What I found particularly interesting about this weeks workshop was the Kuleshov effect. As, we’re currently taking a closer look at editing techniques, I am beginning to understand the power that editing has in conveying meaning and bettering the product all together.
As we get closer to presenting the Self Portrait 2.0, the issue in my mind is solely editing. At this point in time, I only have an idea of what I wanted to convey in this assessment and no footage or media which should be more of a priority, however, what’s really bothering me is how to incorporate still images into the video without compromising flow. It’s been suggested to me to just use crossfades between image and video, however, I still think that, unless it’s stop motion, it can disrupt the flow.

I think that, once I get down to filming and shooting what I need, I need to think critically about how to edit them seamlessly in without this minuscule part of the assessment bothering me.
