In my previous answer, I had hoped to develop my production techniques, including writing, editing, film composition, sound and editing.

I can confidently say that I have learnt so, so much about Film and TV construction/production, especially in regards to sound and lighting. Writing will always be of strong interest to me and I will continue to do my own research and experimentations to teach myself more.

I would have liked to learn a bit more about using the camera- the in-class theory was great however I feel that I was not getting enough actual “play time” with the equipment unless I was in that role for our films. (Being first AD, I was not able to do much in terms of the technical side i.e. sound, lighting or camera). In addition, the Editing classes helped significantly to get the hang of Premiere, as I had never used it until this semester.

“If i can come out of this semester saying I know twice what I knew coming into the subject, I will be content with my learning experience”- I said this at the start of the course, and I can confidently say I have achieved my learning goals! I have learnt a LOT more than twice what I originally knew, and can confirm for myself that this is the area I want to work in when I come out of this degree.
