'MULTIMEDIA'???

The term multimedia is used frequently in discussing how/what to blog to get into the high marks band. You're partially marked on the 'level of care in the presentation' and 'use of ICT' within your blogs. What does this mean? Multimedia = a combination of images, hyperlinks, podcasts, videos, vodcasts, links lists and other blog tools, use of Facebook/YouTube et al for audience feedback/research/marketing etc. Level of care means taking time to appropriately illustrate posts, find useful hyperlinks to include [generally make a phrase into a hyperlink; don't just type 'here is a link:'!], and checking your links work, images have been properly embedded (always: save and upload, never copy/paste or drag in), posts don't have massive gaps/white space (if you place a lot of images in a post it can take some tweaking!). I try to apply these principles. Make your blogs at least as good as this one!

Film Fests and The Cornwall Movie Massive!

Another quickie: partially as it links into the research you need to do to show your grasp of the instiutional context of film, but also because its simply intriguing, check out http://www.britfilms.com/festivals/browse/

For similar reasons, but also as it might inspire some of the more energetic and ambitious amongst you, have a look at this: http://www.devon-cornwall-film.co.uk/2009/06/ - a quite extraordinary record of/resource for amateur/hobbyist film-makers in one overlooked corner of England
