John Lewis Advert

This next piece of work was for us to take a John Lewis advert and cut it down to under a minute in length while retaining the last couple of seconds containing the brand and contact information.
I attempted to only remove shots between cuts so that the overall flow of the advert wasn't interrupted and the location didn't change too drastically.
The only problem I had was with the audio, especially when the music kicks up, as it was harder to cut out shots without making it obvious with a poor audio or visual transition.
(for example the transition at 0:33)
However I believe I did my best with my current skillset and I managed to make my edits less noticeable upon first viewing.

Deodorant Montage

We created our deodorant montages in order to experiment with Adobe Premiere Pro and test our pre-existing editing skills and gain an idea of what skills we need to refine.

We were given several songs and deodorant adverts to use in the creation of our montage and told to utilise the editing tools at our disposal such as transitions and cuts.

I know I didn't do much to this montage however I think it will be a great point of reference to see how much I improve.

An Introduction to Me

Hello, my name is Jacob, I've created this blog in order to document my progress while studying As-Level Media studies. While I wont publish every little thing I do with Media Studies I will upload anything I create or any exceptional work progress made.

So that you have a better idea of what kind of person I am and what kind of work I may produce in the future I will give you a short summary of myself.

In short, I have a great love for media (most prominently games and film) and the production of these has interested me for a long while. The more I learn about them, the more my interest is piqued, the more I want to turn my appreciation into something others can enjoy. While I'm not the most active and I can get distracted, once I'm focused on something I wont stop until its perfect.
