She regularly works with artists like Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Blur, Gwen Stefani, and the Eurythmics. Her videos typically feature the artist alone in a dimly lit room and use techniques like silhouettes, clouds, and choreographed dancing. While she works with various genres, her videos for hit songs like "Use Somebody" and "Promise This" prove she directs successful artists. The document analyzes some of her most iconic videos and praises her ability to craft videos specific to each artist without an overbearing personal style

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. • Born in London where she gained a Foundation
Diploma in Art before Mastering in Film & Television
• Her videos usually involve the singer or band being
inside a dim, isolated room.
• She regularly collaborates with Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Blur,
Gwen Stefani and the Eurythmics.
• Recently she has worked with Cheryl Cole, Ellie
Goulding and Kings of Leon.
• She doesn’t seem to specialise in any particular area,
her videos are for a wide variety of both
popular/commercial and less known artists. However
videos to hit songs such as “Use Somebody” and
“Promise This” proves that she does generally make
videos for successful artists alongside her regular
collaborators.
3. • Studios are used in her videos which often contain
performances but this can vary between the artists – as
can be evidenced in the Cheryl Cole video to “Promise
This”.
• She makes videos which are specific to each artist
without any overbearing personal style but there are
common elements throughout – such as the artist
being in a dimly lit room.
• I like her work because she has worked with some of
my favourite artists and I particularly like her video to
“Promise This”, because I like the fact it’s filmed in a
studio but doesn’t appear as contrived and also the use
of silhouettes and cloudy backgrounds comes across as
dramatic, suiting the tone of the song. There are many
iconic scenes to the video.
4. Cheryl Cole – Promise This
Dimly lit room, artist is isolated
Clouds used for dramatic effect
and to contrast with the clothing
of the artist.
5. Silhouettes used cleverly and to break up the
pattern of choreographed dancing
Kings of Leon – Use Somebody
Live performance – shows versatility of Muller
as a director and is likely that the artists had a
say in the direction of the video. Also suits the
genre of music and stereotype of a rock video.
6. Beyoncé – Broken Hearted Girl
Close up of artist shows importance placed upon
them to “sell the record”, and is likely to be as a
result of pressure from the record label to sell the
artist along with the song. Black and White is typical
of a love song and R’n’B and allows the focus to be
on the artists emotions and actions rather than the
colour of the environment around them.
Shakira ft. Wyclef Jean – Hips Don’t Lie
Again the artist is isolated with the focus being
placed entirely on them as a performer and as a
person – also typical of Muller’s style with the artist
being isolated, however not in a dark room, rather a
darkened studio with light being placed upon the
artist, as if it was too dark then it wouldn’t comply
with the music and would look out of place.
