CIQ responses
Thank you again for the CIQ comments - I'm missing 2 though...if you haven't written a response can you please do so?
A few of you have mentioned the cropped sensor/maths. There isn't really anything that you have to "learn". I was simply making you aware of the fact that certain sensors on cameras crop the image. Therefore a 50mm shot becomes more like a 75mm shot. Just something to be aware of when shooting...

Another comment has caught my eye though:
What action that anyone (teacher or student) took in class this week did you find the most confusing puzzling?
"when we were put into groups, we like to choose our own groups..." - I appreciate this but at times in your career you will have to work with other people than your friends. Working with new people also challenges your own creative ideas.
However, the second part of this comment needs to be addressed:
"...and dont particularly like task work"
Can you elaborate on this? I'm unsure how I can rectify this? I also think it's a bit disappointing if you literally mean that you don't like doing tasks in lessons.
Please comment anonymously below as I'd like to know what you mean and how we can move forward as a group...

AM: I was thinking we could look at some of the auditions for your short film in Spain before we move on to this weeks session....could someone bring the footage?
PM: DSLR people - could you bring your cameras? Also, could you comment below with what lenses you have?
Cheers and good luck with auditions
