Embedding maths and english

How im embedding my Maths and English in my media projects.

English and maths in our Christmas show:

Maths:

• ·         Time frames when recording.
• ·         Mince pie challenge. We set a specific time to do the challenge in and a specific amount of mince pies in that time.
• ·         The number of people we have in each group (tech and producers). We need to have enough in each group to get things done separately.
• ·         The number of ideas came up with at the beginning of the making of the show when we did a group brain storm.
• ·         Votes to decide what will be included in the show.
• ·         Polls of what people like the most in class and outside of class to be used as statistics in the show (Favourite Quality Street).
• ·         Time keeping when traveling to and from location to film VT’s (CEX game shop in town).
• ·         Timing when changing camera angles and VT’s during the live show. (Vision mixer upstairs in the studio)
• ·         Splitting payments between team member when buying props/petrol etc.
• ·         Strategic/symmetrical placement of bows, tinsel and trees on the set.
• ·         Strategic placement of lights, cameras and props on set (set designers).

English:

• ·         When writing the scripts/proposals.
• ·         When making a plan at the beginning of the making of the show.
• ·         Good pronunciation and communication skills, otherwise the production wouldn’t run smoothly.
• ·         Contacting companies/charities that will be included in the show (Foodbank).
• ·         When discussing our progress and plans with our lecturers and production crew.
• ·         When updating our progress on Blogger (using good SPaG).
• ·         Emailing each other/ Facebook group chat to let everyone know what’s happening at what time and catching people up on what they’ve missed.
