Online exercices with communication via email, Allstudents and videoconferencing.

The audiovisual documentary in practice

The evaluation relates to a film analysis (20%), a note of intent (20%), the production of an audiovisual report (40%), the quality of the technical work (recording of sound and image) (10%) and self-assessment of practical work (10%).
 
Considering the impossibility of access to editing tools, the evaluation of the audiovisual report will focus on the first version of the work. This share of the evaluation will therefore be reduced to 25% of the final score. Self-assessment work (2 page A4) will also increase its proportion in the score to 25%.
 
 

Radio reporting

The evaluation covers all the work done during the year.
Presentation of 20 radio newspapers at 48 FM (60%), the production of a 10-minute long-format report (30%) and self-assessment of practical work during the May/June exam session (10%).
Adaptation following the COVID-19 pandemic for the May-June session
Since the 48FM newspaper presentations were completed before the start of the containment and the deadline for the filing of the long formats had been substantially delayed from the beginning of the containment phase (May 15 instead of March 16), the evaluation of the work could proceed normally. A videoconference meeting will be organized with each student for self-assessment of the work.
