• Consider who you are; what your likes and dislikes are; how you think; your thoughts and dreams; your passions; how you see yourself as an individual and in the local and global community. It could include your ideas on the environment, politics, philosophy, religion, love, sex, life and death.

I plan to portray passions of mine through my creative self-portrait by creating a video montage on that I am passionate about. My video will start with a video of myself and I will superimpose or include different video montages of the things I am passionate about. I aim for the montages to sync with the music that I will choose, and the self-portrait will end with another video of me to display myself. I may include a time lapsed video of me drawing my own portrait.

Editing tools, I could use could include things to edit the color and exposure of video clips I include and slow motion or time-lapsed videos. I could also lower the saturation of some videos to superimpose it over others. This way I can show different aspects of my passions at the same time in the video and express my personal style, identity and skills.

Each area of the video/ different sections of montage could include a block color slide to show the theme of the section. This could also be linked with an emotion or topic that I am passionate about and furthers the personal identification in the video. When the block color shows, to sync with the audio, the music could be paused or changed for the contrasting montages and ideas.

Could include reoccurring clips of me signing my name, showing my ID or expressing my identity in various ways, showing a theme of identity and putting my own mark on things. Create a loop on the video and a circular form to the video.
