2short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.
What is design as background?Show answer
Treating design as scenery behind the acting misses the point; each element makes meaning and should be analysed as a deliberate choice.
What is wrong vocabulary?Show answer
Using vague terms instead of the technical ones (angle, intensity, transition, silhouette, condition) caps the band; precise terminology signals control.
