New York final cut training

2P1 Alice - NEW YORK FINAL CUT EDITING TRAINING from Long Road Applied Media Diploma on Vimeo.

To do this exercise we had to go onto final cut and edit videos into the video bar, then we used the blender to make the videos fit into each other more, After that we used video edits to make the video look less boring and better to watch, but mainly just to get an understanding of how to edit videos, Then we went into garageband and made a short song which we then edited into the video to make it more interesting to watch.

Target audience

This is an exercise to let others know what they would use to get our attention if they wanted to target us, we collected images for what would represent us as a person. Target audiences are used for marketing a media product or brand because if its a certain product, for example alcohol or smoking its aimed at people over the age of 18 even though younger people do it, Also for things like twitter, its a social networking site used by mainly teenagers all over the world but also some adults do have it too, so its aimed at all sorts of people for all sorts of reasons e.g talking to friends, using it as a type of blog or even for business purposes.
For things like clothing shops, Topshop is aimed at girls who like to keep up with trends where as Topman is for boys who like to keep up with trends, Topshop is a more posh, smart but fashionable shop as appose to River Island which is also fashionable but is the more of the trendy grebbish look which is in all the magazines at the moment.

Find your tribe

This is another test we did to 'find our tribe' where you answer some questions and it pretty much tells you your stereotype, But i don't agree with the answer because i don't think I'm a 'bligger' because i don't fit into any stereotyped group e.g emo, indie etc because i like a mix of everything.

Are you normal?

This is a test that we did to find out whether we are normal or not, they asked really random questions which creeped me out a bit. I do agree with the answer i got because it described pretty much what Im like, although it claims Im normal and i don't think i am.

Brushes and Fonts

 This is the brushes exercise we did, I downloaded some brushes off the internet and then went on photoshop to do three different brush types.

And we also did the same sort of thing with fonts, we downloaded fonts off the internet and then did different examples of some to see which one we liked most and i used the top one for my logo.

Earth and eye exercise

This is the first task we did on photoshop, to help us get used to it and understand how to use it a bit, we had to get two pictures and cut out the background on the earth one of them then add it to the eye, to make it look like a contact lense.
I found this exercise quite easy because it was simple and it had been demonstrated a bit before, even though i've never used photoshop before.

Club Flyer

I named my club flyer Headlights because its the name of one of Drakes songs and sounded as if it would suite a night club. The reason i based my club around Drake is because he's one of the top Hip Hop/Rap artists around at the moment so if it was a real club it would attract a lot of customers.
During the lesson of making my flyer i edited a DJ into the background to make it look like the night club and then edited Drake into the front more and blurred the background a bit to make it fix into it more, I also edited a purple outline round Drake because the scene in the background has a lot of bright lights so it made Drake fit into it better.
I did the fonts white because it was the only colour that suited the flyer properly because black wasn't as clear to read and made it look dull.

Media Logo

This is my media logo, I downloaded this font because it was patterned and i liked it.
I used a butterfly because it was the only girly looking symbol there was which i wanted to use,
Even though it is plain, i used a crown to make it look less boring and i used a mix of different colours so it looked brighter.
