Yesterday, when I got bored of editing my action trailer, I decided to create an animated logo, or ‘sting’ as they’re often called, to go at the start of all my future projects, just to make it look a bit more professional, and so perhaps my name/logo will stick in your memory.
I’m finally getting somewhere with this action trailer, the final piece of work in my trailer collection (also the last bit of work I can do before I get the footage from Jade’s and Dave’s films, which they are yet to shoot), and so far, I’m really enjoying the process.
So here it is, in all it’s glory. I’m really pleased with the end result, and while there may be a few tweaks made here and there over the next few months before hand-in in May, this is pretty much it:
The last few weeks have been mainly taken up with dissertation work, but now that my first draft is all done and handed in, I can finally get back to what I love most about this year…the freedom to just edit…everything and anything I want. I love it.
I’ve spent the last 5 days working solidly on my showreel and it is finally complete!

I’m currently cutting together my editing showreel, and it’s going great. The only issue I’m having is with the music, as the track I had originally chosen doesn’t really quite work with what I want to do. So now I’m trying to decide on a different track.
Over the last week I have mostly been focusing on my dissertation and getting a solid first draft done so that I can really turn my attention to this project, because knowing me, once I properly start the editing on the various parts of my portfolio, I won’t stop, and everything else will be out … More (5) Getting Back To It
I’ve been away on holiday in Mauritius for Christmas and so have had no internet for over a week, hence the late blog post. To be honest, I’m a little ashamed to say that there’s not much to report in the way of progress. This is due to hectic-ness of family and Christmas, and of … More (4) Slow Going
I am making progress. At least I hope so. I’ve made a start on two of my essays, the contextual one about the role of the editor, and the write-up of my work experience placements. They’re going pretty well – although at the moment they’re more in the planning stages than the actual writing phase. … More (3) Progress
Over the last week I’ve been busy planning out what I’m going to be doing for my final project. Last week I mentioned what is going to be in my portfolio, and since then I’ve been working on a few more ideas, particularly for my showreel, as this is the section that I can really … More (2) Organising + Starting
