Goals for the Future

When I leave college I want to go onto uni to study Media Production or Directing. I have a look at a few uni so when it comes to applying next year I have some idea of were I want to go.
So far I have looked at Bath Spa, Staffordshire, Lincoln and Bournemouth. The other uni's I want to look at are Bournemouth arts and UCLA. I also want to look at The Met Film School.
After uni I  really want to get a job working in films, I feel that I would enjoy working in film rather than T.V. I would really like to be come a director or a producer. I've always enjoyed the idea of being behind the camera and making the film.

Cold Fusion

Here is my final cut of my short film. I was able to keep it under three minutes. When I watch it back I am happy with how it looks however there are a few things that I would change about. I would of liked to re-do a few camera shots as they are not the best. Also I would of liked to try some pan shots. I did have these written down but because of time problems I wasn't able to do it. If I was to redo this move I would of made sure I stared recording as soon as I can so if there any problems with cast or site and can fix and work round them.
Over all I am very happy with how this short film turned out, I am looking forward to the next film I get to do and be able to apply and develop the skills I have learnt from this project.

Website of Mobile and Computer

Here the two final pages for my website
This image is of my Mobile design.  This is what happens when you click the menu button at the top. A box will aper I have done this because I want to it be simple to use and I don't want there to be lots of things on the front page.

 This is what my home page looks like for the computer. I have put a slide show, showing four images. I have done this because its bigger so I am able to show each image at one time.

Testing set up for music video

Today I want to get an idea of what set up I want to have for my music video-
This is the practice setup. After doing this I know I want to use the soft boxes, this is because the light on the left is to bright and there are no cover for it. Also I have used the oft boxes before and I like how they look on camera.

Communication Channels

OfCom
'Ofcom is the communications regulator. We regulate the TV, radio and video on demand sectors, fixed line telecoms, mobiles, postal services, plus the airwaves over which wireless devices operate.'

The Independent
Here is a copy of an article that is on there web page
‘If you have tuned in to the 2016 Presidential primaries for the first time today, the reaction to the Iowa caucuses may seem bewildering.
Ted Cruz, a man hated by the Republican establishment and a senator for only three years, has beaten Jeb Bush, who has spent nearly $100 million winning a few thousand votes.Donald Trump, a pantomime act six months ago, beat everyone but Cruz, including Republican golden boy Marco Rubio.Half a dozen well-established names, from Bush to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, as well as Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee, the two previous winners of the Iowa caucuses, have all been soundly beaten.Instead, Cruz, Trump and Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, have won more than 60 per cent of the Iowa vote between them.But tonight Trump isn't a winner nor Rubio a loser. Expectations are everything, and Trump was expected to win, while Rubio was predicted to be a distant third.’
Here you can see that they use long text and more elaborate words. This is because it’s an article and not a news story. With articles you are able to go into more detail and explain thing in more detail. If this was to be reported on the news they would have to make it a simple and quick as they could.  

TV AND RADIO
There is a big difference with T.V and radio. When it comes to the writing in radio you have to be much more descriptive with your words as there are no cameras. However when it comes to T.V you don’t need to have as much emotion in the words because the camera and there facial expressions can really help tell the story.

Planning our Toy

In this lesson we created our first idea of our toy. My group are making a dolls house made out of smaller blocks. We are doing this so you can make what ever sort of house you want. the blocks will be different colours, they will be made out of foam with velcro.
in the next lesson we will start to deign our toy in a program so we can get a better idea of what it will look like.
