i'm talking about film and that

Making a short film is a difficult task but i feel the year 13 are beginning to explore the true potential of the medium. I've included the link to the BBC Film Network Page - it deals with all aspects of professional short film making - but i also think that it covers the rationale behind it.
Basically your ideas are good - you all need to nail the story - concept is fine - but i want a story - we all want a story. Nonetheless check out the link - and certainly check out the films on offer here.

Meanwhile the Year 12 are embarking on the new WJEC Film Studies A-level and we are currently looking at Yasmin and This is England [for all those old students who did film - see how i managed to continue showing these two films] I'm toying with the idea of doing something creative tomorrow - i'm tired of analysis - well i guess you're tired of my analysis - so perhaps we'll do some cutting and sticking - you know we like to.
I found this specimen paper - you ought to take a look - it kind of has the questions you'll have to do in it. Take a look here
