In my lesson today, we learnt a little about the history of horror films and what kind of things we associate with horror films. We have to make a PowerPoint on the history of horror films and we also was assigned a horror film which we have to add in our presentation. My horror film is Prom Night.

In my double lesson on Monday, we used the cameras for the first time to start filming for our preliminary task. When we had used the cameras for an hour we went back to the media room where we swapped over with the other half of the class. Also, we carried on editing on Final Cut Express 4 and adding effects and sounds.

In our lesson on Monday, we learnt how to use the cameras by a demonstration from my teacher.

We also carried on finalizing our storyboards.

In our lesson today, we was taught how to use Final Cut Express 4 and the basics on how to upload videos and how to edit them.

In our lesson yesterday, we went through different types of camera angles and camera shots.
We got into our groups, I am in a group with Leanne Mok and Scarlett Colson. We started to storyboard our preliminary task.

My First Post

I was quite excited to start my Media Studies AS Level course at Kettering Buccleuch Academy.
I was shown how to set up my blog and how to change the design and add widgets to make it more personalized.
Today in our lesson, we was shown how to use the school email account so i can keep in touch with my teachers with information about my work.
I was then given a demonstration how to create an account on Slideshare and put powerpoints into my blog posts.
For the last bit of my class, i got into a group with two of my classmates and i will be creating a short performance and shown how to use the cameras and the different shots.
