Evaluation 6 weeks

I have been doing a level 3 new media for 6 weeks now and during the 6 weeks I got a studie buddy to contact if I need any help also I have made a blog on blogger by making a account and posting text, pictures and videos on it and learning the many ways I can use my blog and the differnce uses it has, I have also been putting my work on there so my touter can view it and assess my work. Then we where told to use a website called Prezi which is a presentation softwear online, we where told to make presentations about something we wanted to do/where intrested in doing in the media industry e.g. acting, photography ect... at the same time we made a rough script and a rough plan for my video profile that we where asked to make things like the camera angles, camera movments ect... I then re-edited my script and cut out bits that I didnt want in it and then moved on to making a story board for my video, we where told to make a video about us or something we where passionate about.
Then we where put in groupes of 3 or 4 and were told to get a camera and tripod and go and film the five shot sequence of a each of us doing something like listing to music, calling someone, reading a book, writing or drawing using the 5 shot rule, after that we came back and put the videos on the computers to edit and get use to using Final cut pro.
Then after we had done that we where told to film the scenes we wanted for our video profiles and also do our commentry using the script we made and put them all on a memory card that we where all given individually and after doing so we put all the vidoe from the memory card on the computers to start editing using Final cut pro.
During the 6 weeks we kept a lesson log and week review, in our lesson log we set one main target to be achived and sub-targets which will help us achive that target and also keep us on track and the week review helped us see what we did in the week that had gone by.
After we had finished editing our videos we uploaded them and put them on our blogs for them to be assessed.
During the 6 weeks I have learnt how to use Final cut pro and the 5 shot rule also I have made 2 videos and my own blog I have enjoyed the time I have done these and think it all went well.

Evaluation Video

My video profile is a about me and what I like doing and what kind of person I am, I started it by filming the scenes I wanted but I still wasnt happy so I helped others with filming and some editing and got some more ideas about what I wanted to do with my video.
So I did some filming around college and some at home and had some that I had done before so I looked through what I had and what I needed and filmed any extra things I needed.
After filming everything and getting all my videos together I decided what music I wanted in my video so I downloaded a few songs that I had thought about using in my video.
I then log and transferd all the videos I wanted to use and imported all the music I was going to use and did the same with the pictures, After that arranged the videos and music to make a rough edit and I viewed it and kept playing around with them for a little bit.
Then I decided what music and videos I was going to keep and not keep, after that I began by making my intro and adding the video and music then when I was happy with it I did the middel and after that I decided how I was going to end it, After I made a edit I was happy with I then did my vocal commentry and added it to the time line.
Then I sliced and arranged the commentry to fit in with the video then I lowerd the parts of music so that it wouldn't over lap my voice and renderd it all.
After all that I decided to fix all the little details and added some text where I it was requierd, then after I added some effects to make my video look better and less boring.
I watched it a few times and tweeked bit that I thought didnt work and then I asked people what they thought about it and listend to what they said and was happy with it so I exported it and uploaded it to YouTube then embeded it to my blog.
I was happy with it but I feel that if I had longer time to shoot and edit my video it would have been better and one thing I would change if I did it again would be my commentry because I can sound boring at times but overall I think it worked and went well.

My names Mahan I’m 17 and at the moment I’m doing level 3 new media. I didn't do too well in my GCSE's but I got enough to move on to college but I needed a C in English so I re-sat and passed and while doing that I did a Level 2 b-tec in Preforming Arts and got a Distinction* and I'm also a qualified football coach.	Shots of me walking in the street(MLS/WORMS EYE/CRAB LEFT/PAN RIGHT) then me talking on the bus(CANTED/LS/XCU) and montage of surroundings and me(LOW/XCU/PAN LEFT AND RIGHT/XLS/MCU).
I worked in Boots in year 11 for work experience and it was good I enjoyed it learnt a few things. I do alot of photography and video shooting and editing for people and get paid for a few of them but mainly do it coz I want to gain more experience and learn new things.	Montage(XCU/CRAB LEFT AND CRAB RIGHT/CANTED) and pan/zoomed in and out of different places I worked and montage of me doing some work(HIGH WORMES EYE/LS).
In my spare time I enjoy taking pictures and filming also love basketball and going out with friends, sleeping,laughing,watching films and travailing and one of the things I couldn't live without is music, music is everywhere in my life I listen to it everywhere I go and when every I can, I listen to a wide range of music from dubstep to jrock.	Montage of me doing different activities(HIGH(OVER SHOULDER)/CANTED/CRAB RIGHT AND LEFT/XCU/CU) and fading from shot to shot with linking shots.
In the future I would like to work in the media industry, anything from T.V. presenting,acting,editing, filming,producing ect... Overall I would say I'm a person who loves to laugh but when I'm working I try to do it to the best of my ability and focus on getting it done. One of the most important things that I try to do in my life is enjoys what I do and have fun while doing it because if you enjoy what your doing you will do it well, you will put your heart in it.
