Editing blog #1: Correcting the technique

 Today December 3rd, I completed half of my editing for my project. This process was not easy at all but I can say that it helped me come out my shell a bit. The apps I am using to edit my project are, iMovie and video leap. I am not using many apps because I want to show what I can do using limited resources. I am also coordinating between my phone and iPad to do the editing. The hardest part for me was getting the music the exact same way I had it played while filming so everything can go along. There was no trimming needed because all my scenes were a perfect 5 seconds. The first half of my project consist of many edits which made it kind of tricky. I re did so many edits to get it to my liking. I made sure my video didn't look too unprofessional by using lots of filters to brighten up the scenes and tone out my actors. I also added a few effects as the original did to make it more fun to watch. By doing all of this I believe the first half of my music video turned out great and just how I expected. Yes it was a rough road but in my opinion it was definitely worth it.

Planning Storyboard for my NIKE Commercial

Image
 First scene: During this scene we will be filming the Nike backpack for the commercial. The shot will be close up and will follow the subject as the actress is walking. This will be shot on the track as the actresses are walking in the gates talking to one another. Second scene: In this part of the commercial I wanted to really get a view of the Nike athletic shorts and tights. So, I will film the actresses doing leg warmups on the turf and get a close up shot as they are moving.  Third scene: This scene will be similar to the second one but instead we will be including the shirts and the headbands in the shot. The actresses will be doing upper body stretches so that way it will be easier to get a close up. Fourth scene: In this scene I will have the actresses running on the track to bring in the intense feeling that you will get from a Nike commercial showing off all the Nike gear that they have on. Fifth scene: In this scene the actresses will be on the turf laying down as ...

Comparing La Jetee, the short, and 12 monkeys, full length movie

Image
  Hey guys, for this blog I'll be comparing these two films, one which was a short and then another which was created as a "homage" to the first. Both these films are focused on a sci-fi post-apocalyptic world. The major differences between these is one is that 12 monkeys is a motion picture, and La Jetee is a series of photographs. The film helps to explain the plot which I had originally had trouble understanding, but it brings up the idea of that twist toward the end. In the movie both scenes in the beginning show a death and in both it is a character that we had been introduced to later in time. When bringing this to my short film, I can see the importance of a single scene and its impact on the story. The most important thing as well is the effect of the plot twist that can change the entire films idea and plot. After watching the video entirely it helped me realize the effect that the setting has on the film and I realized that I need to focus on creating that setti...

Comparing 9, the short, and 9, the full length movie

Image
Short film In the short film of the movie 9 the characters were all confused in the beginning. The plot to me seemed to be about two characters that arrived on a different planet that they have never seen before. They were searching around in area that looked much like a junk yard. There was also not much dialogue in the short film neither were there any humans. In the short there weren't much special effects. One very unique affect that this film did have is that when the robot came out they used some sort of glitch effect to make his laser/ weapon glow. Also when 9 was captured, they might have used a special effect to make the claw look real. The directorial style is very unique to me. Overall, this film doesn't have much to say about the conventions.  Full length film In the long film of the movie 9 it was clear that it was going to be more than just two characters in the beginning. A human hand was visible. In this film there was dialogue...
