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 all the projects this was the one I felt like took the least amount of time to do. We had about one week to complete the whole thing. There weren't many challenges in the beginning but most happened during the actual filming process. During the filming process everyone was getting a little impatient and started getting annoyed with each other. That had to do with mics, cameras and teleprompters not working. But in the end it turned out great for never doing this before. From this whole project I learned that doing ONW NOW is harder than it looks. There's also many things done behind the camera that no one sees that takes a lot of hard work and patients. Overall doing this project was really fun and I learned so much that I didn't think I would. It even helped me decide that I want to go to sports next year for ONW NOW. 

Reflection

     This semester in video was very fun and has taught me so much. I got to make cool videos and work with many different people. I think this semester would have gone better if I focused more and managed my time a little bit more. I could also learn how to use the camera and its equipment a little bit more. But I am good at being an editor or a director. Overall video had its ups and downs but I can't wait for next semester. I will manage my time in and out of class better so my projects can be the best that they can be.

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...

Vector

     For this project we had to choose a portrait of a family member, pet or our self and recreate it in Adobe Illustrator. After choosing the picture we wanted we had to put it in Adobe Photoshop first. We cropped the image and posterized it to whatever number you wanted. We had to posterize it to see the different highlights and shadows on our picture.      The hardest part about this project was trying to differentiate all the shadows and highlights on the body. I only did the ones that seemed the most important to me. I decided to really simplify my vector down because tracing every different thing looked weird to me. I think my favorite part about my vector is the eyebrows, eyes and the raven on the front of the outfit. Those really turned out great. Overall I think this is one of my favorite projects so far in graphic design. After finishing this one I wanted to create another vector right away. Just watching it all come together was really co...
