Preliminary Task:

For the preliminary task we have chosen to film the scene in the style of a western film.

Location: Saloon-type doors and corridor, leading into a room/space with two chairs.

Script: (Roland walks through doors to the room where Derek is already sitting, playing with some money and chewing on a toothpick)
           ROLAND: (Slams hands on table) You stole my gold.
           (Derek looks up and raises eyebrow)
           ROLAND: You left your filthy stench on my property. (Bangs fist on table)
           DEREK: Well you left your filthy stench on my wife! (Presses up from the table, kicking away the               chair behind him)
           (The two men stare at each other angrily.  Roland turns and leaves, Derek follows, throwing down some money as he leaves)

According to the article in THE GUARDIAN (Jan 2009) why are the major players in the British magazine industry better placed to weather the economic crisis?

The bigger magazines, while they can still be hit hard by the recession, are less likely to be hit hard by a decline in advertising income. The best advertisers have the least places to advertise their products and will be worried about losing front pages of the glossies - prime advertising space in their eyes - to other brands. The bigger magazines also have more circulation, so the advertising companies will be more likely to choose to advertise in these magazines as they are more likely to be able to sell more. This means that smaller magazines will not get as much money from advertising, and so eventually dwindle and die.
