LO4 Being able to prepare content and make a portfolio

This is some of the content that I will be using in my portfolio.

This is my graphics work that I created for 'Unit 32 Graphic Design for Media Products' I produced the artwork in InDesign and for the poster I used Photoshop to compose it I also took the background picture of Sheffield. The font I got of Dafont. I will use this in my portfolio because it shows of my skills using Illustrator and Photoshop, it also shows how creative I am. It is also a original idea so it shows my imagination.

This is a music video that I created for 'Unit 46 Audio Visual Promos'. For this I had work in a group, film and edit and original music video. To film I used a DSLR camera, we also recorded the song with a microphone, we used Premier to edit the footage. This shows my filming skills because I had to frame the shot and to time lapses. The video also shows my editing skills because I had to sync the music with the video and cut at certain points in the rhythm. Also it shows my styling skills because at different points in the video there are different emotions e.g a black and white filter on events that had happened in the past. I also had to work in a team so it shows that I have strong skills in team work. This is why I will add it into my portfolio.

These are collection of photos for my 'Unit 31 Digital Photography of Media Products'. For this we had to create 5 photos on the theme of Identity. For this is decided to photograph homeless people and I used Photoshop to edit them. These photos show my photography skills and my communication skills because I had to ask homeless people if it was alright for me to take pictures of them. It also shows me editing skills using Photoshop because I edited every picture and put the quotes on the photos. This is why these photos will be in my portfolio. 

This is a shot film about Weston Park Museum for 'Unit 41 Pre-Production and Production of Film'. For this I had to work in a group and we decided to make a shot documentary about Weston Park Museum (a popular Museum in Sheffield). For this I had to film with a 4K camera, write the script for the voice over and edit the footage on Premier. This project shows my skills in script writing, filming and editing. It also shows my communication skills because I had to communicate with someone from Weston Park to make sure filming was allowed. For these reasons I will be using this short film in my portfolio.

This a TV show that I have created for 'Unit 43 Production and Post-Production for TV'. Our group created a show called Yorkshire Lasses. This was my original idea from Unit 19. In this production I wrote the script, acted and directed. The fact that I wrote the script shows my creative writing skills and my ability to create a story. The fact that I directed shows that I have strong leadership skills and can organise people. I also had to organise all the actors and made sure people knew what we were doing. Yorkshire Lasses had been very successful and this is why it will be featured in my portfolio.

Finally I had to create a magazine for 'Unit 14 Producing a Print Based Media Product'. For this I had to take photos to be in my magazine, create articles to go in my magazine and design my magazine in InDesign. The making of this magazine shows my photography skills because I had to take photos suitable for the magazine. It also shows my skills in writing because I had to write articles for the magazine. Finally I had to lean and become familiar with InDesign so I could layout and compose my magazine, this is my it will be in my portfolio.
