Level 2 transition questions:
My main interests:
Above are some questions I started then finished. I had 4 questions to answer and the questions were about the skills I've learnt, what I'm moving onto next year (course wise) and why, how this year has been successful and what I want to do in the future and what I mainly feel I need to improve on and why.
What I want to do in the future:
What I want to do after I've finished college and my level 3 course which I'm doing for the next 2 years is look into universities and what universities do a media course. I went onto the internet and search up "100 universities that do media", when I went on and clicked the link I got tons to view from.
After I've finished college and university I'm looking to get a job that involves media or something that is based around media.
Things I have to do to improve on photoshop:
The things I have to improve on when I'm using photoshop is the cutting tool and the eraser tool. The reason why I need to improve the cutting tool is because when I use the cutting tool I don't cut out the details I need to cut out and I cut out the details I need, and the reason why I need to improve on the eraser tool is because I don't erase the details I don't need, I erase the details I need.
To improve on this I will be watching YouTube videos and once I've watched the YouTube videos I will be adding the links to the video I watched and will be doing my own example of photos where I use the cutting tool and eraser tool.
Links to YouTube videos:
I'm going to put some links of the YouTube videos where it shows me how to improve my skills of using the cutting and eraser tool.

Above is the second link to the video I will be watching and in this video it will be explaining how to use the eraser tool on photoshop.
What my final piece will look like:
What my final piece will look like when I'm doing my final piece for my transition work is I will take a picture of the back of my nike shirt with my thumbs pointing to where my name is. I will then edit my name on there using letters that I grabbed off the internet and carefully used the cutting tool, I will also add a shirt number (number 1) and add the old premier league badge before it got changed in 2016, the old champions league badge and champions league badge.
Clips I'm going to use and edit on Adobe Premiere Pro:
Outside of college my main interests are sports and photography. When I'm out and about I like to go out and do photography and capture the scenery of the places where I've been, below are going to be 5 of my own photos that I took when I was out and about and I will choose 3 of my best one which I'm going to use for my transition project which I'm going to make on photoshop.
5 of my best photography:
7th February 2020, Greenwich England:
22nd April 2019,Westminster England:
31st July 2017, Emirates Stadium England:
21st September 2019, Greenwich London:
21st September 2019, Westminster London:
Above are 5 photos of my own pieces of photography that I took a couple of years ago.
The original photo:
About half n hour, an hour ago me and 3 mates decided to use the colleges green screen room and I saw that as a perfect opportunity to take some photos and experiment my photoshop skills. I took 27 photos in total but think this is the best one to do a edit on. What I'm planning on doing is adding my name to the back of the shirt (like they do with footballers) and add the number 1 to associate the goalkeeping spot and add a premier league logo. I'll take screenshots to how I done it and document the process.
Edited version:
Above is the edited version of my football shirt, what I decided to do was add my name on the back and the number 1. The reason why I decided to do this is because I see footballers do this when they sign for their new clubs. I added the old premier league badge, the champions league badge and FA cup badge.
I decided to go in the green screen room and take up to 25 photos and go on photoshop and edit one of them photos, by editing these photos it helps me massively improve my editing skill and going forward that could be helpful because when I'm older I would like a job that involves media and probably something where it involves me using a eating software such as adobe premier pro or photoshop.
Above are three clips I decided to screen record off my phone and then I decided to airdrop these clips to my computer and make it on adobe premier pro. I got the clips from ITV Youtube channel so all copyright issues goes to their respective owners. The three clips I used was from the penalty shootout win against Columbia back in the Russia World Cup 2018
How I'm looking to edit these clips is when Eric Dier scores the deceive penalty before he goes over to his England teammates I'm going to cut out a bit before he goes over to them and add Ian Wright, Lee Dixon and Gary Neville celebrating England winning their first ever penalty shootout in a World Cup and England winning their first ever shootout since euro 96 where we beat Spain 4-2 on penalties all but 25 years ago.
Video edit 1:
*clips belong to their respective owners*
Above is a video edit I made and I based it on our penalty shootout win back in the 2018 World Cup which was being held by Russia. This was our first ever penalty shootout win at the world cup and our first penalty shootout win since euro 96 where we beat the Spanish 4-2 on penalties where we would play the Germans in the semi final in euro 96 and losing 5-6 on penalties. Going into this penalty shootout England lost six of their 8 penalty shootouts winning 2. We lost to the Germans twice both in semi finals in Italia 90 and euro 96, lost to Argentina in the quarter finals back in 1998, euro 2004 where we lost to the hosts Portugal, lost again to Portugal back in the World Cup in 2006 in Germany and quite recently lost to the Italians on penalties back in euro 2012.
What I made this video edit on was adobe premier pro, the reason why I made this video edit is so I can improve my editing skills when using video editing softwares such as adobe premier pro.
The reason I made this video edit was because alongside photography my other passion is football and I wanted to do a video edit based on football and based on something that was a few years ago.
Video edit 2:
Above is a second video edit I have made. I decided to base it off Arsenal's two best game in their recent history. I grabbed two clips from past Arsenal games, and they were Real Madrid 0 Arsenal 1 at The Santiago Bernabéu and Arsenal 2 Juventus 0 at Arsenal's old home of 93 years, Highbury. The reason why I decided to do an edit based off Arsenal was because it was the two most important wins in our run when we reached the 2006 Champions League final.
