Media Arts At QE
The annual Media Arts Evening is a chance for students and teaches from the school, plus those who have worked with the school to showcase their work, whether it is dance, singing, films or animated films. The 2009 Media Arts evening was said to be the best yet, with a warm atmosphere to it and a wonderful variety of performances ranging from: two local primary school choirs, local dancers, Indian and Irish Dance fusion performed by two year 10 students from QE, animations produced by students on the Olympics, a range of humorous animations made by teachers from QE, 6th form media work and several other dances.

Famous quotes containing the words media and/or arts:
“One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
—Joshua Meyrowitz, U.S. educator, media critic. “The Blurring of Public and Private Behaviors,” No Sense of Place: The Impact of Electronic Media on Social Behavior, Oxford University Press (1985)
“Having a thirteen-year-old in the family is like having a general-admission ticket to the movies, radio and TV. You get to understand that the glittering new arts of our civilization are directed to the teen-agers, and by their suffrage they stand or fall.”
—Max Lerner (b. 1902)
