Independant Project for Digital Media

Lecture 1,
We have been looking at branding ourselves so that we could be used to market our talents, skills and show what we have to offer the media industry.
From using combinations of my first name and surname (Catherine Milne) I have been given ideas for names I could use for my own company or products.

Possible ideas are MilneC, KittyCat and Camil or Camile...

Elements i hope to combine in this project are Dance, Photography and editing programmes such as Adobe Photoshop and After Effects.


I am looking foreword to engaging in an independent project as it give me much more freedom and opportunities to explore my own ideas and to conceptualise my project to others.
I understand that it should have some relation to theoretical contexts of my media and cultural studies course. Once I have deided on what theory I wish to draw on I will do background research and find examples and ideas to then help create my own storyboard and assist me in grasping a better knowledge and understanding of the processes I will need to go through.

From the module guid i understand that three-stages in the process of creation will need to be understood:

Pre-production stage (my research and collecting background information...)


Production stage (producing the digital media product...)

Post-production stage (Evaluating and possibly exhibiting or presenting my piece...)
