Post 3 Skills

Post 3 Skills:


Skills Table:


For the second part of this task we created a table to record key skills that we learnt and used in our A-S project we presented it onto a poster . We put our skills into four different headings which were:


- Digital Technology
- Research & Planning
- Media Text Conventions
- Post Productions


We then classified skills into these headings then broke them down into the following skills:


- Cognitive Skills
- Technical Skills
- Interpersonal Skills


After we had finished the poster we had to do a voice over and explain the skills we had put into each section. I read the Post-Production section.


Here is our Table and voice over:









In class we was assigned the task of setting ourselfs 5 targets we want to achieve by the end of next year. These are the 5 targets I want to achieve:

1. The first target I want to achieve is to successfully learn how to use the edit suite. This is because in the preliminary task and the main task at A-S level I struggled to understand everything in there and was continuously asking for help. At A2 level I want to be able to get straight on with my editing and not having to ask for help. A way in which I could get better in the edit suite and using the software could be to film short clips then practise editing in the edit suite to get experience and to understand what I’m doing.

2. The second target I want to achieve is to be more organised with my work and keep my blog up to date. This is because at some stages I fell heavily behind on the work and was often playing catch up to get up to date with the work. This time around I want to make sure my blog is up to date at the time it should be. I can do this by doing weekly checks to make sure my blog posts are all on there according to the work we should of done and any unfinished work will be done that week.

3. Another target I wish to achieve is to be able to understand key media terms and equipment. This includes digital equipment, filming techniques, rules of filming, key terms (e.g. jibbing and panning) and vital equipment. Ways in which I will be able to understand these key terms and equipment is to practise with them and make sure I understand each and everyone.


4. The fourth target I wish to achieve is to create a well finished short film that appeals to our target audience. Ways I want to achieve this is by well plaining out our film and know exactly what we are doing before we go to film. Also I want to be alert to when we come to edit so we can edit in time and make sure we have enough time for the evaluation tasks.


5. The final target I wish to achieve is to be able to meet all deadlines and make sure my work is up to date. I wish to achieve this by spending more time on independent study outside lesson time and making sure all my work is up to date so I am ready to move onto my next task.
