•         we expect you to be able to work all of the equipment, from cameras to editing programmes like Final Cut Pro

•        we expect you to achieve your potential
•   we expect you to reflect on the skills you are learning as this will help you in the A2 year

In return we will allow you access to some of the best equipment available to students of media studies.  We will help you understand the requirements of the project and we will share our expertise in film making, and knowledge of the editing programmes.
