This is a page dedicated for your year group if you have any thoughts and feedback you have for your studies.

Best wishes,

SMUFX team]]> 2022-07-15 10:32:24 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2244074760 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2315720503 Myself and classmates have had discussions about our online sessions . As covid is not about anymore and we are attending classes on campus , we don’t understand why our third lesson has to be online . As we are very practical course and “full time “ , being on campus 2 days a week does not feel like we can fulfil our full potential as students. 
A lot of the students are more engaged when on campus rather than online .

Getting there by train or bus would take multiple changes, and wouldn't guarantee us getting home the night of the event. We think it would be great if the Uni could run a coach service next year for those who want to attend the event but find it hard to make these journeys. ]]> 2022-10-26 10:37:17 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2357045707 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370327600 This is a suggestion for class room arrangements. Is it not possible to have whoville and the  shire as one large room. Maybe have dedicated bench areas? And have whoville where Pandora is now. When it comes to hair lessons it can be very distracting when you can hear people from the other side the shire.]]> 2022-11-04 15:57:16 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370327600 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370343065 Although class sizes are much better than first year semester one. I feel like the classes in the future could benefit more from being reduced smaller. Sometimes getting some 1 to 1 with lecturers is very very limited and usually for a few minutes. ]]> 2022-11-04 16:08:37 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370343065 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370364919 Some of us have discussed that it could be beneficial to have a project in which a brief is set and we have to produce a piece of footage within a group, to replicate an industry experience, similar to the “hogglebox” project the SFX students did last year. We understand that this would be a big task for all involved but feel it would help to give an understanding of working within the industry. ]]> 2022-11-04 16:24:25 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370364919 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370394478 with prosthetics being very hands on it would be nice to get additional support from available lecturers or technicians during these sessions to allow for more 1-1 advice? ]]> 2022-11-04 16:44:06 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2370394478 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374564430 We were thinking it would be good if we could work with the other courses such as model making, sfx and vfx on a joint project to get to know the other students as well as what they do ]]> 2022-11-08 07:57:16 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374564430 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374568051 Some of us have discussed how we put a lot of work into our modules throughout the year so it would be nice to be able to display our work in an end of year show, maybe including our best work and the photos of our final piece with some theming around it to help create a space that enhances our work.]]> 2022-11-08 08:00:26 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374568051 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374569704 Having a water fountain in the department would be really useful. The closest one is at the main entrance and is very slow when dispensing water ]]> 2022-11-08 08:01:35 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374569704 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374572558 Some people have expressed that coming into uni can be expensive and therefore they would like to make the most of their time whilst they are there. With rooms shutting early in the evening it means students only have a couple of hours after lesson to stay behind before they are asked to leave. Keeping the rooms open until around 9pm would allow people to stay later to complete work ]]> 2022-11-08 08:03:57 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374572558 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374574724 We all enjoy seeing past and current work such as the pieces on display in the window but we feel it would be nice to have images up in the hallways and classrooms of past/current work to help to keep people inspired and for visitors to see. ]]> 2022-11-08 08:05:52 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374574724 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374577060 Some of us have discussed how we don’t see much of Natalie and how we would like to see her around or in class before we reach third year]]> 2022-11-08 08:07:47 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2374577060 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2379083430 It would be nice to see more previous students work on walls. ]]> 2022-11-10 18:16:27 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2379083430 https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2379085851 2022-11-10 18:18:11 UTC https://padlet.com/smufxstudentsthoughts/secondyears/wish/2379085851
