University of Lincoln

 

In November we held our first ever AlumniFest on campus. Thanks to all who came along to ‘Meet the Graduates’.  

Graduates answered questions from students and staff before chatting one-to-one. The event confirmed our conviction that graduate experience should be a vital input into our teaching and learning.

As an LSM graduate, your experiences, opinions and advice are of great value to us in our mission to keep abreast of media industry trends. So please do get in touch!

There’s a new way to find alumni stories, using the GALLERY link at the top of the page. Just click on a photo to read the graduate’s story. Here’s a preview:

Meet the Graduates: LSM AlumniFest 2010

Posted on by

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.

Nokia Push: New deadline

Posted on by

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.

Please submit your ideas and help us spread the word!

Tweet tweet

The distinction between songs and calls is based upon complexity, length, and context. Songs are longer and more complex and are associated with courtship and mating, while calls tend to serve such functions as alarms or keeping members of a flock in contactWe are now on Twitter, so if you are too, standby for lots of tweets, and do join in if you like. We are already following alumni e-mail contacts, and we hope this will be a good way to flag up new blog posts.
