Thank you, I'll keep them coming!

Did u switch subjects?

ARMED DEFENSE any evidence?

@ARMED DEFENSE ARMED DEFENSE mate, you're not gonna get a job commenting hate on other people's videos who actually have jobs. Especially when he has over 6 thousand subscribers, and you have what, 10, is it like a proper account or a joke one, like you. You're tryna hate on him, but your profile pic is a gun and with a name like armed defence, you sound like a twelve year old kid. I know your probs gonna read this and go to your mummy's room and cry, but before you do that, grow a pair, get a job, and move out of your mum's basement. Cause life's not gonna get easier by chatting shit, if you can actually ever get a job, maybe when your old enough, try not to be a dickhead to everyone better than you, you'll get fired pretty soon dipshit

ARMED DEFENSE unemployment’s a bitch huh

@ARMED DEFENSE you have a job in security? Yeah right, you couldn't even defend your ass when a 16 yr old kid starts on you. Honestly mate, who do you even work for? Your little brother? It's funny how you take a day to reply to something just so you can see how many comebacks your mummy can think of.(they're shit, btw) the fact that you have to list them so you can tell the difference between them all, paha. Pathetic, you actually have no life mate. Respect people man, actually take time to compliment people instead of dissing them. He's making good videos that actually tech stuff. You want to dis on people, don't do it to people that are trying to help others. Who's that gonna impress dumbass? You're girlfriend you pinky promised you'd stay with?

It all depends on what you want to do as a career, if you want to be a filmmaker. Such as a director or a camera operator, it’s not going to be a whole lot helpful because in 2019. Only 30% of your course is making films which is how you improve your work. By doing it! There are also only guidelines in filmmaking such as the rule of thirds. In media, they teach you rules that you have to follow to get marks and your original idea has to be the exact same as the project you come out with. This is wrong for filmmaking. Another huge part of media is the representation of gender, in marketing this is important for the huge equality importance now a days however in narrative films you have your fictional characters with any personality you see fit including racism, sexism and anything seen as a misrepresentation of minorities. So for narrative filmmaking, media is largely not important. However it’s also a double barrel because it’s seen as a must to be a filmmaker. I took it and I do regret it however it all depends on what area of media you want to do!

@@ashtonjones6593 does my gun pic in my profile pic offend you ? It looks like it does, go get yourself a kitten to calm your fragile nerves.

Glad to hear it - you should find quite a lot on this channel to see you through the next two years

@@TheMediaInsider thanks, I'll definitely come back to this channel when I don't understand something

Glad to hear it! I’m hoping to expand on this video by doing a complete Skillshare on it

Wow, thank you! I'm aiming at really ramping up the amount I post (it's been awful for a while now!)

@@TheMediaInsider at vetnsnndjrjdjzjk Dr k

Glad it helped!

@@TheMediaInsider your awsome

Go for it, Bint!! I started teaching at 28 after doing various production jobs - I love it

Happy to hear that!

Been two years aha but how did it go or how you doing now ? 😂

Thanks!

The Media Insider to take gcse media I had to take a taster session but I was ill and I really wanted to do it

@@TheMediaInsider I'm thinking of choosing it for a level but I didn't do it in gcse Should I still go for it

Peter Grahame - not really.

Thanks! How to read a film is really good!

THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Yeah, long story but I'll still be posting the same kind of stuff!

Media studies is not really the most respected subject from university, you should take it only if you really like it or plan to take it at uni. I would suggest to take a facilitating subject like English or maths that would be more appealing to any university, that being said media relates to business and economics as it has to do with audiences and marketing but it is a vocational course rather than academic so chose carefully (I am personally taking it as an a level but I also plan to take at uni)

@@joshpantsy1131 was is good at A-level and did u have to take it at gcse to do well?

@@nyeeeeeecourse7232 I found it fun at A-level and doing it at Gcses kinda helped but I don't think it was necessary.

Thank you!

If you want to go down the academic route then yes, otherwise you could start looking for work or an internship immediately

The Media Insider thanks for reply , But what does it mean academic route and even how i get that ?! Thanks for your help

The Media Insider But how can i find work in this fild without any background in same field or any cirtificate please if you can guied me i am thankful to you !

Actually English is similar to Media Studies.

Aditya Jaokar you're right, but the things we learn in English is about Romeo and Juliet, Sherlock Holmes and Jeckyle and Hyde novels which I think is boring for todays generation. I never listen in English, I struggle to... However Media Studies I find more interesting for its visual imagery.

@ARMED DEFENSE yes you can, yh.

Depends on where you live - there are endless opportunities in the cities like London and Manchester, but there is a lack in rural areas obviously. Have a look on any job site and you will always see opportunities for multimedia designer, that sort of thing

Yes, but in in the U.S and Canada it's causally used to describe the more creative end of productions. film, instillation, art pieces etc. . The term was used more in the past, not as popular now.

ARMED DEFENSE or perhaps its because it’s a school. Where under 18s go. I’m sure you are smart enough to know by law in the uk it is illegal to expose minors to pornographic material.

Leave college, Become a bronze age middle Eastern merchant bro, trust

was it good?

Is that good?!

Any good?

@@TheMediaInsider Yeah it’s pretty good so far

Preach

@ARMED DEFENSE - thanks for watching my videos - you seem to do it a lot going by the number of comments you leave! Since the nature of your comments is very negative, could you please stop and perhaps try something else? You don't have to like media studies, but your comments aren't helpful.

lmao what

@@moraps9014 its true, media studies tutors havnt got a fucking clue about film, I myself am an actor and our acting coach said that media studies is the biggest waste of fucking time.

@@mgtowchampion7961 I mean yeah, why would we want to understand how the stuff we're spending over a third of our days consuming is affecting us...

@@christiancottingham so how much money have you spent on shit apple products and over priced shit final cu(n)t Pro for your utter shit pc sjw college class movie ? Admit it a media studies course is a Mickey mouse degree that will never get you a job in the film industry.
