My First Thoughts

As I am a practical person I am very excited to begin creating my coursework! I have filmed and edited several videos before and so am feeling quite confident about the task! I have worked with businesses that are local to me to film and edit promotional videos for them, I have also previously created wedding videos for people. I took BTEC media in years 9, 10 and 11 at school and during the course I made a horror trailer with my class group as my coursework. It was a great way to be introduced to the process of making a short piece of film; I learnt a lot about all aspects of pre-production, production and post-production. I learnt how to maneuver a camera, and edit the footage I had filmed. 
I haven't ever created a fictional video alone, and therefore I am mostly looking forward to being able to be more creative with what I make. I hope to learn how to direct and work with others involved, such as the actors, and to get better at telling a story. 
I am more nervous about creating the magazine front cover as Photoshop is definitely not a strong point for me, I hope that I can learn how to use it and create an aesthetic front cover. 

We made a short podcast talking about our initial thoughts:
