Continuity editing exercise

We divided this task because we could not meet up to shoot and edit this. Hira took charge of filming the video, while I edited it and Tehreem made the final changes and finishing touches and refinement etc. #teamworkgoals.

The BTS of the shoot are on Hira's blog since she did the filming.

Here's the final thing:

Critical Reflection Essay

My essay of the critical reflection of my work in the Advanced Portfolio will mainly address the following compulsory questions: How do my products represent social groups or issues? How do the elements of my production work together to create a sense of "branding"? How do my products engage with the audience? How did my research inform my products and the way they use or challenge conventions? All of my products in the artist's promotion package - music video, digipak and social media - were all constructed after meticulous planning phases in order to effectively reach the audience. This included great consideration given to the sort of message or concept, and the social group that we wanted to represent through our music video. The song that we chose, "Party Police" is pretty straightforward - the lyrics are about a couple whose relationship is gradually deteriorating, and as we hear from her perspective, one of them is striving to hold it together by any me...
