Reflecting on my AS Year

Upon reflection of my first year studying Media Studies, I don't believe my AS coursework was up to the standard my tutors and even I expected. This was due to several personal issues throughout the year which caused inconveniences within my college life. Despite this, I believe I have learnt new skills and abilities in my first year. These skills include developing my photoshop skills, using new online software like 'Prezi' (www.prezi.com) and even learning the basics of blogging. Many of these skills I had never delved into before until I started my AS year and I believe this was clear throughout my coursework, in particular my blog and the amount of content I had uploaded to it was rather poor. However, I think my strong point and probably the most predominate aspect of my coursework was my final designs for my magazine, which showcased my photoshop skills which I had developed further during this year.

With my inconveniences no longer, I feel as though I am able to progress greatly this year and both learn new skills and apply old skills to this project with effect. I am particularly looking forward to working and experimenting with video, as it is a media that has always intrigued me yet I have not explored the potential of this new media in depth.
