From compiling this list, which spans a century, I have learnt that I am not the biggest fan of films. From my list I have noticed that I have not even seen the films like Star Wars, which are very popular on a global scale. However, before we even started this coursework, I was and still am a huge fan of music and music videos. I thoroughly enjoyed creating the music magazine for our AS coursework and it taught me a lot which put me in good stead for this piece of coursework. If I go with my interests, then it might be better if i create a music video.
