Welcome Back!

     Hello everyone, its me Stephanie and i'm super excited to announce that I will be continuing my journey in A-Level Media Studies. I am super excited to start this year and I am looking forward to the films and ideas I have floating around in my head. I have so many things to look forward to this year such as creating my very own postcard and website which i'm so stoked to do. I am also looking forward to work on and improve my editing skills to be even better than it was last year. Today on our Teams meeting for the class we already started to learn about the final task of this class and I have so many stories and ideas that I want to share, so I already started narrowing down my movie idea. I can't wait to start working with my camera again and actually produce a longer film that has a beginning, middle, and end. I really want to learn in depth about the advertising and social media aspect of this class as it was so interesting to see all the examples from last year's class that my teachers provided. I want to be able to take what I learned from this class and hopefully use it for the future. To be honest, I am nervous for what this year has to bring due to the pandemic and everything being online, so I hope that there isn't much stress and problems that come out. Since this is my senior year of high school, I want to have fun in this class and focus on creating the best short film while having fun and enjoying the process to make it. 

    Reflecting back from last year I definitely am nervous about editing and filming the short film. I never really enjoyed editing my films because my group members last year would leave it to the last day and put it all on me to do, even though I would tell to start earlier. I want to plan ahead and use the time to edit to focus on myself and the film, I also want to edit earlier so I can gain feedback from friends and family and see where it needs to be fixed. I plan to do many research on different editing software's that are easy and manageable than the one I have been using. I am honestly nervous about the filming process as well because of the pandemic and I don't know whether it comes time to film will things get better or worse. I am going to make sure and discuss with my family about the people that I want to have in my film and ask  whether its okay with them if we can film together. If my parents do not agree, I will have to make use of my sister and family yo be in the film. I just have a feeling that this will be the best year and since everything is online I can use this time to learn more about technology and learn about a bunch of new apps and programs. This year will be a lot of work but it will be rewarding and fun. I am extremely excited and can't wait to share with you all that I have to offer this year in A-Level Media Studies.



This is Stephanie signing off!
