Throughout this six week course I have learnt a lot which had made me finish my work and also made me really proud of myself.
At the start of the course we did an introduction to the course as well as setting up our own blogs which I found easy because I already had one made. We also did glossary of terms which we had to give a short definition of some key words which I found a little bit hard because I had no idea about what the words meant so that also meant I had to search the words up on the internet. I thought searching the words on the internet was a good idea because I learnt what the words meant.
On the second week we had to start planning for are video which I found very exciting because it was my first video I was making and I really wanted to do well. As we were planning for are videos we also got to learn how to use the equipment which was really interesting and something new. I thought that it was a good idea for us to learn how to use the equipment before filming because I would of be more confident on knowing what to do.
One the third week we started filming and also was meant to be done filming however I didn’t meet the target because I missed a couple of lessons. I was really stressed out as I was thinking that I will never be able to finish on time. For me to complete my filming I had to come in to college in my spear time. I would have never been able to get my filming done by myself without Ayan and Afsana (my class mates). They also came in to college in there spear time to help my film which really made me confident that I was going to be finished on time. As we was still on week three we did two different mind maps on platform and applications which I completed and was very happy with both of them.
As third week was a very stressing week, we finally began editing in week four. For are editing we used ‘’final cut pro’’ which I found really difficult because I have never used a program like that. As I learnt how to edit I also stayed behind and edited at the library at college which was big mistake as I lost all my editing that I did. I had no other choose then to restart editing in my lessons. I had chance to finish editing in week four.
Week five was the most stressful week for me as I was trying to finish everything on time which I didn’t do. I was still editing on the last week and everything was just going wrong with my editing because I was still confused on how to use ‘’final cut pro’’. My audio was going wrong as I was trying to make it found very clear and also put it in the right places. As I was doing my editing I was also thinking about my over work that I had to do which wasn’t making my life easier for me to finish on time.
However on the last day of the unit, I put in so much effort in finishing of my editing. Which I did and I was so proud of myself for finishing off. I still had my evaluations to do which I did at home.
Overall, I am so proud of my progress I never thought I would be able to finish off but I am mostly proud that I didn’t give up. I thought the unit was really fun and enjoyable but I also thought It was really stressful but next time we have something similar to do I know that I am confident because I have did it before.
