Assignment:
prepare drafts of your summary slide (presentation.png, 1920x1080)
and video clip (presentation.mp4, 1080p HTML5, < ~minute, < ~10 MB) and put them in your root directory
This week assignment is a prompt to us students to start to prepare for our presentation slide as well as our presentation video for the 'big day'.
When comes to video, by starting earlier helps me to visualise what I want to flim for my presentation video. It also gave me time to select the music for the video, the transition effect, graphic, text, etc.
This week also to check the linkage of our slide and video on the presentation website.

I started off by using Microsoft Powerpoint to create my draft powerpoint slide, however since I was editing some of my photos using Adobe Photoshop, so I thought why not just use Adobe Photoshop, therefore I switched to Adobe Photoshop. The
advantages are its' powerful photo editing tools, many special effects and greater customisation, etc.
I am familiar with Adobe Premiere Pro CC as I am using the software in my workplace to create some simple videos.
I went to 'Motion Array' website to download a few royalty free Premiere Pro templates as well as music (need to create account to download) :
-> At the 'Filter results' side bar -> select 'Free item'

I also downloaded an open source screen recorder for Windows called 'CamStudio' from https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/camstudio_portable.
My final presentation slide and video is available on my Project Presenation Page at the following link :
