AS week beginning 8th Oct

I notice from your blogs that not everyone has uploaded their City of God essay. It is vital that this is done by Sun evening (well past the deadline) as this essay forms the major part of my early assessment of your work. Failure to submit will trigger a letter home, prep and may threaten your position on the course.

This week.

Homework 1

I hope you all enjoyed the experiences you had yesterday.

a) Following on from the first session which allowed you to explore representations of teens and apply this to creating a DVD cover. Please write a reflection on what you learned during this lesson in a blog post by next Thursday.

The second lesson was focussed very relevantly on what you are preparing for at this moment - your preliminary exercises. These will be filmed and edited over the next two weeks on Thursday with the aim of having completed them soon after half term. 

b) Again, as preparation for next week please reflect on the lesson and what you learned especially your developing understanding of editing for continuity, the 30% and 180% rules and the importance of action cuts. Agin post by next Thursday.

Both these posts will form evidence which you can use as part of your Foundation Portfolio and will therefore contribute towards your overall AS grade.

Homework 2

Read and review the short scripts prepared for Homework last week by other students. Read and comment on at least two while ensuring that you have posted one of your own. We will be working with these on Thursday. 

Incomplete work will trigger Prep.
