Finally last week, so far I finished all the shooting and editing in Lightroom so it comes to edit in Premiere. I tried different editing ways to tell the story and my friend helped me to choose the best one. I also use some radio online without copyright and add it in the video. It’s the easiest way for the audience to understand the whole story. I don’t want to make it obscure and boring. I want to let people release their feelings while watching this film.
From this project, I gain more about the experience and knowledge of photography. And from pre-production work and production work, I am actually more comfortable and organised with the process. It’s important to take good photographs but more essential to get more ideas from the research, get more inspiration. Overall, from the course I learnt much about the technique of photography and got to know the photography and narrative which I had shown what I learned according to the film.
I am satisfied with what I came up with but it also leaves me some space to improve that. It won’t be true if I say it was not difficult to do that. Even so far I am not that professional. I need to practice more and get more experience to be professional. I also found out shooting raw is a good way for the edit. That leaves enough space for colour correction.
Above all, I learned a lot from both projects and online courses thanks to Brian. From the beginning, struggling with topics, content, editing and also some other production work, I encouraged myself to do risks, to see what I could do. I will pay more attention to refining lens language and gain more professional camera work. To see more artists’ work that helps me to improve my art appreciation ability. Photography is an artistic communication media and I will find myself a way to get connection to the audience.
