A day in London


https://youtu.be/O8TRe9opgXA









Being inspired by the first documentary I had made, I decided to film another one. This time, I wanted to film a day out in London, and the type of things I got up to when I was not at uni. On this particular day, I went out with a friend of mine, and we went around central London. The video starts off with me walking up the stairs, followed by the train arriving, which takes me to my main destination. After that, since it was the afternoon, I had lunch, and then we went to a marketplace, followed by a cafe to study. At times I felt a bit nervous to film since central London is a busy place and I did not want to accidentally film someone that would have a problem with being filmed. However, I did have a friend with me, so it gave me a bit of confidence.  The documentary ends with me going home the same way I arrived, on the train.

 I had also used Adobe Premiere Pro to edit this documentary. Just like the first video, I enjoyed making this documentary, and I could see myself making more in the future. 

As for improvement, the next time I make a video in this style, I will add the location of where I am, so that people can connect to the video, and know where in London I went to. A personal improvement would be to work on making the audio sound more smooth- in the sense of it not ending abruptly. Other than that, I believe that if I keep on practicing making these types of videos, I will be able to explore other ways to edit and make my videos even better.

LinkedIn learning(using Adobe Premier)

In order for me to have been able to make my documentary, I had to know how I was going to put it together. And for me to put it together, I had to use software (this particular one being Adobe Premier). And who was going to help me? None other than LinkedIn learning! It was recommended to use LinkedIn learning as a way to learn how to use software such as Photoshop, Adobe Premiere, and more.  The specific video I watched was learning Premiere pro, by Ashley Kennedy. The video is sectioned into various parts, so if the viewer doesn't want to watch the whole video, they could automatically watch the part of the video they need to know how to use the editing app. The first video was 94 minutes, and the second was over seven hours. To be completely honest, the first video was all I really needed to watch, but if I wanted to know about anything in detail, such as editing in music, I would watch the second video. As someone who has not used Premiere Pro before, I found the videos very h...
