FOR TUESDAY

Well done those of you who presented today. There were some impressive presentations with a lot of very exciting ideas. Many of you presented powerful images and there was clearly a great deal of thought. Those of you who didn't present please could you ensure that you are ready for Tuesday.

In addition can you all adjust/amend your questionnaires about your presentations and film projects if you feel there are further areas you would like feedback about. And also could you complete the feedback on those who have presented so far - one less thing to do next week.

Our focus was on a specific film opening. Three Colours Blue. I asked you all to make notes in class on this and write them up for Home learning. My hope and expectation is that you will do this on your blogs.

Here is the clip for reference. The powerpoint as you know was subject to a technical fault so there isn;t one this time. Next time however...
