Attending York Aesthetica Short Film Festival

Today me and the rest of our media class, visited York and attended the short film festival. It was an amazing experience to have the opportunity for the second year running to be involved and visit it. I found the whole experience really useful within my own course as we attended a master class called 'the a-z of music video' where the people holding it gave us a lot of information and great tips on how to create a good music video and what the vital essentials are to successfully completing it. This master class told us things such as how to make your actors comfortable on set and how to win their heart in order to allow the video to reach its full potential with enthusiastic actors. We also had the chance to visit York St Johns University and learn more about the media courses available their which was extremely helpful as I have applied for a degree course in media there and it made me a lot more comfortable in the area with my overall knowledge of the uni as a whole as well as the courses they provide. It most definitely boosted my confidence and opinion of it. The entire day was so interesting and really beneficial to me and the rest of the class.
