Teaching Resources

For teachers and educators - this week’s focus is Youtube resources which might be useful in the classroom, or to share with students?

• Student films are often heavy on the swearing. This short video from Dominic Morgan/Scriptfella is a brilliant demonstration of the power of selective profanity.

• Really useful video comparison of different editing software from Professor Film, aimed at aspiring editors who are unsure about where to start.

• Cinora Films' Youtube channel: videos include advice on film festivals or low-budget filmmaking, as well updates on the state of the industry in Scotland and beyond.
