REFLECTION

While working on the Lalin video editing project, I gained valuable experience and skills, especially in using Adobe Premiere Pro. I learned many of the basic functions and tools, which helped build a solid foundation in video editing.

For Part 2 of the project, the production shoot, I had a great time collaborating with my teammates to recreate a short video. As the art director during the shoot, I felt grateful to be part of such a supportive and creative team. 
During the editing process, I learned how to apply color correction to improve the visual appeal of the video. When I was working on the trailer, I really enjoyed working step by step, transforming each short clip into an exciting and emotionally engaging trailer.
Overall, this project was not only fun but also a meaningful learning experience that improved my teamwork, creativity, and technical skills in video production and editing.
