Welcome to my blog, I am melisa aliu and I am studying a level media as one of my courses. I am interested in media as it gives me an upper hand in what I want to study in university. in this course I will be studying music videos AND WHAT MAKES OR BREAKS THEM. LAST YEAR FOR AS FOR MY FOUNDATION PORTFOLIO I CREATED A 2 MINUTE SEQUENCE THAT CONFORMED TO GENERIC CONVENTIONS, I was exploring the horror genre in which I was given tasks to research and analyse the horror genre as part of research that will aid me in creating my two minute opening sequence to a film. We learned the basic skills required to put together and edit the sequence with help from Final cut pro. i fiddled around with the programme, exploring the variety of edits i could use to create the element of horror. These basic techniques have then since been adapted and the basic knowledge of the programme has now become a good understanding on how to use it and produce a music video of high standard.
