Lecturer feedback - areas for improvement

You have given a good explanation of the principles of editing using many references to help. It would be useful when using a blog to use hyperlinks or to insert the relevant clips. You definition of the 180º rule does not sufficiently explain the technical advantages of following the rule or the use as a code for the audience. You also seemed to get bored with your explanations toward the end of the entry and only provided a video as an example without explanation! You did not explain the development of editing techniques over time.15.1M In order to achieve 15.1D, you need to develop your ideas critically (ie compare, assess and discriminate) supporting the points you make with clear arguments and evidence. You must be precise in your explanations using specific examples from the videos. The rules you refer to must explain why that principle has developed (eg the 180 rule allows the viewer to follow the action without getting confused.


You have explained the purposes of music videos giving relevant examples and using appropriate terminology. 28.1M In order to achieve 28.1D, you need to give a more fuller and more extensive explanation. (e.g. the video of 'When September Ends' is a production in its own right).

You have explained the styles, conventions and techniques used in three videos, although not very different genres. You went into some detail but neglected to analyse how the editing techniques used reflect the genre/pace of the song. 28.2M In order to achieve 28.2D, you need to deiscus styles, conventions and techniques, justifying your points made with supporting arguments and developing your ideas critically (ie compare, assess and discriminate).

For both 28.1D and 28.2D, you chould be using complex sentence structures and use a technical language to express complex ideas.
