MONDAY 25TH MARCH

Rescheduled class for Monday 25th

Due to my availability on Wednesday I am re-scheduling the class to Monday which I know may be  problem for some of you.

If you can come for at least 10 minutes then I can give you specific instructions regarding Assignment 3 submissions etc.

There will be a lesson on Wednesday BUT only from 4.30-5.30 and this will be to collect in ALL assignments including the portfolios.

More details on MONDAY.

Please be there.

DEADLINES

DEADLINE REMINDER

• Trailers
• Research, Planning and Preparation (portfolio)
• Evaluation

All three elements of your final controlled assessment MUST be completed by the end of this term. 

28TH OF MARCH 2013

There is NO guarantee that you will gain the grade you want if you do NOT complete this work by the deadline.

For those of you who may have outstanding CA from earlier in the course, the deadline is the same. Please ensure that you see me earlier rather than later to make sure your overall Portfolio of Assignments is complete.

You are getting really close to the finishing line now so make sure you get there - finish your work.

Classwork catch-up

Some of you were out on a trip last lesson (6th March). You will need to complete the work in your own time. Remember, it is for the exam. Use this resource (Kerrang article) to help you fill in the sheet.

Ask your peers who were in the lesson for help if you need it, or come to see me.

Miss.P

FRIDAY CATCH-UP

Only 5 students attended this session due to a clash with science revision.

It is vital that those groups who have not completed their trailers do so as soon as possible - ideally this week.

The media room will be open for this important work every afternoon and the following lunchtimes.

Monday
Wednesday
Thursday
Friday

In addition, there are a number of you without completed assignments from earlier in the course or significant work on their portfolios. The deadline for completion of these has long gone and it is your responsibility to get any outstanding work to me ASAP.

If you are in doubt come and see me and we will look through your folder and see what you need to do. I will be seeing individuals on Wednesday afternoon during the lesson for 5 minutes.

FRIDAY'S ASSIGNMENT CATCH-UP

9.30-12.30

You will have the opportunity to work on completing any outstanding controlled assessments.

Wednesday 13th February

Today's lesson hasn't been cancelled but it has to take a different format from usual and requires a significant level of independent work from you.

Ms Patel will start you off at 3.30pm but cannot stay with you.

It is expected that you will be working on completing your trailers. If these are complete in every way possible then you should begin making notes for your evaluation.

Things to evaluate:

• how effective was your research into conventions, audience, institutions, genre etc.
• how did you plan - script, storyboard, animatic, test shooting, schedule - how did you realise your plans? Which elements were most successful and why?
• production - most effective elements of production, what you learnt from the process
• post-production - the editing process, how sound and image are used effectively, titling

remember this is your PERSONAL evaluation and you need to identify what you did and what you learnt.

Ms Patel will return at 4.30 to see how you have got on - a register will be taken. 

Use your time well.
