For my AICE Media Studies project, I've decided to take on the challenge of working alone, which I think will make the whole process way smoother. Working alone means I get to call all the creative decisions without having to deal with group disagreements or compromise my vision in regards to the project. By choosing to work independently, I can move faster and get my ideas down exactly how I want them, without spending tons of time trying to coordinate with other people nor deal with the issue of improper communication or misinterpreting. This approach lets me have total control over the project, from the initial concept to the final edit. I'm confident that working by myself will help me express my creative ideas more directly and efficiently, and I won't have to worry about conflicting schedules or different creative perspectives slowing me down. The freedom to experiment and make my own decisions without group consensus is super appealing, and I'm looking forward to seeing how my individual creativity can shine through in this project.

When it comes to the technical side of things, I'm planning to use a mix of editing software like iMovie, Adobe Premiere, and Windows Movie Maker. Each of these programs has different features that I think will help me create a unique final product. I've already have prior experience in video editing skills from previous projects, so I'm hoping to build on those and maybe learn some new techniques along the way. This project will provide me a chance to really push myself and see what I can do as a filmmaker. By handling everything from shooting to editing on my own, I'll get to challenge myself and hopefully create something that really shows off my creative skills and technical abilities in media production. I'll need to be super organized and really plan out each step of the process. But I'm excited about the challenge and the opportunity to prove to myself that I can handle a complex media project completely on my own. Plus, learning multiple editing software will definitely be a valuable skill for future projects and might even help me in potential career paths down the line. I'm looking forward to seeing how my skills improve throughout this project and how I can push my creative boundaries. The entire process feels like a personal goal to accomplish, where I'll be testing my limits and discovering new aspects of my creative potential in media studies.
