'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!

Some slasher and rom-com links

Just tidying up my bookmarks and thought the following might be useful (if not already posted):
on slashers: http://www.best-horror-movies.com/friday-the-13th-part-2-the-definitive-slasher.html (the site and article; free e-zine to sign up to and a forum); http://www.nj.com/entertainment/tv/index.ssf/2009/03/from_monstrous_metaphor_to_bra.html; http://www.eatmybrains.com/showreview.php?id=119 (not the best written, but a very useful site and a forum)
rom-com/'chick flick': http://titirangistoryteller.wordpress.com/film/the-chick-flick/ (useful analysis, including an historical overview, and range of examples)
