Wales!

I'm in Wales at the moment and I've been lugging the snazzy media rucksack along with all of the equipment up and down hills and mountains like the dedicated student I am. So far I've made a vlog at the top of a big hill and I've done some filming at the beach which we might be able to use. I'm off surfing tomorrow so I might be able to get some good footage there!

Third vlog mac 3

A vlog on our time lapse adventure around the town!

Second Practice Film

So Khadijha and I did some more practice filming today, it was eventful and we ended up getting told off by one of the security guards, unfortunately we didn't film it, sigh.We tried out these shots because we're thinking of making some sort of psychological thriller and hopefully (fingers crossed) we'll be able to get some shots like this but in a hospital. We left the shaky bit in at the end because Khadija thought it looked 'effective'!

Second Vlog!

Vlog number two, oh the embarrassment once again!

First Practice Film

Yesterday Khadija and I got all of our equipment and decided to go out and do a bit of practice filming around the churchyard, here are the results!

Preliminary task inspiration

So according to Khadija, this was the inspiration for our prelim video, oh dear..

Alan.. Alan! AL!

Let's be honest, this has to have a place on my blog. BBC's 'Walk On The Wild Side' is footage of animals in their natural habitats combined with comedy voice overs and the end result is hilarious!

Sophie's first vlog

This is my first vlog, yay... (not)

So filming my vlog was probably one of the most stressful things I've done all week. You would not believe how long it took me to find an adequate piece of technology in my house that you can film on, as my laptop webcam was pretty bad quality! I settled for my camera even though the sound quality, and I seem to be lacking a tripod, so ten carefully balanced books and boxes had to make do... I found it really embarrassing making the vlog by myself, and my parents probably think I'm going a bit mad, hopefully I don't end up on some form of medication!

This is how I felt after my vlogging experience, I now need to go and lie down in a darkened room...                                                                                 

Ski video

This is a short film by The Sherpas Cinema featuring JP Auclair skiing through a small town in British Columbia. There  are several different interesting camera angles that we could use in our film opening... If only we could ski like that too!

Prelim outtakes

This is our outtakes video featuring the main star, Ms Foster. Obviously, yet again, it is amazing.

Prelim video 2012

This is our prelim video, it's amazing if I must say...

Let's just say that bursting through the media room door screaming "I'M GOING TO HAVE A BABY!" every two minutes, while ofsted were in the room next door, is an experience I will not forget.

And this is Eleanor while she's editing --->

New favourite tv programme

Thanks to Elena (http://eleanormitchellmediastudies.blogspot.co.uk/), I've now found a new favourite tv show! Grey's Anatomy is one of the best shows I've seen, to say the least. It follows a small team of five interns at Seattle Grace Hospital and it shows their day to day lives at the hospital, as well as their lives outside of the hospital. As I've begun watching the show right from the beginning, I'm not sure what is going on in the most current season, however, of the most engaging story lines in season one and two is that of Doctor Sheppard and Meredith Grey's love affair. Personally I'm hoping they will at some point end up together, so fingers crossed!

Most wanted gadget

If I could have any gadget I would have a DeLorian time machine. I'm not sure if it exactly counts as a gadget, but it's a cool car and a time machine, who could want more?
