In this week’s workshop, we shared our final cut (or nearly final cut) within our groups. However this time we didn’t just give each other feedbacks, we also shared our experience making this video. For example where did we find the background music, what kind of font did we use? One of our group members used Photoshop to create a cloud looking font which looking absolutely amazing, and I never even thought about using Photoshop to do a text and insert it into the video as a picture.

This experience reminded me the importance of learning from others. By looking at other people’s work you can gain a lot more extra knowledge and use that as an inspiration to create your own thing. If you always work alone the inspiration and ideas maybe limited. Take a look at others’ work, gain more information, and look at things in different perspectives. All of these will be helpful when you feel like running out of ideas.

Learn from others and gain more knowledge.
