Episode twelve.

We picked our favourite James Bond films this week. Cam's was Goldeneye and Shanara's was Spectre. We decided if we were going to be comparing bond movies, we needed to get one of the classics in there too.

Couldn't go past the one with lasers and jaws and space sex.

Our focus this week was the same for all three movies:

-Conventions of a James Bond film

-Bond and Villain

-Villains plan

-Gender issues

Episode 8: Our first special Assessment Task episode.

We are very excited to be doing our first assessment task. This week we didn't pick specific movies, but a more general theme to research and discuss.

This week we discussed female directors and women in film.

Specifically we focused on:

-Movies we were surprised were directed by women

-Whether a female director makes a difference to a movie

-Changing opinions of female directors

-Women in film

We felt this was a really important issue to discuss. Please listen and give us any feedback or comments you might have about women in the tv and film industry.
