Portfolio Introduction

This year for A levels, for the major task, we have an option do to a short film, a music video, documentary or a film proportion package, but because I like music, my creativity would like to explore making a music video for the major task. Why? because, in my opinion, music videos help me pay attention to the story by using catchy sounds and lyrics that tell a story in a more creative way that reflects things implicitly or explicitly. Music videos has more artistic view compared to a film or a documentary, it tells a story using symbolism, abstract visuals, bold editing, and expressive shots. 


a music video that really sits well with me is in a movie titled Creed 2 and there is a song titled 'I will go to war' by Tessa Thompson

Image
On the 22nd June all the media students were assigned the task of filming for the International Yoga day that was hosted by my school, CP Goenka International school, and all the students were asked to capture the moments of children of the primary and secondary batch performing yoga positions and practicing yoga.  With the reels made of capturing moments from the yoga day, we were made to submit it to the school so we could be judged on our editing skills and performance.
