FUTURE LEARN

Today I signed up to an online course called Future Learn. I signed up to this course earlier in the year but decided to do it again as I thought I would learn even more this time and it would be a good reminder of what I learnt last time. The website allows anybody to take up any of the available courses they wish and the courses last 6 weeks. Today I signed up to the "creative arts and media" course and then clicked on "explore filmmaking: from script to screen" (which is what I did last time). By signing up to this course I hope that I am able to deepen my understanding of the filmmaking process.

Each day the NFTS (National Film and Television School) release a new task to complete. Look at the picture below to see my progress so far.

The boxes that are coloured blue are the tasks that I have completed. The boxes in pink are the ones that I have clicked on but haven't yet completed. The boxes with no colour are the links that I have not yet clicked on.














Each post/ task contains either a short video to watch or a picture to look at. The videos will normally be of clips from recent short films, or an interview of one of the filmmakers.
After doing this I then go on to read the writing below. Sometimes they will ask me to leave a comment about the video. Not only am I am able to leave comments but I'm also able to read other peoples comments and can even "like", reply or follow them. This will enable me to learn from others aswell, therefore further enhancing my understanding on filmmaking.
