Post 3-Skills

Skills Table

In our lesson we were given the task to create a skills table which would be describing and evaluating the skills we had developed over year 12. We looked at 5 different areas which were, digital technology, creativity, research and planning, post production and finally using conventions from real media texts. We then looked at the three different ways in which we had used the skills, these where, Technical, Interpersonal, Cognitive and Creativity. I think that after completing the two opening sequences from the course last year, as a group we are all confidant in the skills we have learnt and putting them into action when we produce our short film this year.




Targets
1. To stick to all deadlines set by both my teachers and fellow class mates whom i am working with. This i feel will help with my organisation and my overall project. When producing my last blog i feel behind on a few deadlines and i feel by doing this it effected other parts of my blog, this time around i would like to be more organised.


2. To improve my understanding of technology and try to take a more hands on role within the group. I feel i need to improve on my understanding of the editing suit and also the use of camera when recording footage. I feel if i improve on this i can then improve the overall standard of my project. I feel a high level of technological knowledge is needed in media and for this reason i am going to try my hardest to get my skills to the highest level possible.



3. To keep up the presentation of my blog and include everything on it that can be included. I feel i did not include everything i should have on my last blog and with this one i want to fully utilize the opportunity's i am given. As a blog is very visual i feel i need to include many diagrams and visual representations of what i have learnt, not mealy text.



 

4. I intend to use all the software to its full potential in order to produce the best project possible. I am going to learn how to use photo shop correctly to produce a good quality postcard that could be distributed for our short film. To do this I will first make a practice postcard using photo shop so that i can become familiar with the different settings and find the best techniques to use when creating my final postcard. I have chosen to improve upon using photo shop as i have never used the programme before so don't have any previous knowledge about it and also feel it could play a vital role in the advertising scheme.


5.For my A2 course i want to make sure that i stay organised throughout, making sure i don't fall behind with any tasks or work given to me. I think this is a very important skill that you need in producing films to make sure you are staying on top of the work load and keep organised. To do this i will make sure that i write up notes, keep all my documents in neat folder and work closely with my group to keep all joint documents together. This means that when writing up production and post production reports i will be able to write in great detail and i wont forget any important details.
