Final Task: Mother

Looking back on the final task, I am grateful that I was able to work with a group. I was able to learn much more about editing through them and through the research we all did. Our growth in filming and editing is becoming more clear as we end the year with this project. Although we did run into some problems while filming, we were able to work everything out and have a final result that we are happy with. I hope you enjoy.

Title Research: Art of the Title Website

Image
  When our group was conducting research, we focused on a website called Art of the Title. We decided to view and research this website because it would further our knowledge in the opening credit scenes and help us with our upcoming project. In this website, it describes in words and pictures what a movie’s opening sequence and scenes are. We were able to see opening sequences of various film genres and movies, specifically thriller. Our group also saw that the opening sequences of the thriller movies were from different eras. This meant that we could see how the opening scenes evolved over time to add to the depth of the movie or film. We could also see how different directors of various films had different visions for their opening sequence. For example, one director took the title of the film literally, while another director focused on the editing portion. Since the group’s upcoming project includes an opening sequence, it was important to research the different and unique se...

Introduction to the Music Video Project

Image
For this music video project, I have decided to work by myself and not with multiple people. I do believe that I will excel in this way by not having anything holding me back as I have learned with previous assignments. Being in a pandemic, for my safety and others, it is important to keep up the social distancing and have no large gatherings. Although, I will have additional help for my film through close family. I believe that I will get this project done efficiently if I only rely on myself and my production skills. This way I am able to hold myself accountable for anything that might occur, in my favor or not. I will also be able to be more creative in my work which would be very difficult in a group of conflicting ideas. I also hope to further my production skills and become more familiar with the filming industry by doing this project. My time management skills will also improve from my last project where I was slightly unfamiliar with how fast paced and q...

Editing Blog: Testing Filters and Adjusters

Image
   As I finished filming, I began editing and piecing my videos, clips, and audios together. After airdropping the video clips from my phone to the laptop, I began importing the first half of the music video into iMovie. This took a little bit of time considering how long each file was. Some of my clips were a little longer than what I anticipated when shooting. I needed to trim them down to 5 seconds or less in order for the clips to fit the time frame. Some scenes were extremely longer meaning that I needed to trash them all together and film another day. I attempted to either slow down or speed up clips so that they could fit in, but they looked too awkward and out of place. I then added the 1 minute audio of the song I chose and placed it over the clips. I made sure to silent and mute every clip I had so that the music could be clearly heard and not covered by any noises in the videos. However, the most difficulty I faced was when the music video scenes...
