'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!

John Motson

A famous football commentator for those who don't know. An indirect way of re-stating that I'd like you to be commenting on the posts you see on this blog.

What do you think of the imminent new equipment? What do you think about the various outlets for young film-makers posted? I've heard you discussing these, so try and reflect some of this here on this blog!

And I will be reminding some of you tomorrow of your failure to post comments with suggested resources as requested - here, here, here, oh, and here!!!

Your comments should be insightful, intelligent; basically rather unlike some famous Mottyisms:
"It looks like a one man show here, although there are two men involved."

"Nearly all the Brazilian supporters are wearing yellow shirts - it's a fabulous kaleidoscope of colour."

"The World Cup is a truly International event."
"The goals made such a difference to the way this game went."

I think the new mic will be a very valuble asset to our filmaking.
I know many of the films (including mine particularly) were let down by poor sound quality.

Am I right assuming that we can also use it for recording radio pieces and maybe even music?
