A2 Media Studies Advanced Production (Music Video) review questions

Media blog review questions

1. From my planning at the beginning of the A2 media course in preparation for the practical music work I found that some of the software that is required can be quite challenging, in particular Photoshop. I found Photoshop quite difficult to use as it is not very straightforward, to be able to move and delete things you have to go through transforms rather than simply being able to delete or click on them and move them. So in the end I just experimented with the software and it came out good in the end.

2. I did find it easier to use final cut this time around even though before I was quite experienced with final cut anyway but this time I was even more used to it so I could use it better and much more fluently, With it you can slow the film down, add colour filters over the top of the film, add effects to link different parts of the clips together, and you can also put different parts off the film together to change the sequence.

3. I don’t think our video was that close to original as we didn’t have enough people, the right props, location and also we couldn’t film the whole thing in the same style as the original due to restrictions on our available filming environment. With the DVD cover however I tried to make it original rather than making it look similar to the original.

4. I think I worked efficiently as a member of a team and in general I think everyone contributed effectively to form a good team effor
