August is rolling around again, which can only mean one thing… BEDA is back!

For the uninitiated, BEDA is short for Blog Every Day August (or April) – a challenge I participate in every April (and most Augusts).

I’m taking a 3-pronged approach this year.

 

1. Blogging

Pretty self-explanatory, isn’t it?

I’ll be doing the usual features, like Reading Week on Fridays, my monthly capsule book reviews, and other book and film reviews and discussions.

I’ll be blogging here on robotnic.co most days, with a peppering in of some other bits and pieces like…

 

2. Video

Not every day, but some days.

I’m aiming for 2-3 per week, which will also be posted within blog posts here.

Subscribe directly to my YouTube channel, here.

 

3. Podcasting

This year I’m also giving micro-podcasting a bash.

Here’s the pilot episode. What do you think?

 

Where to Find Me

Most, if not all, daily blog posts will be updated right here.

You can also follow me directly at these places –

Twitter

YouTube

SoundCloud

Tumblr

 

Your Turn!

Are you taking part in BEDA this August? Shoot me a link so I can follow your updates!

What would you like to see me write or speak about this August? if you have any suggestions please leave them in a comment or tweet me @robotnic!

World Film Locations: Glasgow Has Arrived!

01.27.2013 by Nicola //

If you’ve been following along online, you might know that I recently edited a book.

The volume is part of the World Film Locations series published by Intellect Books. The concept grew out of the ‘On Location’ feature from The Big Picture Magazine – also published by Intellect.

The World Film Locations series explores and reveals the relationship between the city and cinema by using a predominantly visual approach perfectly suited to the medium of film. The city continues to play a central role in a multitude of films, helping us to frame our understanding of place and of the world around us. Whether as elaborate directorial love letters or as time specific cultural settings, the city acts as a vital character in helping to tell a story.

It’s a wonderful series to be a part of, and after contributing to a handful of volumes, I took on the task of editing one myself. The book features 38 films set or shot in Glasgow, 7 Spotlight essays on Glasgow as a filmmakers’ city, and an amazing group of contributors.

The official release date is 15 February 2013. You can preorder / order your own copy of World Film Locations: Glasgow here (Amazon | The Book Depository).

Stay tuned for details of the launch event taking place in Glasgow during February as part of Glasgow Film Festival!
