End of the year Reflection

      Early in the year, I learned the importance of the screen format. You can see that in my first video, I did not do this, considering the fact that the screen was incredibly tiny. On my second project, i learned how to make the screen bigger, and how to make the clips flow more smooth, i can not stress how important it is for the video to be edited smoothly and not all choppy. A scene that shows this well is in the film called "Cyberbullying is bad" when the interviews are going nice, the only thing I would have changed about that was sometimes trees in the background looked like the were attached to the people being interviewed.
      
     Later in the year, I showed that I really had learned the concept well, ssince I showed this in other projects. One good example is from "Baler Pride" in the scene when all the students were saying what makes them so proud to be a baler.

     I feel I have learned so much this class from crazy effects to sound. I really think it helped alot when we would watch video examples of the new topic we were about to work on. Also, I think I learned the most from the worksheets we would do when learning about all the different camera angles. It helped having to draw pictures of the angles too, it made them stick in your head and really grasp the angles.

    
    My overall experience in this class has been awesome. Sometimes i found this class a little frustrating like when learning about the ripple delete and all. Luckily this class was like a giant family and everyone supported eachother and helped them out a lot.

Sequence 01 1



  In this shot we used twirl and threshold. We animated it by toning the color and we also re-distorted  the chracters face. Overall this was a pretty simple process to complete!

Sequence 01






The first effect we used was the twirl effect, amd in order to get that we had to go to the effects box in Premiere Pro and click on twirl. We adjusted how the twirl would look. Then we used the wave warp effect. Alexis and I changed the saturation setting and the speed of the waves. We aslo changed the shape of the wave.
These effects could be used in a move to distort faces and make them kind of look like monsters, which has similarities to the effects in spy kids.

Reflection on Holiday Greeting Video

In looking back, and thinking about what my partner and I did a good job on is the our conversation is, it is informative and it sound like we are really talking to eachother. We really did a great job with the pictures that we picked out, and our music.

What I saw in other videos that  i thought was really cool was the sound effects. I really l;iked this because it seemed very realistic, and believable that our classmates were really there.

I focused on the editing, and part of the script. I tried to perfect the editing to the best of my ability, but because the performances on the script were a little sloppy because it was our first time with a script, it was challenging to edit.

I helped my partner by explaing to her certain staeps we had to do, or if she didnt know how to do something, I told her how to do it. Alexis helped me out by coming in after school to finish our video when i couldn't come in to do it.

If i could change anything it would be the fact that i'm invisible, the editing should be more smooth.

Holidays!



HAPPY HOLIDAYS
