Editing Blog - Getting things right


 
After all of my scenes were aligned and in order where they needed to be. I began trimming and cutting the sound in each scene. I cut the sound from each scene because I wanted to add a voiceover in my commercial. But before I added in the voiceover, I cut down each scene in the way I felt was right. For example, in the first scene I cut out the first half. This was done because it eventually made the whole commercial longer then needed. In the second scene, with the movement of an up close tilt at a canted angle. I also slowed down the speed to give a small dramatic effect. After this scene I added a transition. This transition captured the end of scene two and the beginning of scene three. Between the third, fourth, and fifth scene, I didn't do much editing other than trimming the scenes down. Just as the first scene, in the last scene I had to cut out the first halve. It seemed unnecessary to be in the commercial. Although I trimmed the first halve out. In the second halve I slowed down the speed of the scene. To capture the whole shot of the pan video. While doing this I also added a fade out transition to signify the ending of the commercial. After all the editing I was able to add in the voiceover. The editing app that I used provided different sets of voices and all I had to do was type up what I wanted it to say. Editing is still something new to me but with this project it helped with my editing skills.

Research blog: Music Video Conventions

I am doing a one minute music video to the song You've got a friend in me by Randy Newman. As stated in my introduction this is the theme song to the movie Toy Story. The audience that would be most interested in this commercial are people that enjoy Disney movies. Such as family friendly people, children, young adults, adults, the elderly and everyone in between. When I first watched Toy story, I believe it was in the cafeteria of my elementary school and I loved it. There are many productions for instance Toy Story 1, 2, 3, and 4. And in each production the song You've got a friend in me is played as a ritual. When people automatically hear this song they usually assume on the spot Toy Story. This is a friendly and comforting number because this song is interpreting that having a friend that is there for you is superior. In the words of Jim's Poetry, "Your friend will help you and guide you through life when there are tough times. That you will be friends no matter w...

Genre Research: Drama

  In this PowerPoint, I described the genre drama. I provided everything common about drama in this PowerPoint. Such as lighting, angles, movement, mis-en-scene and sound. Mis-en-scene means placing on stage in French. Which provides costumes, lighting, acting, makeup, props, and setting. In this PowerPoint I did not work alone. I had a partner and we did amazing with this assignment. We also added in our favorite elements of drama and our least favorite. There are examples of some good drama films included. The elements of drama are the plot, theme, characters etc. These make a drama film good. If one of these elements are missing, it could ruin the film of being a drama film. Drama is a complex genre and is my favorite. It can contain comedy, horror, thrill, action etc. I believe it will forever be great. I think it is possible to prove that there is some type of drama in every film. It can be as little as a penny to as big as the statue of liberty. Drama is a dynamic that cannot...
