I was happy with how the opening shot worked out. Initially I wasn’t sure if it would work as intended but it really helped to set the scene with what my interview was about and I think it was successful in introducing the audience to the theme and tone of the interview. I think another successful […]

Week 8: Initiative
I recently went and saw Guardians of the Galaxy vol. 2 which was very funny and I really enjoyed it. This franchise, when combined with the Avengers, is another film series for fans where they can watch all of the films, and there is a lot, in order and patiently await until the next one. […]
Week 8: Workshop
In today’s workshop we were able to watch other people’s interviews and give feedback. The questions I asked were: Is the music too loud in parts? Does it flow? Does the text work? Do the pictures work with the video? I was worried about the music being too loud in some parts as it gets […]

Week 7: Interview Filming

Today in the workshop we showed our edited version of the interview exercise that we did last week. Again we were able to give and receive feedback. It was interesting to see edits from people who were from the same group and how they approached it differently. Some feedback that I received was that I […]
