Evaluation 3 - How did your production skills develop throughout this project?

I created this infographic poster using Canva. Before beginning of Media Studies, the most experience is I take pictures and edit small videos.  However, after beginning work on my foundation portfolio I felt that my skills had increased significantly from what they used to be, and I viewed filmmaking differently as well and my production skills have improved throughout the process of making my film making.

Adding a production company logo to the beginning of my sequence

Image
                                          I decided to add the production company logo before my film opening. I felt that this was a better way to start my film opening instead of just fading in from black. I chose the name AJ Productions as AJ is the short form of my full name and I did not have any other ideas so I used this as my production logo company. After watching a few tutorials online, I used Photoshop to design my logo. I made it a simple one with a nice font from Photoshop itself and a fade-out background which can show some mystery vibes which I think it successfully did.

I added a few transitions to blend it together and was satisfied with the result.               The picture of the production company...

Editing the Credits

Image
  I decided to spruce up my credits a bit more. I added two different fonts for important names and accompanying texts. For example in one font 'A film by', would have a different font and  ' AJ PRODUCTIONS ' have a different font. I increased the font size and added more credits as well.  This is the order of credits I used  Production Company Starring -  Director of Cinematography Writer & Director Producer The title of the film was displayed before the end scene

The First Cut
