Skills audit: Think back to the research that you conducted for your As Practical work: how have your skills in research developed since then? Write a short summary of these developments

In the As year we used a lot of social sites in order to distribute our Thriller openings. In addition others were used for researching tools in the development for our practical work. What I used the most was Vimeo and YouTube a lot in order to view potential thrillers I could get some inspiration for my media project, Youtube had an abundant amount of trailers for released thrillers and Vimeo had a reasonable collection of student thrillers from the past years so these were  good places for starting my research.

Ashes To Ashes

I believe I've developed as a student and researcher in the way I find my sources, i'm going to utilise the library more, there's a lot of novels on music as an art which can can take and have a read about. i didn't use this source last year and in this A2 year I will make sure I use this for my benefit and my groups also. I will also use articles on musicians and music and analyse them in order for me to brainstorm different ways I can produce my Music piece to viewers. I'm fortunately blessed to be part of a music group called Anti-wave so I already know some back history on formatting music, editing music videos, different genres of genres which appeal to younger viewers. 


Below is a piece recently made this month by my close friend and group member wize, He created his first Net Vid 'Rap piece'. We did a basic music video with minimal edits really. Hope you enjoy it.
