Evaluation

Evaluating my final video; there are certain things that I think I could do better and that I could improve on; for example, not to leave editing my video so last minute.

What I thought was good:

I made various introductions to my video profile showing off different editing styles and also structuring my video. I personally liked the colour correction as it levelled out the various colours and made it look more professional. I also like my music choice as it gives out chill vibes and has no speech so the audience focuses more on my voice. I used a variety of shots and angles making the video look more interesting ranging from long shots to extreme close-ups. In the editing I also synced the transitions with the music to make the edit flow better and look more aesthetically pleasing.

What I thought needs improving:

However, my audio was a bit too heavy on reverb as I did not know the settings too well as its my first time using it; I used reverb as the original audio quality was quite bad and it had a lot of background noise in it.

Also some of the shots that I took were not Stable-I could have used a tripod to make it more stable. Some of the shots were badly lit and noise detected on the dark parts of the video.

One thing I would like to change in my filming is the interview as I did not check the footage until after I recorded; the recording was data glitched and showed a lot of tear in the video and ruined the quality of me and also the green screen, that’s why u can see a green glow around me on the interview part of my video; This also leads to another thing I would not do in future projects, that is to not leave things so last minute and rush everything as it ruins the whole quality of my work. I know I can do better but I rushed it and edited everything in one day; If I had more time the video would be up to standards and higher quality in structure and better transitions.

I changed some things from my script and shot list and improvised as I didn’t like what it looked like on screen.

Conclusion:

Overall I still like the outcome of my video as everything pretty much flows together but In future I should give me self more time and not rush things last minute as I know I can come out with a better quality video. Also I would want to get a camera and record things myself and not rely on other people as it did not give me the freedom of where to go and shoot.
