week 5 – workshop

In my memories, this was an interesting class because we learned how to use a baby machine that is Sony MC50. Of course, before we studied how to use the Sony MC50 and went to record videos, Professor Louise Turley presented some professional knowledge about textual analysis and interviewing.

Louise mentioned a piece of paper of text we might meet in the future or made by ourselves. There are five points of that piece, firstly is the rest of text. Then is the genre of the text, the wider public context, significance-making the meaning and do not take public as zombie/died people. After that, Louise mentioned Gina Liano, actually I do not know who is she.

Now I am going to talk about the exercise in class. This time, I cooperated with Immie and Rosie, they are nice and pretty girls. To be honest, I am not used to present myself in front of camera, although I did it before, and I suggested that I want to be the interviewer. We chose a fire passage to record, because that is a quiet place we could find in short time. However the light in fire passage is so terrible and I found out this until I was editing the footages. To solve this problem, I used the AE to adjust the light, making the video more distinct and dynamic. This is very satisfied that I am used to use the Premier and AE, thanks to practices.

After this exercise, I realized that it is very important to choose a quiet and lighted place to record; the software can only repair a little.
