Assessment item 4 – Original content: Video
A small video showing some of the struggles I face when I try to study at home.
There are some many distractions :'(
REFLECTION
Creating a video was really time-consuming, more so than the podcast. Coming up with an idea and creating the content wasn’t too difficult, but getting the angles and shots just right was frustrating. The whole video was shot using my Samsung Galaxy 10. Gathering all the little clips together and putting into sequence was tricky as I had to remember what scene started where. Creating my own Youtube channel was much easier than expected. The editing software I used was iMovie as I have a Macbook and it comes with the laptop. I learnt from the podcast that finding sounds and music is very time-consuming, so all the sound effects were made and recorded by me, it helped to save time plus it was very easy to do. The music came from Bensound and made it easy to work out what was Creative Commons for videos and what was free to download. The image I used for the thumbnail for the video was from Pixabay. Overall I enjoyed creating the video but I could use practice with holding a camera steady.
