Alright... I'm talking to my teacher as I send this, and he says: stay away from videos. He told me this is what the supervisor of his IB seminar told him LAST YEAR.
He said h doesn't have a document specifically to prove it, but that he trusts the supervisor and highly suggests to stay away from videos.
The reasons for this are:
But he does say you can do it, and probably get away with it, but your grade will be lower
Hate to put a damper on it, but I'm just the messenger of what my IB HL Art teacher said
He said h doesn't have a document specifically to prove it, but that he trusts the supervisor and highly suggests to stay away from videos.
The reasons for this are:
- How do you make a photocopy of your video and send it to the examiners?
- How do you represent your video in your workbook because your workbook cannot move (unless you live in Harry Potter world
) - Videos officially fall under cinematography now for IB

This is a big topic for me in particular. I already submitted my pieces for HLA and I was able to show both the video in totality in both the record book and in my investigative workbook. It took time and effort, and I even included a copy of the artwork in my actual book so the examiners can watch the video if they choose to.
My teacher had no objections to it; he even encouraged it. He may have been wrong, though...
Nevertheless, I would advise anyone: you could at least try it, if you're interested. Regardless if there is another subject strictly for videos (I mean, there's Film already...), you would be able to at least expand your artworks by including one more different medium. And, when it comes to your IWB and your interview, you could show ample research on how you agree that visual arts does include film. It is visual, and it could well be considered an art form. I've documented my journey through it, and even interviewed local documentary film makers.
I'm not trying to derail Julie's opinion - she is incredibly more well-versed in Visual Arts than I am. Yet, for people who are curious, both those who posted above and those who haven't, I would suggest making one or maybe two videos just to get your feet wet, but, by no means should you make your entire studio work all videos.
Visual Arts isn't all about work; it includes fun, too!
