Thinking about Our Final Values Video

Michaela and Cole

Positive Comments
We especially like the close up shots of Michaela and Chris because it helped reflect the reactions and the feelings of the characters.
-Ashley T. and Michaela C.

We liked this comment because we like our close ups and thought that they fit well.

We really liked the close up of the chew, because it helped emphasize the idea that they were going to chew the stuff.
- Kelsey and Kaycee

We liked this comment because it was something we planned and weren’t too sure about. But we’re glad it worked and that people liked it.

The first music came in right in the beginning and it was intense.
-Isaiah and Caesar

We especially like the extreme close up of the dip because it helped emphasize the idea that what they were doing was wrong.
-Jake and Alex

You could have had them meet up with Michaela and them smiling or some form of acknowledgement that they're good friends not trying to do anything wrong.
-John and Joselyn

we especially like medium shot that showed all of the students with the can of chew.
-Jacob and Morgan

Suggestions

You could have had them meet up with Michaela and them smiling or some form of acknowledgement that they're good friends not trying to do anything wrong.
-John and Joselyn

We liked this suggestion because it was something that we may have been able to do at some point. We also agree that this would improve our resolution.

Possibly make those go a little slower so that people can read it.
-Ashley T. and Michaela C.

You can add to the resolution by showing what happens when the students go back to class.-Jacob and Morgan

We liked this suggestion because we had thought about doing this but thought our video would be too long. If we could we would definitely add this.

you could make the sound louder so that you could hear the dialogue better. –Jake and Alex

Reflection of Rough Draft

The value that we are trying to represent is courage. I think what are group did well is make a good script and present our value well. Something we still need to complete is adding more close ups of all the characters to add more personality to them. ANother thing i think that we need to do is add more shots of us getting over to the ally. We want to know if the music really makes sense with the video. We were wondering if the camera angle worked when we did a close up of me. A challenge our group faced in creating the video was finding music. When we came to the end of editing we were still looking for music. It was hard because our group was split on what we were looking for.The boys had this idea that we should have some hard rock, screamo music, which didnt make any sense to me. I thouhgt that we should have music from a silent film, since we dont talk in the part where we were putting music. We were both looking the whole class. Then i found music that i thought would fit perfectly. I downloaded it, added it, and then made it fit in the video. It looked and sounded great. Then the boys found a song that they liked better, even though i didnt really like it or think that it fit. They put it in the video at the end of class. Then when i was gone they voted and that was the video that they uploaded. So i guess thats what we ultimitly did to address it.

Over The Shoulder Exercise

Our group didn't do that much planning because we thought it was pretty standard. After, we realized that we should have planned more becasue we forgot to do the reaction shot. If we would have planned before we could have planned decided to do that shot last. We did not follow the rule of thirds very well because we forgot that we had to use it. Our shots were all centered. The impressions that the over the shoulder shots create about the charcter is that you can see all of the person who is talking. You can also see exactly what the person is seeing. The dialogue seems pretty realistic in the final edit. A challenge we faced while editing was ending the clip right before the person looked down. There is no dominant tone of the video because the to characters have different moods throughout the video. The mood for the girl is annoied becasuee she just wants to know the amount of money. The mood for the guy is ammused because he thinks it is funny to mess with her. An observation i have about the over the shoulder shot is that it is cool to see the point of view.

Title Workshop3

This is an example of a template title, which means you use a title that the computer has already created. You might use this kind of title when you want a fancy title.

Title Workshop2

This is an example of a lower third title, which means the title is in the bottom right corner of the clip. You might use this kind of title when you want to put information about a clip, on the clip.

Title Workshop

This is an example of an custom, full screen title, which means you edit it yourself and it takes up the whole screen. You might use this kind of title when you start your video.

Lifting and Extracting

A simple cut in the timeline means to delete a clip from the timeline. When you cut, the other clips in the timeline stay where they are.
A ripple edit is when you delete a clip but the remaining clips shift together. You do this by right clicking the clip and choosing ripple edit. When you ripple edit, the other clips to the right of the deleted clip, shift to the left.
Lifting and extracting are two ways to cut out a clip at one time. To do this, you right click the clip and choose which one you wznt to do.
Lifting is like taking it away, while extracting is like replacing it, in terms of what happens to the other clips in the timeline.
This is an example of a ripple edit. I decided to ripple edit the two clips where I did because it made it appear to have continuos jumping.

Insert1Andrade

This is an example of insert edit. An insert edit places a clip between a pre-exsisting clip. To do this you drag the clip frrom the source panel to the timeline, and seperate the two clips so that you don't record over. I decided to insert the 2nd clip where i did because it is inbetween the two jumps. This makes the girl look more interested in the horse jumping.

The difference between an overlay and an insert and an insert edit is that in an overlay you have record over the exsisting clip, and in an insert you make room for the 2nd clip. You would use an overlay when you want to take out record over one clip, while you'd use an insert edit when you want to put a new clip in the middle of an old clip. In this case the overlay edit works better because the first clip finishes after the second clip plays. I think that it flows together better.

Overlay1Andrade

This is an example of overlay edit. An overlay edit places a clip ontop of an exsisting clip. To do this, you drag a clip from the source panel to the timeline, and place it over an exsisting clip. I decided to overlay the 2nd clip where i did because it makes it look like the girl is watching the the horse go over his second jump. This effect is cool because it shows the horse clear its first jump, then it shows the girl looking and smiling, next it shows the horse after it finishes its second jump.

Baler Interviews

I think I am getting better at finding good in and out points, and editing the video correctly. In my last video I was talking during my title. This time I made sure that this didnt happen. I did a good job of putting the vidoes in a good order. I'm happy with the way I executed the prject because I did it in a timely manner. I should have picked the right format before I started working on the video. Because we chose the wrong format, the clips are small and in the center of the screen, instead of being in full screen like it should be. If i could do this project over, I would make sure I pick the right format so that the video is in full screen. On my next project I would like to learn how to corrctly set up the format so that this mistake is not made again. One way I helped my partner was when he was gone I got the video done. My partner helped me by exporting the video and uploading it on to youtube, which I did not know how to do. On this project I gained a better idea about how to set the in and out points. What helped me figure this out was to not cut people out while they were talking. One challenge we faced was not picking the correct format. We never overcame this because it was too late to change it.
