Through the collaborative videography experience of filming the Salsa flash mob, I met a fellow videographer with more commercial experience, Amelia Sutcliffe. Before meeting in person, I made contact with her through email and LinkedIn – I think doing this helps to build a lasting professional relationship with people, in the same way that I…… Continue reading Amelia Sutcliffe on LinkedIn | Connecting with a fellow videographer.

Exhibition Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aOrZGTVySHA&t=2s There was initially no specific use outlined to us for the footage captured at the Human Aquarium launch, other than video documentation of the event. So for the most part of this film I took on the role of director, even though I would consider the client to be Yorkshire Life Aquatic. From the…… Continue reading Exhibition Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
Conscious Creatives Social Media
I undertook the responsibility of reviving the Conscious Creatives Instagram account, as a key part of my contribution to the society has been facilitating communication. I am also now an admin on the Facebook group, and have used it to organise regular meetings. It is surprisingly time consuming to maintain an active Instagram account, let…… Continue reading Conscious Creatives Social Media
Summat Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RrlrSOLblhY&t=1s I really feel that this final outcome shows an accumulation of technical improvements, learnt from less successful outcomes produced up to this point and advice from my specialist tutor meetings. In particular: Colour balance & continuity Unlike the Human Aquarium Event Film, I dedicated more time on adjusting the tint and temperature of each…… Continue reading Summat Event Film | Reviewing final outcome…
Grow Wild Exhibition | Event Photography
I think these photos successfully document the atmosphere and content of the Grow Wild exhibition. However, technical areas for improvement/further study are: White Balance; there were contrasting temperatures of light coming from various sources. I think this makes the photos unusual and represents the atmospheric lighting of the space. However, it was difficult to judge…… Continue reading Grow Wild Exhibition | Event Photography
Grow Wild UK | Directing a funding application
This was my first time leading the process of submitting a video application for project funding. The first step was researching exactly what they were looking for and relaying this to the group: We had already considered the focus on wildflowers and fungi when curating the Grow Wild Exhibition, but the task was to communicate…… Continue reading Grow Wild UK | Directing a funding application
Sound Blending in Premiere Pro
One of the issues with my film documenting the Thrive exhibition was sound blending. The audio levels were inconsistent and there was a noticeable ‘audio pop’ with each cut in the audio. Here I’ve watched some tutorials to see try to create smoother transitions in the audio sequence. I have attempted using Premiere Pro audio…… Continue reading Sound Blending in Premiere Pro
Assisting with Studio Portraits / Reflecting on my own practice.
Assisting with today’s photoshoot was not immediately relevant to any of my current projects. However, if I intend to identify as a photographer it is important to be familiar with how to set-up a basic studio portrait shoot using flash photography and a bounce board. Photo-journalist Alice Aedy often photographs on-location, however, I have noticed…… Continue reading Assisting with Studio Portraits / Reflecting on my own practice.
Salsa Flash Mob Videography | Reflecting on collaborative experience
This was the first real collaborative experience I have had so far this term with videography, despite reaching out to fellow coursemates. The team today was a network of fellow lens-based practitioners, some who I had met through Salseros Unite contacts, and some who I had reached out to on the year below in VisCom.…… Continue reading Salsa Flash Mob Videography | Reflecting on collaborative experience
