Adobe Premier Effects and Editing
This short presentation displays my progress of using Adobe Premier and how I have experimented in using effects for my music video.Premier become an easy software to work with once you know where everything is and how it can be used. There are skills I have learnt through trail and error or watching tutorials. I have self taught myself on how to use this software, showing my determination of trying to do new things and facing challenges.Skills such as editing, by using tools such as 'razor', adding effects for shaky clips or to increase or decrease the speed of a clip and adjusting levels of brightness, contrast and filtering with colours.
Postmodernism
In media, I have gained a wide variety of skills ranging from time management to using industrial soft wares. Media is not only about creating texts, but there is also theory behind everything, hence why media is a big topic to learn. With the theory side of media studies, I am learning about postmodernism. This topic is very intriguing as postmodern is everywhere, it is not only in the media industry but in music, fashion, film and many more industries. Many people have different views on the certain topic, which makes me more interested in learning postmodernism and how it's affected the society as a whole. Currently, I am focsuing on the film indusrty and how movies such as Scream, Blade Runner, The Matrix and recent released movies such as The Lego Movie and Lucy are all postmodern is some way. I will be also looking at the television and the video game industry to see how postmodernism can be evidently everywhere.

Current Project - Music Video
Currently in Media studies, I am working on a music video, in which I'm in the stage of editing and improving to complete it as a final draft.
In this project, I used a new software, Adobe Premiere where I wasn't familiar with, however practicing in creating videos and editing helped me to be more confident.
Similar to AS Media, research and planning had to be completed first to support my ideas and help me progress them. The research and planning tasks were more intense and had to be very specific.
The planning tasks in specific gave me a clear indication on how the industry would approach in making a music video alongside planning shoots and signing official documents.
Draft Music Video
Another blog was created to display my work towards the research and planning aspect of the unit, as well as extra work such as behind the scenes and production logs to view my progress throughout the project.
There was a lot of skills required into researching, planning and editing, hence why a lot of drafts are needed until the final completed video. Skills for the editing include; understanding the frames and how the footage needs to placed, adding filter, adjusting the brightness and contrast volumes.
Alongside the production of a music video, the brief also instructs me to create two out of three ancillary tasks to support with the main coursework. I chose to create a digipak and magazine album advert, to ensure that there is a flow in the theme of 'music'. The digipak and magazine advert are also in the drafting stage and are made using Indesign.
Below are images of my draft digipak and magazine advert.

'Melody'
Melody is a completed music magazine I produced in AS-Level Media Studies. Before I got to create the basic magazine layout, I had to conduct plenty of research to support the brief given and for my ideas. The next step included intense planning and drafting tasks. Ranging from planning photoshoots to posting my development of my magazine. Every week, I posted a production log where I wrote about what I did in lesson, what problems I encountered and how I overcame them.
All tasks are evidently showcased in a blog dedicated to this unit - g321geetagohil.blogspot.co.uk/.
This project portrays a range of skills immensely improved from GCSE to A-Level. Skills such as editing by using new softwares (InDesign), photography, planning with good organisational, and timekeeping skills.
Presentation was an important aspect to this project, in order to display more work formally on the blog using websites such as Prezi, Voki and Slideshare.
I had to evaluate my magazine with the 7 questions given from the exam board. I decided to take the evaluation approach differently instead of writing essay and posting them on the blog as a plain text. I decided to make the evaluation answers into a magazine format, which not only would be another formal presentation of the work but the whole project itself would look consistent.
