Practice in class

Project 2A:


We need team members to collaborate and make our own micro film clips modeled after the film.
We shot each scene many times, and I think this experience was very valuable to me in order to improve. I was tired, but I learned a lot.

Project 2B:
Because our task is to shoot our own short video Vlog, so when I was thinking about the theme, I opened my photo album and found the daily activities I recorded in high school. I was immediately immersed in memories. That time was very meaningful for me, because I was in training at that time, and we were also in the storm of COVID-19. So that time for me was difficult and hard, but also unforgettable. This is the reason why I finally decided to edit this topic, I want to record it, not only as homework, but also as a record of my youth.


REFLECTION
In recent weeks, I've gained a comprehensive understanding of film production, including the roles and responsibilities of various team members like the producer, director, and cinematographer. I've also explored the technical aspects of filmmaking, such as color correction and grading using Adobe Premiere Pro, focusing on adjusting white balance, exposure, and saturation to achieve consistent visual styles.

Additionally, I've worked on editing production shoots, experimenting with non-linear editing techniques and syncing audio with video. This practical experience has been complemented by preparing storyboards for social media videos, emphasizing creative planning and execution in visual storytelling.
