I don't think anyone had any clue what to do for this final mission. We had fewer choices than we did for the last two missions which made it harder to pick. I decided to go with the easier option which was Digital Journalism as for the previous two missions, I wanted to pick something that I hadn't done before and that were going to be a little challenging. Our lecturer wanted to do something completely different which was to make a video of the end product and the process instead of a presentation and we would all be critiquing ourselves by the end of the semester by watching all of the videos in the 2 hour lecture. We could pick anyone from the 5 groups to do this project with and I decided to pick my dearest friend and a girl in my group as she didn't have anyone else to do the project with.
We were really nervous doing this because the expectations were supposed to exceed the last two missions and we had to do a video on top of that. Our goals for this mission, we read the suggested article that our lecturer provided us with here. We decided to talk to Megan's lecturer on her opinion of the topic and what the video is supposed to represent. We had so many ideas but the thought of putting that onto a video were a little bit tricky and we don't have much experience with premier pro, and it would take a long time trying to figure out how to edit it in a way where we all felt comfortable.
To me, digital journalism changed a lot throughout the years and it probably got worse over the decade, I usually come by digital journalism on snapchat, on twitter etc.. On snapchat it's all about celebrities whereas twitter you have a lot on politics and a lot of different opinions. When it comes to news I like to read newspapers, I used to have so many stacked up in my room because my boyfriend would bring one every evening. Nowadays it's everywhere and it's free. The thing I didn't know about digital journalism was that there's so many different forms of journalism and I had no idea how creative people can make them, such as long form scrollytelling, personalised etc..
My group and I decided on Youtube news, we are all familiar with it one way or another and they tend to exaggerate things when it comes to celebrity gossip. Our goal for the mission was to research more about digital journalism and how we were going to go about doing this video. We decided it would be best to do a video mocking celebrity news on Youtube. The only downfall doing this mission was the fact that we were all busy doing other assignments as well as working, and sickness..
The resources we're going to be using are Premier Pro, Photoshop, and Audacity. We are going to be researching the different forms of news on Youtube, and we're going to use Youtube to help us in our editing journey. The only issue with that is the fact that you have to edit a video on one laptop, you can't alter it like you do a presentation together and that's the tricky part.
Anyway I'll let you guys know about my end product in the next blog post and I'll see y'all soon!!! -Anna
