Just found out that a friend and I won this Physics competition we entered at Birmingham University. Very pleased as a now have a nice little sum to go into my round-the-world gap jahr fund



There were 5 other winners (I don't think it was ranked), but they haven't updated their site yet so I haven't seen any of the other entries which is a shame as I'm sure there were some good ones. Anywho, the brief was to produce an educational video on a physics topic of your choice - we did Nuclear Fusion.

Anyone else enter?

[EDIT] Also, I am sincerely sorry for the s*** audio work - it makes me ashamed! The camera work is pretty bad too... as you can see, I'm no film producer! In fact the whole thing is pretty shoddy in all honesty, but considering the vintage (vintage in a bad way) equipment we had, and the 3 days production + editing time we had... I'm still pretty happy with it

I think it was pretty well done, and the audio sounded fine to me (just a little distant in the classroom). Your accent made it a little hard for me to catch everything you said sometimes, you mumbly speed-speaking brits!

So congrats, I felt like I was watching a PBS special!

The narration + (acting?) was all done by my friend, which is probably a good thing as my voice is even more mubmly and generally quite hard to follow!
