As an aspiring video editor, Post-Production was obviously a class I’ve been looking forward to since I got to Full Sail in January. Back when I made my goals for each class in Mastery I only had a rough idea of what I would be doing in each class, so my goals were a bit vague. Also, when I made the goals we had yet to be in an endless lockdown due to the Covid-19 virus which pretty much canceled our thesis projects we had planned early in the year. 

As such, my first goal of finishing a rough cut was definitely predicting where I’d be at in my thesis film. Despite that, I have been editing a feature film that we shot over the summer and have finished the assembly cut and about halfway through the rough cut. Also, I reached picture lock for a short film I shot last month so I accomplished this goal.

While I do have the book, “In the Blink of an Eye” thanks to a previous class, I still have to read the book. The rest of this goal I think I’ve accomplished as I’ve learned a lot more about Premiere Pro and am starting to learn more about Media Composer and am planning on getting certified in it by the end of my time at Full Sail.

The last goal of using feedback effectively has been accomplished the best I could considering I don’t get as much feedback from my classmates as I’d like and often don’t get much from faculty either, depending on the class. This month especially I wish I could’ve gotten more feedback on what I have worked on recently as, like I said earlier, I’m hoping to get into the post-production field so this is the subject I most want to hone my skills in.
