Learning aim D

Use networking techniques to explore employment opportunities in the digital media 

Tyneside cinema film school 
With the college we got taken down to Newcastle where we would work on a collaborative project with a group of professionals. The project was a short horror film, we started of by setting of into groups. We all read the script and had our own little film area. This was our first practice as a group of college students. We were working with a group of people who are experienced in the film industry. We had them split up to help us with our project. We learned a lot from them. As example we learned how to mess around with continuity and use editing to create a sting effect. I took the role as a cinematographer and had guidance. They showed us how the equipment worked and the correct procedures to use.

Spark FM Sunderland University 

This was our first trip in my college group, we were taken to Sunderland university where spark FM Sunderland radio station was taken place, also we got to talk to Yogscast Lydia on a Skype call where we were able to ask questions about what she does and how we can make a living of media/YouTube. The lecturers of the Uni took us round and we were having a tour of there resources and studio’s. We were able to get a first hand experience in the radio studio. Working with people who work in spark Fm and got to know what it’s like to talk to the many people listening in to us speak. Learning what to talk about and how to talk about it.

Hartlepool University 

We had the chance to go down to Hartlepool university and take a look at there equipment and resources we spoke about foley and we learned how it was made. The lecturers there had showed us how they used Foley in the James and the giant peach by moving a shopping trolley and recording it. That created the sound of a peach going down a hill. We got to see how editing changed the sound and how you can manipulate what you create. We also got a tour around the uni been shown all the classes and the films they have made.

Teeside university 

We got the pleasure in going to Middlesbrough university and talking to a person from ladbible and a free land agent. We got to ask questions about what they did and how it was working for the company/on there own. We got 2 different sides of media in one session. Both sports journalist so we got to see the difference more clear.

Social media techniques

One of the social media techniques I have used is Blogger which I am using now to write this assignment. I use this to document all my work, showing my progression and notes. https://nathansblog11234355336.blogspot.com/2019/06/show-reel.html?m=1
