Camera operators are responsible for the Canon XL 2 manual and the sound operators are responsible for the texts put on the blog plus the audio recording part in the Canon XL 2 manual. There will be five questions in each test. Good luck.

Make Up Exam

The make up exam will be tomorrow (23rd of December). Starting at 17:00. Please come to my office and then we will go to the exam venue together. The make up exam will be consisted of five short essay questions. One strategy would be thinking of possible essay questions and answering them in a group study. Good luck.

Note for producers

I expect from all producers to prepare their budget for the projects before coming to class. As it was stated in the syllabus all participants in project are supposed to contribute with 10 TL. Students having a problem with this budget contribution fee please see me. We will sort it out.

Reading source for sound operators

Here is a source for sound operators. I will recommed you two texts rather complicated yet compact and satisfactory. There will be a short presentation in class about the special terms used in these texts. You may take the quizes at the end of each section as a preperation for the special test you will be given as a part of your assignment. I advise the sound operators to read these texts carefully before coming to class. Here are the links:
