ONW Interview


     For this video project we had to interview someone from our class about something they do in their life. The very first thing we had to do was chose a subject. My group and I chose Drew Swecki, he was apart of this years Raven Pride Marching Band. After we chose the main subject we had to chose another person who knows Drew and is somehow connected to what he is involved in. The second subject was Mr. Carter who is Drew's instructor for front ensemble. After we figured out who we were interviewing we came up with 21 questions for both of them. Coming up with 21 questions about something you don't know much about was very hard. So Jaden Brown, who was also a member of the Raven Pride Marching Band, came up with most of the questions.

     When we were done coming up with questions we then scouted out locations. We were going to film Drew in the band room but the scenery wasn't very good. We also had to film him about 3 times because no one knew how to work the mic at first and then the second time the mic wasn't on. For the final time we filmed Drew in the e-Comm break room. By the time we interviewed Mr. Carter it was really easy. We only filmed him once, in one of the teacher break rooms, and knew how to work all the equipment.

     Michael Decker filmed the b-roll for our group but unfortunately we couldn't use it. So instead we just used previous band competition clips from online this year. For more b-roll Ava filmed the trophies that the band had one and the band wall.

     While editing putting all the clips together wasn't very hard. I kind of already knew what I wanted to do.

Video Final

News Story        For this project we had to create a story about someone in our class that is involved with something that is connected to ONW. My team and I chose Drew who was on the Raven Pride Marching Band. This project took about 3 weeks to complete. The most challenging part about this project was Drew's interview. We had to reschedule about 3 times because we couldn't get the mic to work. The third time we shot the interview, with Drew, we didn't get to use a mic because they were all taken. After showing the video to the class I received some good feedback. I needed to turn up the volume on some parts and make sure to adjust the rule of thirds on some clips. Some positive feedback I received was the b roll was pretty good. This project was really fun and this is why I decided to share it for my semester final. ONW NOW      For our final semester project the sophomores in video had to make our own version of ONW NOW. Out of a...

Semester 2- Video

Music Video      My group decided to recreate High School Musical 2's, Bet On It, music video. The first thing we decided on was who was playing Troy in the music video. We had a perfect match and it was one of our own team members, Alex Pauli. After pre-production we were ready to film. The filming process was a little hard. My group wasn't very smart for choosing a music video set outdoors in the summer time when it was the middle of January and February. My main role in the filming process was teaching Alex the dance moves and helping with certain shots in the video. The shots for this video were not that difficult. Most of them were regular shots we could shoot on a tripod but sometimes we had to hold it to pan with Alex. Overall I thought this project was really fun. The team that I was with worked well together and we had some fun while creating this music video. If I were to do this again I would pick a different music video just because of the weather. Even th...

Typograpghy

     For this project we worked in Adobe Illustrator to create different quotes. The first thing we did was look online for 10 different quotes that stood out to us. Next we had to look at fonts to see which ones we wanted to use for our quotes. I didn't know what to pick at first because so many of them were similar, weird or just not right for the quote. I ended up choosing a lot of cursive fonts because they were really cute to me.       The first thing I did was write out the quotes I liked in a random font. After that I began to move the words around and choose the fonts for each one. Next I began to add color to the quotes and things in the background.  Overall I enjoyed this project. It was actually harder than I thought it was going to be. Deciding on what to do for each quote was the hard part for me. If I were to do this project again I would work on filling up the artboard space more.
