Lesson details
Learning outcome
I can consider the impact of the choices made when making a video.
Key learning points
- Videos can be improved through editing or reshooting.
- Videos can be enhanced by adding multimedia elements.
- Choices made during capture and editing will have an impact on the final video.
- If you want to share your video it will need to be exported from the video editing software you have used.
