These videos are separated into two main areas. This home page links to all of the YouTube playlists split by topic (videos appear in multiple categories if their theme overlaps). Secondly, there are some standalone videos, or more intimately curated, for certain areas. These are likely around your themes, coursework, etc.

Subpage Links

This a list of theme-specific, curated videos (also available from the menu dropdown)

Horror

TikTok Video Collection

There are some videos from TikTok worthy of a look, but given these are harder to playlist and curate, they are available on a separate link.

Curated Playlists

If you have suggestions, please email the video link to Mr Minett.

These playlists have been curated for many years, so the categories have no rhyme or reason. At some point, these will be re-categorised, checked and re-done. The different playlists have been grouped by the production stage relating to filmmaking.

These are playlists, so do not be put off by the video showing, it's merely the first video in the list. You can open the playlist by clicking on the 'burger' menu in the top right or on YouTube to see the other videos.

General / Misc.

This is a catch-all for videos that haven't yet been sub-categorised, are too general to fit into an area of filmmaking or cover other areas of the curriculum such as photography, coursework tips, etc.
