Thanks to Chaya for finding this really good (and short) YouTube video about how colour grading can manipulate the mood of a film:

Blogger of the Week

Well done this week at AS to Lizzy, who posted two entertaining and informative videos about BARB, which we looked at in class. And well done to Emily at A2 for blogging in detail about what she could use from our BFI Study Day in making her own music promo video. Blog on!

Blogger of the Week

At AS we've moved on to our study of Audiences and Institutions, so particularly well done to those who have blogged about BARB and/or OFCOM - it's all still relevant to your coursework to some extent. The winner this week is Nikita, who also posted a wonderful quality recording of her performer playing her piano music for her film opening.

At A2, the winner this week is Georgia, who has come up with a genius idea for her film trailer. I can see a short film in the making, too. Well done!

Blogger of the Week

Dear Bloggers, this week's joint winners at AS are Tabitha (for catching up fully on her posts and achieving 30) and Katriona for using her Media skills across the curriculum in a French video about the Paris terrorist attack.

At A2, our blogger of the week is Emily for blogging in lots of detail about the ups and downs of greenscreening the first section of her music video. Fablogulous!
