Another First!

Today we got back our grades for the TV Studio Production module. Our group had all been hoping to get a first for 'The Alternative Lunch' and we were quite confident about it...and we got one! So we were all really pleased about that. At the same time we were given the grades for our individual dossiers and I was surprised to find I'd got a for that as well.

Knowing that I've got a first overall for this module, it has started me thinking that for my 3rd year production I'd like to do something that is TV studio based.

First!

Today we got our marks back for the Digital Media Culture essay that we submitted before Christmas and I was very surprised and pleased to discover that I'd achieved a First in it! I was aiming for a 2.1 and thought a 1st would be nice but would be a bonus.

The essay question that I chose was 'choose one area of the cultural industry and assess the impact that the Internet has had on the way that particular industry operates' and I decided to focus on the music industry.I found this essay quite difficult to start off but once I'd got going I really quite enjoyed writing it. From writing this essay I've been thinking that this may well be the sort of topic area that I want to focus on for my dissertation next year as it's something that really interests me. I've always had a love of music so being able to mix this with media is something that I'd really like to do, and beyond my degree as well.
