Music Project




The story we were suggesting was an army going across the ocean on a big ship to go fight in a war. When they get to this foreign country they walk across the land to find the battle grounds. Once they get there they prepare themselves to fight. The two opposing sides have a stare off to decide who will make the first move. One side makes the move and they begin to fight. Then the winning team walks off victoriously. The part I am most proud of is the first 30 seconds.The part of the story that we were trying to suggest during this sequence is when they are on the boat in the middle of the ocean. This helped with the story because it is of boats and the ocean the sky. There were anstract images of the sun shining through clouds.  Our video is a little over 50% of abstract images. W used blue to suggest that it was an emotional time for the army.I learned that abstract images can really tell a story and make it look interesting.I learned that music and images can be combined to tell a different story. My partner edited all of the effects while i gone taking an AP test.I spaced out the story to fit certain parts.

Michaela and Brad Sandbox



We used the twirl effect. It is in the destort folder. We adjusted the angle so it twirled alot.We adjusted the radius a little so that the span was wider. W adjusted the center so the center became wider. I would use this in a film if a character got all psycho.

Jabberwocky stanza 1

The special effect we used best was gradient wipe. This effect worked because it made a scary picture even scarier. W were trying to communicate a dark picture. The idea we were trying to show with the effect and the picture was that this creepy, mystical enviornment is being taken over by something.

Star Promo





Our video should be picked for a lot of reasons. First off the video is very inspirational and helpful on scoring good on the star test and preparing for it. Also it has a lot of helpful tips for the star test. We think our video will be good in showing our school and possibly others that we can do good on the star test.
