Looks like I'm the only one, joy!
sometimes I feel as if I'd be more enriched in life if I bought an RV and started cooking meth

Oh, I've done years worth <_< >_> :P
But seriously, I haven't even finished my holiday homework yet :S
I have a feeling that Media is going to be my 5th or 6th subject.

What holiday homework?

I've watched one of our movies, and the commentary, and read some stuff, and thought of ideas

Basically it.

Don't let it! Media can really get you a high score if you know how to approach it properly. Just putting in a decent amount of effort you'll get over 40, and if you really know what you're doing you can definitely get over 45. Don't just let it slip away and be a bludge, you can get a seriously high score if you learn it properly.

Basically it.

I have to watch 10 movies and write 200 words on each about the production elements. So far I have done 5 movies.
I've forgotten what movies I'm doing this year, but the theme is post-apocalyptic.

Thanks, that has really motivated me :)
I don't intend to bludge through Media, it's just that I struggle with analysing production/story elements (heck, I can't even remember all of them yet as it was assumed that we knew them when I started Units 1&2). I've yet to memorise the technical terms like pan, tilt, wide shot, etc.
At this point in time, I consider Media to be my worst subject (although I am starting a new subject this year that I didn't do Units 1&2, so I'm not sure of my capabilities in that subject yet).

TELL HIM TO DO SCREAM BY WES CRAVEN. Possibly the BEST film you can do for narrative...EVER!

That's the one I studied :D Watched it at least 10-15 times! Either that, or suggest psycho by alfred hitchcock but psycho is pretty boring but still good to write on.

Seriously con him into it haha.

haha cheers ATAR :)

For media, I'm hoping everyone I tutor gets 45+ though. I think it's entirely possible :D
