Reflection Question

  • The learning purpose of this video was to teach the individual watching this video, how to tie a tie that is suitable for any occasion
  • The reason why a video was a good medium for this learning purpose was because it was easier to explain the steps while also showing what to do, and in turn this makes it easier for the viewer to see what I am doing and copy it and tie a tie for themselves.
  • Some of the principles that felt like I used in my design were, coherence by making sure everything was in order and the steps were clearly laid out for the viewer. I also used the principle of personalization as I talked in a very conversational tone and made it comfortable for the viewer to follow along, rather than talking very robotically.
  • There were multiple parts that I found challenging while capturing my video, one of them being that I had to continuously start and stop my video as even though I had a script I found myself messing up the words. The second, and maybe the hardest part, was filming the video. I needed to capture myself, so I was having trouble figuring out how to set up the shot. I needed a tri pod, but unfortunately did not have one, therefore I had to make one. I used some wood that I had laying around and a very old selfie stick and made a makeshift tripod, I have attached a picture below.
Makeshift tripod that I created to shoot my video.
  • The easiest part for me was the editing. Although I did nothing too extravagant with the editing I still find it pretty easy and fun. I have done some editing work in the past therefore this process was pretty fun and quite stress free.
  • If I were to make this video again something I would do differently is use a wireless mic rather than just capturing the audio on my phone microphone as I realized that at some points I was very quiet and that it may have been hard for the viewer to hear what I was saying.
