EDLD 5363 Week 5. PSA Reflection

Public Service Announcement (PSA) Reflection.





Course Reflection

I envisioned that I would learn some techniques in order to be capable to integrate different elements, still images, voice, music and videos. I think that I have achieved those outcomes because I have experienced the steps that are used from the beginning of the project making the first proposal and the narration script and finally the copyright documentation. I can say that my envisioned outcomes aligned with those that I have reached with this course and the final product (PSA) proves it.

The outcomes that we set from the beginning of the course have been relevant because as administrators and teachers we are able to produce materials for our colleagues, parents or the educational community in general. We can know more about credits and copyrights. Of course, the produced materials will have better quality and a appropriate structure. In addition, as administrators we can supervise other in the production of a multimedia product.

We cannot say that there are any outcomes we did not achieved. But, I think that I would like have learned more about all the features that Adobe Premiere has. I think that the lack of time was a factor that prevent me of master this program. However, I think that I learned the fundamentals or the software in terms of sound, pictures and video integration and the manipulation of transition. Definitely, I can improve my skills if I continue practicing it.

I completed all assignments successfully. I think that we have enough time to read the materials see the videos. On the other hand, I think that I need more time to go deep in the knowledge of editing software. In this final part, the used progressive refinement throughout the course, in order to finish the work by the fifth week.

My first thought that making a video was going to be hard because I have never used this kind of software for edition. I can see that I am a team worker because we reach a certain degree of integration working as a team during the PSA production (the members played different roles and we communicate adequately by skype or email). In general, my attitude was of cooperation and integration as a team. In general, all the members have had this attitude, as well.
