1. editing 

year 12 what you did do and the limitations

initial knowledge in editing- only experience was on windows movie maker. poor quality no creativity. 

coming into year 12 we began learning to editing on premiere pro by creative dancing animal video- basic editing task. imported video, used basic cuts, colour effects, effects and transitions. no creative input was just used to learn about the tool premiere pro had to offer.

Juno and prelim- basic cuts, played with inserts, effects, sound effects still early stages of learning. 

Films opening-  straight cuts, black and white for flashbacks to add to and help portray the narrative.  Music on top of video- limitations now looking back we could have played around with more effects making black and white more grainy to add to the old effect. poor sound quality could have been adjusted. Colour correction. 

year 13

prelims- uncreative just copied another music video however we chose videos which were technically hard for editing- had to use you tube to earn some new effects on premiere pro, use colour adjustment to match other music video. 

Banana phone- learning new techniques, cloning, screen within a screen act. 

Music video give specifics name effects - effects colour adjustment, how many cuts in the first minuet? 

how did all this work make the final music video  better. 

• better quality 
• more professional 
• creative
• more effects

poster- made on photoshop but the limitations were that we didn't really know how to use the program and the text is hard to see. 

year13 

tour poster- 

magazine -

digipak - photoshop to play around with colour effects to sharpen photos and add to our synergy. 

compare to real media examples e.g. ed Sheehan showed great synergy throughout his albums we wanted to have a strong synergetic recognisable theme the way he did so that are artist could be recognised by her brand and colour. 

3.website 

year 12 

In year 12 we used wix to create a website however this was a very basic use of a pre structured layout we had a limited number of pages and only included a homepage,  we did not manipulate anything and didn't match synergy.
