Video show reel

Here is my completed video show reel showcasing some of the work that I have produced during my studies. It features multiple music videos that I have created since 2017 as well as one side-scroller game I made in first year to show that I have skills in multiple areas. The show reel is edited to an instrumental version of Perfect Places by Lorde. I think this song works quite well as it sounds very uplifting, modern, and has simple chords which are easy to edit to.  I tried to make sure I had some visual matches such as where one girl in one of my videos flips her hair, it cuts to another shot of another girl flipping her hair in a different scene, just to flow nicely for the audience. Additionally, at one moment the music stops entirely for a second, before the beat drops, and at this moment I made sure there was no image on screen at all. This creates interest and excitement in my piece as the audience anticipates the next moment in the video. Here is the final result:  htt...

The Handmaid's Tale reflection

I have really enjoyed this part of the module for a number of reasons. It's really nice to have the opportunity to actually create something I can use for my portfolio by the time I graduate, and overall I think I made a good piece of work that I am personally quite proud of. I think I successfully captured the style of the existing ENO posters whilst still making something unique that they haven't already done before. I have experience using Adobe Illustrator from my time in college, but it's been a little while since I've created something from scratch, and making the mock-ups in Photoshop was a nice touch, so it was great to revisit these skills. It was really useful having all of the requirements and measurements set out for us. I like knowing exactly what is expected from me, so having a list of the exact measurements, resolution and format, as well as reference material made the process of making these designs an enjoyable and stress-free experience. I didn't ...

End of the lemon

Since we are reaching the end of this module, I thought I would do a final post to summarise my findings with the lemon project. To start with, I am very satisfied with the platform I used to create my content on. Had I used a social media platform like Instagram or Twitter to gain attention, I think I would have struggled since it is quite hard to get followers and likes without following loads of people or engaging with popular content creators. By using TikTok, I was able to effortlessly gain attention simply by posting at peak times regularly.  Because of the algorithm on TikTok which enables you to get views and likes and followers simply by posting regular and consistent content, using hashtags becomes redundant as a way of getting attention. Whilst it wouldn't hurt to include them so my videos would appear with the other amazing lemon content on TikTok, I didn't feel it necessary to gain small success on the platform. TikTok encourages this "anybody can do it" ...
