Week 1 Asynchronous Study: 21 April 7PM-8pm

Um, this quiz below should be from the first week, but I didn’t fill it out until the second week (never mind, judging from the results, it shouldn’t be a big deal)
So here↓ is my answer

EXERCISES
Week 1 task
In the first week of class, Mr. Martin first asked me to join the VSP channel of the Microsoft team for this ↓ module...
And then he asked me to fill out this ↓ form and wrote my personal information...
Then, in class, he asked me if I had downloaded Adobe Premiere Pro on my laptop. I said yes, yes, and here ↓ it is. He said “Good”.
Next, if I remember correctly, I should download the materials on the Google link on this ↓ page in class and go to...

To complete the "mints" exercise.
Open Adobe Premiere Pro and drag all the downloaded video materials into it. Then arrange the materials on the timeline in the order of numbers (there is a one-click automatic placement operation step here, but Wang JiHeng helped me do it).
Similar to the "Doritos" editing exercise above, this exercise is also...
Download material...

Then, open Adobe Premiere Pro and create a new project. Drag the downloaded video materials into it (this time, Wang JiHeng left early because of get out of class, so I dragged the video materials one by one into the timeline) and then installed the serial number on the video timeline.
After exporting the video, the following is   ┐

In class, Mr. Martin asked me to team up with Wang JiHeng and another boy to shoot a video according to the angle requirements on the page below↓.
Then the following ↓8 videos were shot by us.
I plan to insert this BGM into the video I am going to edit next↓.
Here↓ is my process in Adobe Premiere Pro (and Adobe After Effects)

Week 3 - Shooting exercise 2

Who would have thought that I could get a “surprise” attack here? So based on the comment on this post, we know...

according to the Google Drive link and PPT above, we need to shoot these shots separately and reassemble them into one video. Then Mr. Martin (with 3 other classmates) quickly assigned me to a group. If our photos were correct, it would be as follows↓
             Deep Focus                                                 O.S 01                                              O.S 02
                            Tight M                                                Tight M.S Side Angle
The following is the process of video editing (actually editing and adding subtitles) in Adobe Premiere Pro.

FEEDBACK
Week 1:This week is the first class. Mr. Martin asked me to create e-portfolio and Google folder for this module and share the link. Fill in this form. After class, I asked him about my current progress and whether I did the two exercises correctly. He said that I did everything right, but the process was a bit too simple. I said I knew that I was just showing the finished results first, and I would update it. He said that was good, and I did everything right. At the end, I asked him about the "Purchase Tripod" he mentioned in that post. I did it and showed it to him (Jingrong gave it to me). He said yes, this is it, I did it very well.

Week 2:This week, Mr. Martin asked us questions about various shooting lenses in class, and then asked us to practice shooting the 8 sets of lenses outside the classroom. I teamed up with the other two students to shoot the video. After Martin pointed out some mistakes the first time and gave us some tips, our second shot video was fine.

Week 3:It's so funny. I will first "guide" or "supplement" this part of the wrong "LECTURES" content to the correct position. Then I prepared a "big" project this week, which will be completed in two weeks (it can be regarded as group work). So if nothing unexpected happens, I should stop writing the feedback part here. See you in the next post.

REFLECTION
Through this phase of learning, I’ve gained a clear understanding of shot size, camera angle, and composition, which help in visual storytelling. I also learned the three-act story structure, useful for building strong narratives. Lastly, I developed skills in storyboarding to better plan and visualize film scenes.
