenly between
our group. I was researching the technical side to our
presentation, for example the cameras we can use the software
facilities etc. Lee was researching the various camera angles that
we could use and the different types of direction techniques that
could be involved. Jibran had a lot to do with the literature that
was used s he provided the main source of speech and directions to
what we have to do. Alex helped provide Jibran with the
fundamental ideas on which Jibran could improvise.
PRODUCTION
* Techniques we used in order to attempt to create a successful
piece of filming were various shot angles to provide the audience
with a stable understanding with the location and the atmosphere
in which we were filming. The processes we used were: we
experimented with the different cameras provided to us in order to
find something we found comfortable to use. We stuck to a simple
approach when filming and didn't try anything fancy; we hoped this
would create the feeling of a natural movie whilst the audience
was watching it.
* We hoped to target the audience by using intriguing questions when
interviewing and maintaining a flow when cutting between scenes.

Hungry for Change is a documentary that exposes the truth about the food industry, eating habits in America and what we need to do to change it. The film explains why what we are eating is not real food, only food-like, and why we are so addicted to processed food. The food industry is adding chemicals to food which not only destroy our bodies but are designed to keep us craving more. Producers use food labels like fat-free or sugar-free to mislead us to think that their product is healthier but they are just trying to disguise what is really added. Artificial sweeteners and MSG are chemicals added to food to make it more addicting, like the chemicals in drugs or cigarettes. People do not realize what they are putting into their bodies; documentary explains in depth what these chemicals are doing to our bodies and how to change our habits.
Naylor’s audience is the committee and members of the audience, including his young son. Naylor is defending a controversial idea with controversial evidence and support, whether it goes against what he believes or not. Naylor’s own morality is called into question. Logos, pathos, Kairos, and ethos, the mainstays of rhetoric, can all be found throughout Naylor’s defense. Rhetorical fallacies can also be found throughout the sequence.
Different from Hypodermic needle model (Williams, 2003:174-178) or other early opinions defining audience as a passive group who only passively consume the media’s messages without any resistance(CITE ?PPT ), ‘Limited effects paradigm’ shows the active side of audiences. ‘Limited effect paradigm’ shows that audience are not people who are the ‘passive, isolated and impressionable entities of mass society’, on the contrast, audience can be seen as individuals who ‘interpret what they saw and heard in line with their own already established beliefs’ (Williams, 2003, pp. 174-178) The arouse of ‘Limited effects theories’ is the first tim...
Speaking of audience, the audience of this piece is students in high school who are just starting to look for where they want to go to college. The author makes it very clear that this is the audience when they stated that, “As you begin your college search, one of the first decisions you need to make — and one that helps narrow your list — is what size college you want to attend.” The author directly refers to people who are beginning to look for the right college for them. These people are high schoolers and they are the audience for this piece. The final concept to be discussed is the voice of the author. In this article the author is very casual and positive when writing to the audience. The author’s word choice include words like, “ Itching to break free of the high school fishbowl” and “robust social life at most small colleges.” An author who would act professional would not use words like these, but use more
Cognizant of the fact that quality care is less expensive, for a number of years, healthcare organizations have looked for ways to improve quality and operational efficiency while cutting costs. Although American medicine is the best in the world, there are no doubt that there are also waste and inefficiencies in the system that have put health and resources at risk. Patients who stay longer than need in the hospital are exposed to infections. Vital informations are at times lost in transition from primary care doctors to specialists. These are some examples of inefficiencies that require quality improvement.
Quality Improvement or QI entails changes, due to collective efforts of healthcare workers and patients, that aim to improve “patient outcomes (health), better system performance (care) and better professional development” (Batalden & Davidoff, 2007). For a healthcare facility, QI activities can include implementing and perfecting an infection control policy. The purpose of improve the infection control policy is to prevent and reduce the spread of pathogens through patient to staff, staff to patient, and patient to patient contact (Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care [ACSQHC], 2012). Following a facilities’ infection control policy involves all healthcare workers and anyone in contact with patients and used equipment
There is a purpose in doing performance evaluations, in which it helps management make general human resource decisions. Performance evaluations provide input to help make important decisions such as promotions, transfers and even terminations.

Performance evaluation can help to see who will get merit pay increases and other rewards.
Oftentimes when we walk by an aisle looking for a bottle of dish soap or a box of cookies, we are given two options – a generic option that costs $4.49 and a brand name option that costs $6.39. The only difference between the two may just be its physical attributes. However, as consumers, we are often unaware of the possible similarities and often opt for the known brand name product. These decisions often reflect consumers’ perceptions of a product’s quality and in turn, affect their purchase behavior. With the rising question of whether consumers’ perceptions of product quality differ from measures of objective quality, companies are growing increasingly interested in developing and changing their marketing strategies. With the available options today, consumers may perceive two products with similar, if not the same claims, differently, and thus will affect their purchase behavior.

There are several reasons organizations initiate performance evaluations, however the standard purpose for performance evaluations is to discuss performance expectations; not only from the employers perspective but to engage in a formal collaboration where the employee and the manager are both able to provide feedback in a formal discourse. There are many different processes an organization should follow when developing its performance evaluation tool; in addition essential characteristics that must accompany an effective performance appraisal process. I will discuss in detail the intent of a performance evaluation, the process an organization should follow in using its performance evaluation tool, along with the characteristics of an effective

On the next two sections the same activity and same class discussion. While students are doing their activity I am secretly observing their attitudes; the way they speak, the way they move and the way they perform their tasks. I was very careful with my words that time, for me not to commit mistakes and because I want to get the attention of my students I remained serious all throughout the
