Video Editing Practice Blog Reflection

 Video Editing Practice Blog Reflection

The process of learning how to use the adobe software was a bit long but helpful. The videos we watched showed us step by step how to create a clip and how to edit everything together, it was tedious but worth it as it made it easier to navigate adobe premium software. Hence, I would say my learning experience was good and everything was fairly simple.

Creating the clip was a whole new experience for me, because I'd never done anything like that before which made the process a little bit stressful. Before I could even start editing I had to watch almost all of the clips to be able to sort and pick out the clips I liked best. Then once I did that I was able to edit them together and pick and add different sounds until I reached my goal. Overall my experience was well I would say I need more practice because some parts were frustrating.

Some challenges I faced throughout the process of making the video were editing problems because some times I would try to add a clip in the middle of two clips I already had, and it would delete my work or mess up sound in my work ruining my process and making me start again. Also some successes that I am proud of is the way it turned out. To me it wasn't perfect but it was still good for my first time. And also there are some transitions in between clips which I am also proud of because they were pretty smooth transitions instead of harsh transitions.

I learned that video editing isn't as easy as it seems and that there is a lot of thought and work put behind every scene or video to make everything look cohesive. I also learned how to use adobe premium, I am no expert but at least I know the basic steps, how to edit video and sound together, and hoe to add sitting or text. in a clip. In all, I learned a lot during this assignment/practice.

Some important takeaways that I will try to apply before I start is to watch all the videos thoroughly because sometimes I miss parts that I wanted to apply and adding them in can be annoying and frustrating. I will also try to be more organized because I would get an idea and skip ahead to that pat instead of focusing on the task at hand.

This will help with my portfolio assignment since I am planning to do the  2 minute movie entrance. So these skills will come in handy because when it is time to start editing my clips together and adding in any sound or video I will have a general knowledge to be able to bring my vision to life.
