Nominated

Coming to the end of our post production module every student was asked to nominate a piece of their best work and showcase their finest editing skills. I decided to nominate my experimental for this task as I believe it was my best piece of editing to date. As mentioned in the experimental post earlier the footage was filmed from the making of a promotion video for company 'Ninebot'. Being able to the first people hands on and film the product itself was an amazing experience.

I feel this is my best edited piece of work this year as I've added a certain type of feel and style to it to make it come to life, we could say it's an uplifting one due to the use of music within it. All shots were filmed hand held which again tested me to my limit as it all had to be perfect not only for myself but the viewers itself.

Experimental

And so it comes down to this our last practice assessment for avid, aim is to create a short video where it is totally experimental. We obviously had the option to choose what aspects we wanted to play around with being the narrative, effects, avid tools, techniques behind editing and the themes/structures. The task was to be completed by every individual, I decided to go with some footage which I recorded over the holidays. A promotion of 'Ninebot' which is a self balancing short walking robot. Being an experimental task I was able to enjoy myself whilst editing by using the reverse speed duration and effects to make my video come to life and engage the audience within it.

Propaganda

In production groups of 3/4 people we was required to film and edit a 5 minute propaganda film. So the basic idea was to incorporate some sort of message across and to promote bigotry on the basis of race, religion, culture and gender. I based my film on a boxer, reason being I was able to show the audience about how the young generation can escape violence and gang culture through the power of boxing.

I particularly enjoyed filming this because not only do I take up the sport myself I was able to film AJ one of the students at repton and his journey over the four years of his training, he was able to give us an indepth view on his training and how it got him out of it.

BVE Exhibition

BVE was an amazing experience to go to, I had so much fun exploring the exhibition because not only did it feature over 250 of the leading manufacturers, distributors and resellers of professional production and broadcast equipment and systems, but it covered everything from accessories of a camera to 360 workflow solutions. BVE was well how can we put it an unforgettable moment? Being the most essential broadcasting and production technology event made it extra special because I have never actually been to an exhibit before so it was a good experience overall to get hands on with the different/various types of cameras I witnessed before me.
