First of many!

This blog post is going to hopefully provide you with some interesting facts about myself even though I don't have much to work with!
Im going to try keep this short and sweet. My name is Leslie and I just turned 21 this Wednesday (and before you ask, no I don't feel old yet). I live in a bungalow in a field in Kilbride but thankfully I drive or else I would have to walk ages to get to anywhere which does sound very appealing to me!

This is my second time attempting college. I went directly to college when I finished my leaving cert around 3 years ago now but realised very quickly that the course wasn't for me. I am extremely indecisive on what I want to do in life and on simple decisions in general but i'm hoping to get into film in some way so fingers crossed I don't drop out of this course.

Hopefully this will be the first of many blog posts I write.

I edited the main video and Mel edited the vlog that we done documenting the process of filming our video. I found it quite difficult to edit as it is something i've never done before and it was a long video (46 minutes). I managed to edit it down to 24 mins. I wanted to add more skil...

My first few college assignments! A reflection

Welcome back to my blog!  I have decided to write a quick blog post on my first few weeks in college and how I have been getting on with assignments.  As it is my first year in college I was apprehensive and anxious to start, I wasn't sure how I was going to handle my time and get everything done, but so far I have managed quite well.  The module that I have enjoyed the most since starting college would have to be Creative Digital Media. Even though out of all the modules it is the one that involves the most work, I have thoroughly enjoyed the wide aray of subjects we get to choose from and the tasks that we have to complete within them.  The youtubing task was the most fun for me. I loved getting the opportunity to film and improve my editing skills. Although I am proud I have done so far, I do feel I can still improve in some areas.  It is taking me some time to get the hang of using Adobe premiere Pro as it is all new to me but hopefully over ti...
