Assessment 1 #ALM102DC

In this video, I decided to do a brief introduction with basic information about myself. However, instead of focusing too much on formal information such as education, nationality, etc, I decided to share more about my hobbies and daily life images since I want my video to be easily approachable to the viewers. As my Youtube channel was created for studying purposes, my target audiences will be my classmates and lecturers, so that creating a comfortable and friendly feeling while watching is necessary.

In this video, I share activities that I love doing on a daily basis. I think this content can be attractive to a lot of young people since common interests can quickly connect people and draw their attention. However, the lacking of editing as well as filming skills makes it hard for me to deliver my content as well as I expected. The lack of video effect, transition and low variety of filming angle and background makes the video less attractive for the viewers. However, I believe that the content was comprehensively expressed in the video and the viewers can identify the message of the content. Moreover, since it’s my first time trying to use Adobe Premium Pro, there were a lot of difficulties and struggles. Therefore, I think that even though the final product is not good enough, I have learned a lot throughout the making process and these experiences can be extremely helpful for me later.

Before I started filming, I created my script and decided what I want to film so that it could connect to my content tightly. After that, I film all of my A-roll first and then moved to B-roll shots. Since B-roll shot requested more filming skills, so I have to try different filming angles for the same shot and choose the best one from them. My B-roll shots are based on my script. They allow viewers to have a closer look at what I am saying from A-roll shot. So even though I do not have good filming skill, I tried my best to bring out the best B-roll shots that I can

However, it can be easily recognised that there are two different backgrounds for my A-roll shots. Since I lost some A-roll footage without recognising so that I had to film again in a different location which was not a great idea for the video. Moreover, audio is also a problem in this video. I try to improve my audio quality by using the mic from the earphone. However, since I did not notice that my hair clashes into my mic when I’m moving. Therefore, there are some uncomfortable sounds in the video.
