Solo Project
In the last week of my internship, I was tasked to do a video on the Cloud Forest at Gardens by The Bay. Something I had learnt from my prior experiences of filming for previous videos was how I had panned too fast and sometimes too much. I figured that I could slow down when panning the videos to reduce the dizziness the viewers might experience when watching the videos. Additionally, I could also take some still shots of scenery that could add variety to the types of shots in the video.
After editing and putting together four snippets, I felt quite confident in my ability to create something that I could be proud of putting out, and that indeed was the case for this snippet. On the other hand, I was still quite unsure about putting together a whole video that would require more effort and skills than the snippet video. As I started importing the videos into the software, I started to already plan what videos would go in which order, what type of music I would use and what information I wanted to put in the video. As I started editing, I found out that this was very helpful, that I already had a creative direction I wanted to work towards, and this helped to increase my confidence in making a quality video
After putting out the first draft and getting some feedback on places I could improve, I put the tools I had learnt to use — such as the fading of the audio and video — and the video was finally completed!
Fountfully Work Experience For Internship
In the past 8 weeks, I have had the opportunity to do an internship at a social enterprise, Fountfully, where I had the chance to put the knowledge and skills I have accumulated in school to use. Although short, it was an enriching experience where I got to learn and work with colleagues from various backgrounds. Working in a small start-up that is simultaneously a social enterprise has also enabled me to experience things my friends do not in their internship.
