Exemple of exam script: Production and distribution
January 2009 Section B
"Discuss the ways in which media products are produced and distributed to audiences, within a media area, which you have studied.
Candidates must choose to focus on one of the following media areas though you may take reference to other media where relevant to your answer.
Film, Music, Newspapers, Radio, Magazines, Video games"
If you were answering this question, you would obviously be writing about production and distribution of videogames, getting in as many relevant references to case study material - Rockstar Games, Mojang or your own back-up case study to use just in case needed!
Here is an example of a script from this exam - do you think you could produce something like this? (or even better!)

GTA Shipments hit 125m as "special" series continues to grow

Wii U - Shigeru Miyamoto gives us a tour of Nintendo's new console

The man who made Mario has high hopes for the first of a new generation of gaming machines
In 2006, Nintendo announced the Wii. Everyone laughed at the name, then everyone laughed at the crazy TV remote-style controllers. Then everyone stopped laughing, and there was an odd silence from industry analysts and pundits, who simply didn't know what to make of it. The public, however, did: the Wii became the best-selling console of its generation, cheerfully trouncing the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, by managing to coax non-gamers of all ages into having a go.
