Dominic's Music Video Project

See video

On my weeks work experience I created a video about people attitudes towards music, I interviewed members of the public who visited The Grange in Beswick and edited these interviews to add to my video, I added a brief introduction and conclusion along with short pieces of narration and also added clips of me playing the songs on guitar.

Walk around the allotments

A walk around the allotments starts with a new skip arriving and ends with a lost dog found.

I've seen this guy before!

Whats all the fuss

Whats all the fuss about ? I here you ask Its always the youngsters that spot It first (It must be my eyes )

Well as you can see keen interest in the pond and what are they looking at ? Well I think I told everyone that It was a young Loch Ness Monster that has been dropped Into my pond by a large pelican. If you know what it really is then please put a reply on this page Untill someone tells me then I will keep calling It Nessy.

What Is It ?

Work Experience

Dominic Viatic, I am on a weeks work experience from my school and am creating a video about people's copncepts about rock music and if it is a possitive one. I also want to understand where some people's negative perceptions of this genre of music come from. In this blog I will be writing what I have done each day from Monday to Friday and explain what I have learnt from these experiences
