Updates on Several Units

Animation

• I have now finished my 3D and 2D animations, and I uploaded my 3D onto Youtube. 
• I now just need to write up an analysis of the two projects and I will have finished. 

Critical Approaches

• I have filmed and edited our project for critical approaches, and I have uploaded it on Youtube.
• I downloaded the clips from Youtube that I needed to put into the video, and I also downloaded sound effects.
• I recorded a voice over for the start.

• I also uploaded some work that I did a while ago for C.A., about the representation of certain media texts and how they target their audience. I chose to do The X Factor as it has a wide audience, andGirls Aloud's video, as it has a specific audience.

May Work

Multi Camera Project

• From the end of the April holidays until the end of term, I will be partaking in a multi camera project. We will be filming the Festival of Colour for the Hair & Beauty department at Totton College. 
• For the festival, we have to create a video in groups to show at the event. I am acting as team leader to my group, who are creating the introduction for Level 3 "Catwalk Designers".
• On Monday, we will be going to Southampton Solent Uni for a "masterclass" in production, and this is where we will be creating our videos. We are hoping to use a professional lighting rig and green screen.
• Our video idea will be Cassie and Katie on a "runway", walking up and down crosscutting with each other. We will have a lot of flashing lights which will make our video more interesting.
• We have to create the introduction to our video, which we are hoping to do on After Effects.
• Our video will then be shown as an intermission video at the event.

Animation

• I have finished and uploaded my 2D animation here:
• I am now working on my 3D animation. I am going to do a time lapse animation, filmed in Salisbury. I am hoping to film for either 30 or 60 minutes. I will be using a digital camera and a tripod, and I will take photos every 2/3 seconds. 
• I will also be doing another 3D animation, of which I have not decided yet. 

Critical Approaches

• For Critical Approaches, we have filmed our video, and all I need to do now is edit it. I need to download the clips which will be inserted into the video, and I am going to record a voiceover for it. I will be editing this weekend and during my break on Tuesday.
  

Legalities in the Media

• I have now finished and uploaded most of my work to my blog (http://amysmediablog00.blogspot.com/) and last week we filmed and I edited our mock interview, which I have also uploaded.
• We have filmed the group discussion, and I just need to capture and edit it. I will then have completed this unit.
