How to create and print a document



For this assignment we had to make a video about how to create and print a document in thirty seconds. We had two parts to this project. Part A was making a story board including sketches of where the scene would take place and what kind of shot we would be filming in. After we got that approved we took the I pad and took pictures using the main points that we had down on our storyboard. After those pictures were taken we made a google slides showing the pictures we took. We also had to list what type of shot it was and what the actor was doing in the shot. Part B was actually making the video.We used every spot that we had pictures of on our story board and google docs except made those shots into a video. So we had to show more of the transitioning which was mostly walking inbetween our shots. After filming day we uploaded our videos to the computers. We used Adobe premiere pro to put the videos together. We had to do a lot of trimming and adjusting the videos to get it thirty seconds but still having enough of each clip to understand the process and get the message through. After that we added audio to the video to make it a little more fun! Then we uploaded the videos to YouTube and showed the class, we got some feed back and had the chance to re edit and make changes to our videos.

The big decisions of the project were split between me and my partner Kaitlyn. When we were creating the story board we would alternate turns creating where the shot would occur and what time of shot we would take. We made sure that we both got a say in the project and it wasn't just one person doing everything. Then we couldn't decide who would film and who would be the actor...so we just flipped a coin! I ended up being the actor, it was really fun! I learned that I had to "finish my scenes" which to me means that I had to make sure I finished the action then stop, and not just stop while my partner was still filming and ruin the scene. That way we didn't have to keep shooting the scene over and over again! We used technical skills by learning how to use the computer and using adobe premire pro on the computer. We used communication by letting each other know what we thought would look good or maybe saying that we wanted to try something different. We used leadership by taking over our role and really doing it great. We used collaboration by sharing ideas we wanted for the project. And we used project management by taking our time but not messing around while doing our project.

If I were to do this project again I would want to film instead of act. Because I feel like I would have learned more about using the camera and filming which is what I want to do. Even though I got to take pictures for the google docs I didn't get the chance to film. Acting in the video was fun, but I would want to video too! I really liked the story board that me and Kaitlyn created! I thought it got the message across without having too much information. So if I were to do this project again I would keep my story board the same. I did learn a lot about the acting portion so I will use everything I learned from that and use it on future projects. I will also use my knowledge of using adobe premiere pro into future projects as well. This project was really fun! Especially because it was our first project in video it was so different. I thought coming in to this class that we were going to have lots of instructions to follow step by step. Which for somethings it's true, but for making the video you really get to create whatever you want! I'm really excited to do all of our upcoming video projects!

movie trailer blog post

movie trailer blog post   the project process When we were assigned this project we were asked to pick a high school movie trailer and make one recreating it. My group and I decided to re create the breakfast club movie trailer. We thought it would be fairly easy because most of the video takes place in a school library and the rest in the school hallways. We had to plan out filming and planning days for the project which is something my group and I didn't do well on. The next step was to story board, we had to go through the whole movie trailer and describe and sketch out each frame. When it was finally time to film it was very close to spring break, we had two days of school left and we planned to film all of our footage in those days. Unfortunately we didn't get much done those days, the footage we did get had actors that dropped out so we couldn't't use any of it. When we came back from break we took around a couple of days to find more actors. The actors we ...

final blog

graphic design final reflection blog One of my favorite parts about graphic design was making the vector illustrator portrait. For this project we had to choose an image of ourselves, a family member, or a family pet. We then had to choose if we wanted to do an organic vector which is tracing the facial features on the objects face or a low poly geometric vector which is when you make lots of different and tiny triable on the subject. I chose to do the low poly geometric because I felt it would look better on my dog. It took me around two weeks to complete this project. I was gone towards the end of the first week, if I wasn't gone I most likely would have finished the project sooner. I faced a few challenges along the way. At the very beginning of the project I didn't know how big to make the triangles. I decided to do small triangles on my dogs features and bigger triangles on my dogs body. Another challenge I faced was having all of my triangles looking very similar whic...

music video blog

Music video blog  When we were assigned this project we were told to pick a song and make a video rein-acting  the original music video. The first step of this project was to pick a group. With working in a group comes teamwork and agreeing on things like the song, dates we were going to film, and assigning jobs in the group. My group originally was going to use the song "Tonge tied" by group love. We decided that we were going to change our song because the music video was in an older house and had a party going on. One of my groups biggest struggles was finding times to film so we decided that we wanted to film our video at school. We finally decided on the song "Congratulations" by post Malone because it took place in a filming studio just like the one we have here at school. The video also had the same "party" theme that the Tonge tied video had so we were somewhat sticking to our original idea.  After we began the beginning process of pic...
