Evaluation of Editing Development Across Course

Efficiency:

If I'm being honest, my efficiency during the start of the course was very poor. i was not leaving enough time to complete tasks and what needed to be done was all over the place. This was a standard i did not find acceptable, to stop this from happening in future modules i would create Gantt charts to allow me to be on top of thing within my projects. However, with this in my mind i still believe i was quite poor when it came around the end i was i will end up be more efficient with my planning instead of editing which ultimately to more problems. This change drastically when it came  down to the music video module as this is the only module that i don't feel as if it was rushed./ other than this i only finished to modules on time.

Organisation:

My organisation was poor as i believe that if i was more organised i could have produced more work for my modules a better standard, my organisation of clips and footage was kept on a hard drive with different folders for different pieces of work to allow me to take these clips on the go. I don't think its necessary naming individual clips, however i did delete clips out of the hard drive once they've been used to a certain amount. i would often refer back to the mark scheme as a checklist to see what needs to be done and what I've done already, which allowed me to be quite organised in itself. In addition, i wish i discovered more organisational tactics for my work to allow my work to be more strong

Planning :

During my planning process, i used storyboards to plan and to refer to later for when i would eventually move on to the editing process of my modules. This was very effective as it helped me keep a clear viewpoint for what needed to be done in my editing. i did a lot of research on media that's in the same vain to direct me in the proper direction. An example of this would be my analysis of the code and conventions of different promotional videos to aid my promotional video, whilst also gaining inspiration to make a promotional video of my own.


Editing Abilities:


My editing as a whole improved exponentially as the course progressed. if I'm being honest my editing as a whole was already at a decent level however I feel as if I've become more aware of how to use editing as a tool to convey emotions and things in the same vein.  this can be clearly be seen in the music video I created where in certain parts of the video quick jump cuts are used to convey the in your face nature of the video. I developed different techniques and skills that I can call my own stylistic techniques that can be seen in future videos that I produce. 

Overall:

overall as i progressed i believe my editing skills have been the one aspect of my creative arsenal that has improved the most compared to the others. my editing has seen growth if you were to compare how it was at the start of the course. i learned new techniques and developed ones i already have. for example in my music video, the use of montages in the video allowed the video to be more effective for an audience and convey the music video properly and efficiently. however my planning and efficiency had cracks in it which i believe only improved slightly. i still believe that i can do things to improve it in the future like be on top of things and not allow things to fall behind in schedule. a way to improve i belive will be keeping a diary of things i need to do and sometimes doing things before they even need to be done to allow more room for improvement to be had. my organisation skills was also poor. i did things such as keep things in hardrives so I'm able to keep things with me on the go and do things when I'm out however i believe there's still roo for improvement once again. if i was to go back and the course again the things i would differently will be; be more diligent with more work and make sure stuff is done when is needed to be done and not wait till last minute to complete said things

Research Into The Development of Editing

Early Editing  In the present day, editing in film has various purposes: it aids in the telling of a storey, it creates a mood or atmosphere, and it contributes to the overall success of a film or video. Short films used to be one lengthy, static shot in the beginning. Early filmmakers were afraid of combining multiple shots of different items taken from different perspectives and locations because they feared it would confuse an audience. In the early 1900s, the first films with some type of editing were made. Edwin S. Porter's film "The Great Train Robbery," which he wrote, directed, and produced, is a significant milestone in editing technique. Griffiths, Eisenstein, and Kuleshov are among the most well-known film experimenters. D. W. Griffiths is regarded as the founder of narrative cinema; he pioneered techniques such as parallel editing, which allowed him to push his films to new heights of intricacy. Griffith's films were highly valued by Soviet directors such ...

Evaluation of Development of Practical Skills Across Course

I feel I have been able to gain a range of practical skills during this year, which will assist me when I work in a professional atmosphere. I have been able to provide evidence of communication with my clients, completion of health and safety protocols, setting up lighting and camera equipment to a client-acceptable standard, completion of promotional work to a client-acceptable standard, completion of all pre-production and idea generating work to a client-acceptable standard, and I have also justified my design methods across all platforms. Communicating with a client  When I complete units that include the completion of work for a customer, I took care of the unit as if I were in a professional setting. whether i was successful at this is up for debate as some things i did well and some things didn't do too well. for example, i was able to provide my client my clear vision and schedule of what I wanted to create whilst showing the procedures i will have to take to make things p...
