Sonic Arts: To Do Today




Today's priority is to write a script and to get your script filmed, this is your main interview and will form the 'backbone' of your video profile. So if you haven't yet filmed your interview you need to finish writing your script and rehearse it before filming in the TV studio. The TV studio is room 3SE1 Studio 4.

If you have filmed your script you need to find/gather photographs/shoot addition video material for your video profile. You can get cameras from the Technicians store on the 3rd floor next to 3 SW17. Do not film offsite. Only film with the college building. Please return equipment and return to the classroom by 12pm.

We will be editing your interviews and the additional footage on Monday morning so that it is essential that you have the footage with you (do not lose your SD cards - give it to me if you think you wont be able to take responsibility for them).
