Feedback

Week 2
Some of the shots are framed wrongly.


Reflection

The hardest part wasn't the exercises themselves but documenting them in the e-portfolio as I often forgot to do that which led to a bunch of workload piled up at the end of the semester.

I learned how to use software such as Adobe Premier Pro and Adobe After effects which will come in handy in the future. The process of framing shots and storyboarding were new to me as I usually never planned beforehand when I wanted to film something for fun. Overall, it was a great learning experience and I hope to increase my video and sound production skills moving forward.
