Blogs’ cleaning

Hi there !

I didn’t understand why Aurore has corrected my blog because I’m not in the five followers on the list… it seems like she took the alphabetical order list instead of the one on Mr G.’s blog.

Anyway ! I’ve corrected those blogs :

# TRANG P.

Hi Trang ! Well I found a little little mistake right here :

- You can hear me presentation here : => you must mean “my” presentation

That’s all =)

# VINCENT B.

Hi Vincent !

I’ve found some other mistakes, but some are just other ways to say some things which sound better to me :

-Take any opportunity to work on a film and accumulate experience
=> According to wordreference it seems that it refers rather to electricity, so you can say “acquire experience” or “gain experience” which are more appropriate to me.

- To work in this field, you must have the technical skills to utilize the computer programs.
=> You can say “use” programs

- Have a degree or certificate to complete
=> I think that you have to repeat “a” : have “a” degree or “a” certificate to complete …

- Many directors begin their careers as actor, cameraman-operator or broadcast journalist.
=> Same thing here : … begin their careers as “an” actor, “a” cameraman-operator or “a” broadcast journalist.

- These kinds of jobs require a lot a travel and…
=> You must mean : a lot “of” travels…

- He may be to relocate in depending on the projects which he is working on.
=> I don’t understand this sentence well, you mean that “he must/might have to relocate depending on the projects … ” ? If it is this meaning I think that you can’t put two infinitives “may be” and “to relocate” together but use “might or must” to express the conditionnal. Plus, “in depending on” : I think that “in” is not necessary here.

Well that’s all, very nice blog by the way =).

# VINCENT H.

I think I have nothing to add, except for this :

- see you for another job
=> Uppercase missing here !

(Thanks to the others for correcting before I did)

# VIRGINIE R.

Well, we cannot post on her blog, but it’s ok it seems she didn’t make mistakes so…

# YACINE A.

Hi Yacine,

I’ve found some mistakes in your post, there aren’t many but you repeat it several times, like :

“…forum which talks about the making…” or “…I find a lot of videos talking about animations..”
=> I think that “deals with” or “dealing with” is more appropriate.

“Next time, I searched …”
=> You can not say “next time” because it’s past so you can say “the following time I searched, I’ve found”…

And some others, like :

“I ever know some great name in visual effects productions like ILM from”
=> You mean you have never knew a such great name in visual….? ( I don’t know if my sentence is correct either, still…)

“But it’s very interessant.”
=> “interesting” is better, unless you wanted to put some French on it =)

I think that’s all =) See you in class !

I want this week-end to last forever …

Hey, it’s me again !

I was on my way to get ready for my birthday (again, I celebrated four times already this week, but it’s ok as long as I’m getting more gifts each time :p) so I just wanted to say thanks, to my friend Aurore for correcting my blog, seems like I made a looooot of mistakes, but I assume that it’s ok, we are here to improve and it’s ok to make mistakes, blablabla !

Please next time, think about the poor student who will have to correct you and write less text please ! (lol)

I just wanted to say, Aurore, that I’m sorry if I did this to you, but the thing is, I just didn’t expect that from Mr Gerome, it’s his job after all ! Seems like someone has found out how to spend a long week-end without working ! -Just kidding Mr G. please don’t give me a bad mark !!!!-

BTW : Aurore’s birthday on November 13th, we have no class on thursday but don’t forget it still !!!
