Hm its probably my mind trying to not freak itself out but still think that no technique is important enough that it HAS to be included for your piece to be good unless its imagery but i'l probably lose a mark for this mistake =/

The gods were smiling upon me in one sense though

i did 1 conflict context pract piece, it was

"It is important to take a side in conflict"

The real prompt was

"It is hard to be a bystander"


fairly similar, spewed out the same shit

yeah, im pretty sure the only thing they're going to actively deduct marks for is failing to analyse the image. apart from that the examiners will be looking to give you marks; trying to award you for your analysis of the techniques you choose.

its a personal thing considering different people respond differently to certain techniques, so no two people are bound to analyse the same to techniques. as studyinghard put it nicely before, just chillax, as long as what you have included is comprehensive in its positioning of the readers/audience you'll be fine

lol lucky i saw that and fixed it
