There are many skills I will need to be successful in this class. One of the skills I will need is how to edit videos and photos carefully. I will need this skill when working on creating images for our print material. A strategy I can use will be to watch the ‘how to’ videos ahead of time and practice on sample images before I start my images for my project. This way I will be prepared when we start the video editing and creating the final video.
Another skill I will need to be successful in this class is organisation. There are many steps that need to be completed during this class to complete the final project. I will need to be organized to make sure that I have all of the materials I will need. One strategy I can use to organize my work is to create folders for each section of work, saving the files I will need in each folder. I can also name files carefully to save time when I need to go back and find them. When I come up with something I am unsure during this class, I will use the tools that are provided for me and seek help from others when needed. This will help me to be successful.
