Yr 12 - Welcome Back

A huge welcome back and a Happy New Year to all of you! I hope you had a wonderful holiday and are ready for the challenges of the year ahead... I am sure it's going to be great one for you all!

So I just wanted to update you with all of the information you need to know for this coming term:

CONTROLLED ASSESSMENT

• The shooting deadline is this Friday which means the bulk of your footage should be ready to edit by then.
• We are now in post-production which means you should be working on your opening sequence in lessons or in your own time.
• Your final piece must be submitted on Friday 10th March for moderation.
• A rough cut of your opening sequence must be ready for viewing on Friday 10th February. 
• Room 57 is open most evenings until 5pm for production work.

EXAM

• Mock exams begin W/C 6th February.
• We will continue to dedicate Fridays to theory work until 23rd January, where we will then spend 2 weeks preparing for the mock exam.

GENERAL NOTICES

• As you are aware, we do not currently have a technician, which means that there will be allocated times to rent/return equipment. These are as follows:

1. Lunchtimes (1:25 - 1:40)
2. Before school (Mon-Thurs only - 8am - 8.35)
3. After school (Tues - Thurs only 3.10 - 5pm)

Any questions, please ask!

Thanks,

Miss M :-)
