    In reply to: Jenny McNulty posted a message in the group WJEC A Level Media Studies: Hi – I’m new to the WJEC Media spec and am a bit stumped on the MS1 paper in relation to the issues section – do you have to study a few […] View

    Hi Jenny,

    Hi Steve,

Our practical work for the AS students is a magazine project in which the students make a front cover and two double page spreads for the 1st edition of a new magazine.

    Hello Sarah,

    In reply to: Steve Murray posted a message in the group Film Language Resources: Danny, were you responsible for those Powerpoints on shots, angles, lighting and colour? If so, thanks for providing me with material for […] View

    Can’t claim credit I’m afraid. A friend of mine who works in NZ found them at his new school and sent them to me. I thought they were fantastic so decided to share the wealth. I’ve cut them down into smaller presentations because there’s so much there!

    Enjoy

    I daresay a lot of people involved in its creation are now distancing themselves, maybe they’ll even be lending their ’expertise’ to where cuts can be made. It’s time to ’move forward’ not to dwell on mistakes of the past blah, blah…
