Media Awards
We've had a few questions about the Media Awards as it used to be in October. However, due to the timing of the coursework for the new specifications, it's now in March. We’ll have more information about the Media Awards nearer the time!
Don’t forget the Greenford Media department runs a Twitter account that tweets and retweets useful articles, links and questions that A Level Media students should be keeping up with. You don’t need to join Twitter or tweet yourself but follow us @blogmacguffin or simply visit twitter.com/blogmacguffin to look at the account from any web browser.
A Level Media Textbooks
There are now textbooks and revision guides available for the new specification AQA A Level Media Studies course. We would strongly recommend you buy as many textbooks you can as collectively they cover the whole course in terms of subject content and also feature many of the CSPs that will come up in the exams.
Important note: if you're eligible for the bursary (or even think you might be eligible) then the school may well buy these books for you! Speak to Mr Halsey to find out more.
The details:
AQA MEDIA STUDIES FOR A LEVEL YR 1 & AS: STUDENT BOOK
AQA MEDIA STUDIES FOR A LEVEL YEAR 2: STUDENT BOOK
AQA MEDIA STUDIES FOR A LEVEL YEAR 1 & AS REVISION GUIDE
Creative Mentor Network
The Creative Mentor Network is an incredible opportunity for post-16 students to make connections in the creative and media industries by shadowing a professional for several weeks. We’ve had a number of students complete the project and develop a fantastic range of contacts and experiences that will help them to get a job in the creative industries in future.
You can find more details on the CMN website or watch the video below (featuring our very own Hussein!)
