Transition Task Evaluation

1) What did you find the most challenging and why?

 I found editing the music video and getting the timing correct the most challenging. This was especially difficult as my group did not have the correct facilities prepared (e.g. the mp3) so we found lining the clips up with the track very challenging and time consuming. Eventually we managed to do it to an acceptable standard that we were all pleased with. 

2) What will you do differently when you make your A2 product next year?

In order to avoid the situation of not having the equipment in time and make everything run more smoothly when creating my next music video I will make sure to be prepared and organised; however I will not need to rely on other group members which will make things easier as I can trust myself to bring in the correct files and equipment.

3) How has doing this task helped you and why? What have you taken away from this experience?

I have realised how time consuming editing the video is and how difficult of a task it is when you try editing without the mp3 track. I also noticed the importance of using a tripod and getting the correct framing as it makes the final product look more professional.

4) How successful was your product? Why do you think it was successful or unsuccessful?

I think my product was successful. The performer was good and it looked very similar to the original video. The lip syncing matched with the song perfectly and looked seamless. 

5) How do you feel about developing to A2 level now you have completed this task?

I feel more confident about progressing to A2 as I have more of an understanding of time management and how I need to prepare in order to make the creation of my music video run as smoothly as possible.

6) What do you like most/least about your final product?

 I like the editing the most as it matches up with the original video. I dislike the jump near the beginning of the video which I did not have enough time to re-film.
