LO2 Be able to scope and plan content for a personal media profile

The first product I created during my Digital Media course was a music magazine featuring small rappers in my town, the entire magazine was designed by me. The magazine was NAR magazine meaning New Age Rappers I used my creative skills to design the front cover I used my skills to see what colours would fit with each other and compliment one another I used apps such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to help me create my designs I also went online to find custom fonts to make the magazine look far better I used the website DaFont for these custom fonts. I had researched different magazine to see how they created their front covers I looked at magazines such as NME XXL I used conventions from their products and applied them to mine. I had taken multiple images in the same style that XXL and NME used.

This picture shows the magazine cover I had created

Another project that I worked on was creating a music video.

Underneath this is the newest version of the music video that we improved upon during post production. After listening to feedback me and the team decided to look back at our work and fix a lot of the issues that occurred within the last draft. One of which was the green screen and special effects that we used. In this newest version we have altered them slightly so that they better fit the theme of the track, plus they no longer look glitchy and unprofessional. We also added a lot more cuts and shortened some scenes, as we felt that they we way too long and uninteresting. With these patches implemented we believe that our product has now improved tremendously and we feel as if our skills in creating a music video have been increased by a huge amount.

In one of mine units I was tasked in creating a short film and because of this we had to learn how to use DLSR cameras and how to use different sets of equipment we also had to learn how to take different shots types and how to use different mise-en-scene conventions

This is the final version of our product, including edits, special effects, and sound effects throughout the whole product. In this we all worked together to fit together each scene and implement other sounds and editing techniques to create a professional product. Our product is similar to other parody movies such as the Scary movie franchise, this is because we make fun of many different things featured in horror, thriller, and drama films.

These are examples of my work in Unit 18, which we did alongside unit 5 (the short film unit). In this we had to show off how we learnt how to use the cameras and what we had learnt from researching them, we would then also incorporate this work into our unit 5 short film.

In unit 4 I created a website for my Magazine that I created in unit 3
