Learning about Camera Shots

One of our goals this term is learning more about creating more professional videos to show what we have learned.  As part of this work we were learning about framing more effective shots.  Today we looked at  photography techniques such as rule of thirds, use of shadow, horizon and critical focus and then worked in groups to take photographs which used some of these techniques.

Stark Enterprises Class Economy Party

We are having an unusual Golden Time today.  Stark Enterprises is having a relaunch party as part of our class economy.  Stark Enterprises run by Callum has organised a number of events as part of the party including an auction for Robert's legendary lemon drizzle cake and a Joseph Dream coat.  VIP's are also being treated to special snacks while in the general area people are paying for a shot of a sweetie grabbing machine.  A lot of hard work has gone into the event and everyone is learning more about money and entrepreneurial skills.

Move over Warren, there are a lot of entrepreneurs are on your tail.
