On the 8th May the BDC department hosted a screening of video production work. The work showed was a selection of the very best Year 13 Documentaries and A2 Level Music Videos. The high level of work showcased proved to be popular as the room was crammed with students wanting to see the video work on display.

Year 11 BDC students with their teacher Chris Lewington undertook the huge task of helping to create the 2007 Year 11 Yearbook. Using their photographic skills that they have been taught during their BTEC First Diploma, these students photographed all year 11 students for the yearbook. The yearbook is professionally printed and all year 11s are presented with a copy at celebration evening. This is the first time year 11 BDC students have undertaken such a high profile, professional brief. All the students that helped with the task are in the accompanying photo looking proudly at their finished photography work for the first time.
Year 13 BDC students are working hard to complete their final major projects. All year 13s are working in groups to complete a sequence from a documentary, the range of topics is vast and includes areas such as arranged marriages, moped culture, wrestling, online dating, adoption, disability, top of the pops and many more..... Currently the year 13s are working hard on the final edit of their films that will be completed in a couple of weeks. A screening of the finished films will be held in a few weeks for the whole school to view.
Two of last year's BDC year 13 students have currently work posted on the BBC London website. Naomi Cushborne and Stevie Robinson have radio packages on truancy and eating disorders respectively. This is a fantastic forum for showcasing the radio work that BDC students produce at The BRIT School. The packages can be heard in full at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/content/articles/2007/02/22/brit_fm_feature.shtml
On the 18th April, the BDC and English department will launch the new visions e-magazine available to read online through the BRIT schools' website.
