WARNING: Careful with your posts…

Filed under: Music For Media —— julioCMT @ 5:22 pm

Dear students,

Some of you are being careless with your posts, remember this is your creative portfolio and not your facebook. Posts should be limited to relevant information that refers to the stuff we are working on in some way. Social blogging ‘per se’ is out of place here. You need to tidy up your blogs, they are monitored and will be checked by our external examiner. They are part of your grades, they are how you present your reflective essay on your work. It is set out in the module guide from the start. gnore that at your own peril.

best,

Julio

the Major Project, such as the Abstract, title page and optional Appendices.
This meeting will also give you the opportunity to seek advice on any issues
of presentation or formatting that you may have encountered so far in
producing the written element of your project.

Experimental Film @Anglia today…

Filed under: CMT interesting stuff ! —— julioCMT @ 9:43 am

TODAY!

Visiting Filmmaker – William Raban
5pm Tuesday 26th February, Room – Cos 117

William Raban is an internationally renowned experimental and documentary
filmmaker.  In his earliest work, dating from the 1970s, Raban often explored
aspects such as performance and mutli-projection, which produced a reflexive
space that directly engaged the audience.  In his later films there is a
political and sociological critique that is more explicit.  Raban’s Thames
and East London films represent locations that he has often returned to.  A
DVD of his films was released by the BFI in 2003.  The programme will include
the two-screen ANGLES OF INCIDENCE (1973); SUNDIAL (1992); A13 (1994); ISLAND
RACE (1996); and CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE (2004). 

William Raban will be present to introduce his films.

Funded by a grant from Anglia Ruskin University’s Arts Council to
Communication, Film and Media Studies.
