Hello and Welcome...
Welcome to SSSFC Film Studies very own blog!
This is for everyone to use to share their ideas, their thoughts and their favourite things.
It is the home of Micro Analysis for those studying the AS course, and it is a place for A2 students to collect resources and interesting information for your FM3 Small-scale research projects and your FM4 Summer exam.
Blogger is an easy site to post YouTube videos and images on so feel free to make links with new trailers for movies, music videos or interesting advertising virals you have seen recently.

Upload videos that you have saved by clicking the 'Insert a video' button...
Link to other websites by (you guessed it) clicking the 'Link' button...

Click on the share button at the bottom of the video you want to put into your post...

Some code will appear that has been highlighted. Copy this highlighted code.
Go back to your post and click on the HTML button at the top left hand corner of your page.
