Day One Of Editing My Sprite Commercial

 Today, I have begun the editing process for my Sprite commercial. I started off by opening video star, an editing app/program that is available on the phone. I usually use this app for personal editing because it is very easy to use and it has a lot of cool features so obviously I had to work on the commercial in this app. I put in my music first, then I tried cutting or leaving little checkmarks to where the clips would go into. This helps to keep it all organized and on beat with the music. Then I began to put in my clips to where I put the designated marks, this was sort of a struggle because some clips were shorter than planned and I needed a way for it to flow correctly with the music. I decided to stretch out the clips a little more to where it was on beat and the scenes wouldn't switch immediately, if they did you wouldn't really be able to tell what was going on since it's going too fast. Later, I began adding a little bit of coloring filter over the clips. I did this in order for the video to look a little more saturated and brighter, the original lighting for the clips was a little dull and it's not the theme I'm going for, I want this commercial to look peaceful but also cheerful and motivational. When that was completed I began looking for a png of the slogan for the end of the commercial, this is something I struggled with and still trying to figure out. For some reason, there are just no plain images of the slogan I can put into the video but I do have an idea in mind for the next time I get to finishing up the commercial on how to get that image. So far editing has been really simple and fun, I do love to edit and I'm really glad that I have some knowledge on how to. I'm really excited to see the final product for this commercial, it is so close to being finished and when it is completed I'm hoping to be proud of what I've made. In the meantime, I will put in the extra work to try and think of some other touches I can add to my commercial and figure out the slogan issue.

Final Day of Filming for my Music Video

Image
On the second day of filming, I finished filming all of the storyboard panels for my music video. I have to say that it was not an easy task. I had a lot of time to myself, so I decided to use that time to actually finish everything, but it wasn't easy because it felt like a time crunch even though I was free to do whatever I wanted. There were still a lot of scenes to finish from where I had left off, and I had to refilm some of them because the clips were too blurry for the final product. I also recorded scenes that I would edit into the music video to give it more personality and easter eggs, which sort of fits the theme of my music video anyway. It was also difficult to change costumes because I play both characters and edit myself into it. It's a difficult task, but it's not impossible. But what I did was work on all of the scenes for the first subject and then change into costume to fit into the second subject; the only difficult part was that I might have had to swit...

  - What titles are displayed during the opening sequences? The opening sequence has one title card that starts with the name of the movie, starting off from white to red   - What images are prioritized in the opening sequence? One image that gets prioritized heavily is the phone of Casey Becker. Another thing that gets prioritized is the house such as the doors, the kitchen, the stove. - What connotations do these images carry? The phone shows a mysterious voice that keeps on dialing her. The stranger continuously asks odd questions that begin to get intimidating. The movie uses the phone as a way to scare the viewer as the ringing continues. The movie also displays many parts of the house to make the viewer believe there is a mysterious danger lurking in a place meant to be safe. - How does the film establish a feeling of the genre from the outset? The movie does several things to create a mystery such as by starting a phone call conversation with someone who the viewers hav...

 For my Commerical Project, I will work alone. I think its the best way to go for me because I'm not really trusting of other people because I have no actual clue if they'll do the work or not and in the past I've had lots of issues with people not completing what they're supposed to be doing even with my friends. I can't really rely on others so that's why I'm holding full responsibility for this project. Working alone isn't terrible either, on the bright side I won't have to nudge people into doing their work until they get annoyed with me because I hate being a bother to others as well. Being independent also means this project will be my own unique thoughts without interference. I like working out ideas by myself although critique is necessary I want this project to be my own authentic piece and my own authentic ideas. Having other people's ideas doesn't really make this my own and I may not like what others come up with so I trust myself...
