Rewrite #3

Link to Original Blog : Week 5, Video Task

To me design thinking is a philosophy and a set of tools to help you solve problems creatively. It is also a production process that helps you to organise effectively. It can be loosely divided into three stages these are Pre-production, Production and Post-production.

In the YouTube video by Aj & Smart by Johnathan Courtney CEO at AJ & Smart, he shared that if you’re going to be working with anything got to do with design thinking, it is innovation taking the philosophy of design thinking and learning using something like the design sprint as a recipe to run design thinking. I think digital media products that could apply design thinking to would be, films, documentaries, podcasts, vlogs  (Jonathan, 2020).

The three stages of Production are first Pre-production, this is where you would write dialog, find the cast and crew, find out locations, look for props or costumes, think about the budget how much everything will cost and than make a production schedule. The second is the Production stage that is where you would principal photography, it usually is the most expensive stage, sometimes it can lead to no point return and Production ends with a WRAP. Lastly, is the Post-production which usually means finishing picture editing, adding visual effects, fixing the colour correction, or grading and adding sound effects and music. It can be the longest part of production that could take weeks to months to years.

I never knew that there was that many stages to production, I was aware about some parts such as production where the main filming happens and that editing can take sometimes years like how Avatar took years to produce no wonder with the amazing visual effects.

My thoughts on production process are that it depends what film or video you are making but all videos should have a process that helps you organise and give more structure to the content. I think it is important to be aware and learn about design thinking and various stages associated with design thinking to help you with production process. The video might be a short video and no budget so you can’t make the best video, but you can fill it with the most important content that is easy to understand.

For me the most useful information discussed in the video that would help me with my group project would be, to organise effectively and to start off with questions like what your story idea is and do it in three stages which would be Pre-production, Production and Post-production. For my group project I will have to learn how to start making a video. Firstly, come up with a script from our group. Then I will have to think about the location and what materials I have to film and sound, after that I will have to think about doing principal photography which ends with a wrap. Lastly, I will have to finish picture editing and visual effects and add sound effects and music which is the longest part of production. Then test and see how it is, fixing any mistakes and then publishing  (Booth, 2014).

I would like to try applying all the aspects discussed above, but I would love to learn how to make motion graphics which would be great for videos, I would like to apply all the aspects discussed above but I know I don’t have a budget and location will have the be the group member’s home.

Another Revision, Week 9, Reading Task

pixabay photo Hi welcome back to my blog, The blogs I reviewed were  Ryan's Blog  for the week 3 reading task and  Milo's Blog  for the week 6 video task. I think they both did a great job on their blogs, I could just give them suggestions to add the source from where they got their opinion.  I learned from the comments on my blog that I have to start implying my experiences and feelings on the subject from Finn and that I should also add a conclusion paragraph to wrap it all up from Chloe. I also learned from Adam that he liked how I sourced the information on my blog and the way I lay it out. When I did the revise on my blog I implied the feedback which helped me a lot to know what I should be doing. Finn also gave me two good questions to help me make my blog clearer. They were “what’s the difference between Ethics and Morals” so I changed the paragraph to make it clearer on my revised blog. He also asked me “if I had any other examples of dark patterns ...

Reading Task, Week 10

free pixabay photo Hi welcome back to my blog. Today I will talk about how the peer review and the rewriting experience has gone over the semester. I have learned from the peer review task that I should add a bibliography at the end of every blog and add in text citations. I also need to start talking about the experience I have on the topic and how I feel about the topic which I have started to do in my recent blogs and plan to change on my previous blogs. I feel that my writing and reading skills have improved since my first feedback and even more since I got more feedback from other peers. I have received some great feedback overall to help me improve my blogs and know where I can make content easier and more enjoyable to read. Concise writing goal is to use the most effective words. To use the stronger words not always fewer. To get to the main point of the topic. (Arts, 2021) Too wordy sentences such as “It is the governor who signs or vetoes bills. – 9 words. Concise sent...
