Teachers TV

Teachers TV filming crew came to our school and observed and filmed us. They asked us questions about the course. They asked us things like what our favourite part of the course was and would we recommend it to people. I said my favourite part of the course was the fact that we went on a lot of trips. I think this is a good because it's not just sitting in a classroom, which I find helps me loose concentration a lot quicker, but it is getting outside of the normal school environment. It was really interesting watching the professionals do what we've been doing all this time and to see how it really works. In the lesson we were doing prints of Barack Obama and ourselves. They filmed us working from many different angles before asking us questions. I found it difficult not to look into the camera when we were supposed to be working. I found it off putting trying to act normal when they were so closely observing us. If we said something in a way they disliked they would ask us to repeat is again and just change things. It was interesting to see how they operate behind the scenes because on the TV you only see it once through you don't see all the "bloopers" so it was fascinating to see how it operates.
