Self Evaluation

In class today we were editing what we had filmed so far of our hangover task, being new to media I lacked knowledge in relation to the use of the camera. I was unable to use blur and focus in the same shot, which was needed in the shot with phil and the car scene.
In this photo phil is in focus and the background blurred.
With the help of the media guy that came in (can't remember his name) I was able to understand that i could edit all of this on photoshop, Something i'd never done before. He demonstated how to use it and how I could blur the whole shot, then copy a second scene and 'mask' phil (or Alex) to keep him in focus. The idea was brilliant but has not yet been finished and has taken a good hour to do what totals up to about 30 seconds of footage, this, because the person moves, and every movement you have to stop the clip and re align the mask. I now feel confident in using this part of photoshop and hopefully will be able to use it in our remake of the hangover!
