Today was our last lesson for this unit. I did my evaluation and I did the QR code and I finalise sand went through my checklist.

Although I am sad of this unit ending, I found it enjoyable and I learnt new things about myself that I could work independently, edit a video on software, skilfully and professionally and organise my time and my work efficiently.

In this lesson, I found out that I got an S which stands for "Satisfactory". I was very worried about that as I do not want to fail this class but I had a talk with Delta and I feel comfortable to go to her whenever I have an issue. I want to do well in this class but the work I did today is making me feel comfortable enough to start properly editing my video for today. I still need to brush up my self evaluation with a few tweaks but other than that, I feel I am ready to fully edit my video and to hopefully complete it for next week.

Today was the first day back from the half term and I had a one to one with Delta who told me what stage I was at and what I needed to do next. I feel like I am comfortable in my paper work and I have made the few tweaks that I need to do.

In this lesson, we learnt how to edit with Jack and then took it in turns to edit a small part of a video. I am familiar with editing but it has never been my strongest point so I am quite anxious in case I completely mess up my video but I know that next week, I need to start editing my video.

Today, we went over our visual diaries and added documents to Blendspace to sort out our work neatly. This is good because it makes sure that my work is all done and all done to the best of my ability. It also helps to show me what I've done in the lessons so that I can keep on top of it.

After lunch, we split up from the class about half of us and we went into the TV studio. I have worked with a TV studio before but it was different when I was last here. It was my first time seeing it and it was really interesting. I have been in front of the screen before and thankfully I didn't take part in front of the camera but what I did do was work behind the scenes in the control room. I found that incredibly interesting because I have always wanted to work backstage in TV or film. It's my goal in life so to have a taste of it was awesome. I also sat and watched everything around me which I didn't mind. I learnt by watching.

I enjoyed it and hope that the next time we work in the studio, I'll be confident enough to work one of the cameras or be a director which is really what I want to be in life.

Today we began our pre-production. We finalised our storyboards. We started our proposal and downloaded all the other documents needed for our digital videos. We also made a plan of how we're going to shoot, what equipment we're going to need and how to book the cameras and we also made a location visit sheet and a production schedule. We also created a plan of how to ensure we create the video safely. A contingency plan is what we made. We learnt that it's important to make a pre-production plan so that when we start our project, we'll know what to do and know how to start confidently.

I don't need to use a camera so I'm not too worried about that but I will be doing a lot of editing.

The biggest challenge of today was Blendspace. I'm sure I can use it well on the computer but I think I need to work hard on using the iPads successfully.

Today, we began our storyboards. I am doing a types of shots tutorial videos and I am going to create a video using film clips. I have done my research and I know all types of shots. I need to complete my storyboard at home. I'm pretty confident about my storyboard and my video. I also need to prepare my digital storyboard for my tutorial video.

I found it difficult trying to decide how long the shot will last or how long the film clips will last in the shot.

Creating this storyboard will help me plan out every aspect of my tutorial video. I know what will happen in every shot and will know what to put in there.

Today, I started and completed a mind map of "Types of shots". This is what I am going to do my tutorial video on. I found out ways that I can do my tutorial video. I have gathered a lot of ideas and I feel confident in my ideas that I am going to do when I begin my work.

We also learnt about how to edit with Connor. I have had a hand with editing before but it was very good to refresh my memory and to re-see how to do it. I feel like with a bit more practice, I can do my editing with no problem.

We also learnt how to set up a camera. I didn't participate much but I have set up a tripod before. I just needed to refresh my memory on the whole task and I think I'll be able to in the future.

For this lesson I was absent but from what I gather, the class completed a third mood board and created a mind map for the tutorial video. I need to catch up on what I have missed for this lesson.

Today we were given our assignment sheet and we had to make mood boards. I learnt how to use padlet which I had been very confused about but I think I may have got the hang of it. I need to finalise my mood boards and complete them. We began these mood boards for our tutorial videos and to decide which one I want to make a tutorial video on.

I have chosen:

Types of shots - I want to learn the types of shots as they will be beneficial to my chosen career path.

Functions of a DSLR camera: I have done photography in the past and I am well equipped with how to use one and what the functions are.

Photoshop: I'm interested in Photoshop and would like to know more about it.
