Cascade courses
From graduate Richard McCormack:
I managed to get into TV through a training scheme last year and it’s running again this year. The scheme is run by Middlesex Uni but it’s open to anyone. I think the closing date is 26th November so they may need to hurry with their applications but it is worth it!
In organising the first ever Lincoln School of Media’s ‘Meet the Graduates’ event I have sourced a variety of content from our alumni – from graduation day photos and shots at work to interviews with us in the studio and on location. As part of my Masters [in digital media] I decided to experiment with convergence in some media technological areas I had not done before. After trying to squeeze a lot of practice into a short space of time here is my digital mash up to promote the AlumniFest on Wed 10 Nov 2010.

Hurry!
From Abby, at Nokia Push:
The deadline for Nokia Push N8 submissions has been extended to Friday 22 October 2010 at 6pm GMT.
We’ve been blown away by the variety and quality of the submissions we’ve received so far. But we had so many requests for more time to develop ideas that we decided to listen to the community and push the deadline back.
So, this means there’s still time to enter to win a prototype, Nokia N8 devices and a cool $1000 to cover your production costs.
