At the start of year 12, at AS, we had the task of editing a short one minute video, using pre filmed video clips of people dancing in animal costumes, so we could experiment with different audio and video effects which can be used to manipulate and emphasise certain features of the clips. To carry out this task we used the programme 'Adobe Premier Pro', a feature I was not familiar with which resulted in the video looking very basic as i used effects such as colour correction, transitions and basic cuts.
In year 12 we also made a preliminary video where we created a short film opening which we had to make up ourself, and we also used 'Adobe Premier Pro' to edit this but stuck to using basic cuts and effects. We also left blank spots in the video where the screen was black to portray how drunk the main character was but looking back they look out of place and unprofessional. We also did not do as much research for this as we did at AS which resulted in us created a film opening which could've been more accurate to the genre and cohesive. We used a Canon camera to film this but we weren't sure how to use all of the settings properly so some of the shots look grainy and out of focus. We carried out some research by looking at the titles of previous film openings which helped a bit when creating our own but it would have helped to research into it more.
In year 13 for A2, we created a music video, digipak and website as our final project. This year we used more advanced digital technology like when we were editing the music video, we used 'Adobe Premier Pro' but used a lot more effects than in year 12 such as: stabilising, nesting, colour correction, and different types of transitions. We also used a Canon 750D camera and knew how to film the shots so they looked smooth and professional and fit in with the upbeat genre of our video as well as knowing how to use all of the effects on the camera.
We created a short video called 'Banana Phone' where we played wit different effects on 'Premier Pro' too at AS which helped us learn how to use multiple different effects on the programme such as: cloning, reverse, picture motion and use of scale when filming.
We also created a Steal-O-Matic to carry out our research for the genre of our music video which helped us when learning how to convert videos from youtube, play with sound, edit together different clips and making it all look cohesive and fluent.
For the digipak we also used the programme 'Photoshop' which we had never used before which challenged me because I had to get used to a new programme which was a lot more complicated to 'Microsoft Word' which we had used to create the film poster for our year 12 tasks. We also used 'Wix' to create the website and created multiple different pages along with moving images and continuous colours which we used for synergy all through our video, digipak and website.

ReplyDelete- why are you calling your film opening a prelim?
- This is all so vague and unspecific - what Canon camera? What cuts? What effects where? Why? You don't even name your film?
- What did you do on Photoshop and Wix? How did this show progress? - You need to be much more reflective - tracing progress is a bit part of this essay.
