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 helpful. This is especially due to the sections being short but effective, and I believe that Kennedy made it rather easy to understand. 

In conclusion, having LinkedIn learning is such a great way to learn new skills, and because they have different levels of learning, (beginner, immediate, advanced) it is suited for anyone. The only thing that is left is for me to make my documentary!

Reflection on the first year

As the first year has gone by, I would say that I've had many highs and lows from my Digital Media Foundations. I started the year off rather excited, especially since I did not have any expectations of what the course would be like. When I first heard that we were going to be writing on blogs, I was slightly nervous. The idea of having to publicly write down my experiences, along with my thoughts and feeling was slightly scary to me because I wouldn’t know who would be seeing my blogs. However, as time went by, I slowly but surely got used to writing in my blogs. I thoroughly enjoyed learning how to do new things, such as using Stop Motion, audacity, Premiere Pro, and more. I will admit to finding some of the software difficult to use, such as photoshop, and Illustrator. However, I am adamant to keep on learning how to use them, so that I can be able to create more projects. My favourite project/ assignment was probably using Stop Motion. Even though it took such a long time, I re...

Poster design

Feeling slightly uneasy about Adobe Illustrator, I still went ahead to use it to make my poster. It was going well, until it wasn’t. The Poster was supposed to be for our Lecturer’s nephew, who is a musician (who plays the classical guitar). He was having a concert in France, and wanted an advertisement for it (this being the poster).  My original idea was to have an image of a classical guitar, and both Charlie Richardson and the other half to his duo Anne-Lise Vaumoron in the guitar with details of the event around it. I had decided to use elements of Tony Harmer's video to help with my idea. However, I found it very difficult to create and ended up having to start again several times. By the fifth time, I had decided to give up my original idea. Unfortunately, I came to the decision to leave out the picture of Richardson and Anne-Lise. To be completely honest, I was not the biggest fan of the photo options we were given for the poster, so I wasn’t too disappointed. In the end, m...

Another trip to a museum

I wanted to visit two museums after the classes I had for the past couple of weeks. The first museum I went to was the Saatchi gallery. Seeing as I went there rather spontaneously, I was not able to go to any of the private exhibitions. However, they did have one free exhibition, named Studio: Response. It was an exhibition collaborating with three artists, Luke Hannam, Tom Norris and Luke Routledge.  Luke Routledge did the sculptures, Tom Norris created the ceramic vases and Luke Hannam painted the canvas art. My favourite was the art done by Luke Hannam, especially since it was painted on canvas, which is something I had never seen before in a gallery. Seeing the various patterns, colours and textures that the artists had used were rather fascinating to me, and I thought the exhibition was quite nice. To be completely honest, I'm not entirely sure what the purpose of the exhibition was, but nevertheless, I found the art to be interesting, and I will definitely look further into t...
