The Thursday session was the final formal creative session. The quality of the work is good. My only criticism is that students need to gather their footage in a more 'rapid' manner. This has been a valuable exercise and hopefully this creative experience will inform the construction of the official coursework when we begin to attack the brief after the winter break. Students need to complete their creative work in their own time.
Today's session began with a review of the creative work and moved into a consideration of the film that was used to persuade the judges that HULL should be the 2017 City of Culture. Obviously the bid was successful and this film has received a lot of praise for its representation of the city.

The class discussion relating to media forms was very good.
HOMEWORK: Enter the VOODOO CUPBOARD and complete the creative work. I would like to review the completed films on Thursday so there is some work to be done. Edits need to be synchronised with audio, audio levels need to be precise and some sections might need re-shooting.
In the next session we will be watching the Hull Bid Film and answering the following questions:
- How are media forms used to shape meaning?
- How is the city of Hull represented?
- Where is the audience being positioned?
- Is this a successful media text?
This was the film created by the Dundee bid. How does it compare with the Hull film?
See you Thursday.
