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!

On the first day we got our teams and started thinking of ideas that we could draw that would symbolize each one of us. But the symbols had to sort of have the same theme throughout the drawing. So we each came up with four ideas that we could use. Some were similar and some not at all. For my symbols I chose a red rose which means promise, a sun which I think means happy, a tree for nature, hearts for love, and an American flag for USA. To be similar we all tried to do nature related things but like I said before some were a little off topic. On day two our groups started sketching the things we wanted to draw on paper. Some things that people chose they didn't like anymore so they changes some symbols. What I did is I had a few symbols from the day before and I added some so that I could fill all of my space up. I We also had to decide how we were going to draw all of our symbols on the ground. We wanted to be able to tell that we all had different ideas so we divided our sq...

ab sequence

In this project we learned even more about using the six shots while filming. This video could be longer than the video we filmed for the creating a document, so we had a lot more time. Since we had more time we had to switch our angle of the shot more often. Because if you watched a video and all the shots were taken at the same angle it would be boring. In this project we had our character going all over the place where in the other one our character was only in the library. So we had more action in this video which was much more fun to film! When me and my other three partners were brainstorming and sketching for this project we had so many ideas that it was hard to narrow it down to one big idea! The first and biggest thing we had to figure out was where our characters would end up. Because we didn't want to be on one side of the school then have to find enough stopping points to get to the other side of the school and still have the viewer know where we were going.  We edi...

typography anatomy

Typography project   The project We did this project so we could learn about different fonts and how there are heights for certain parts of the letters. Also that parts of the letters are called something specific, they don't just have the basic shape that you think they would have. We also learned how to make dashed lines and arrows on illustrator so that you could really see what part was where. What we learned We learned a lot during this project, most of it I stated in the paragraph above. But these specific things I really had to focus on because they were things that were apart of my name. These things are a bowl, crossbar, aperture, descender, shoulder, diagonal stroke, counter, finial, stem, and a serif. These were all things used to identify parts of my letters when using this font. We also learned about  the sizing of letters like uppercase, x height, and the base line. Those are three heights that my letters hit. How was the project  The project ove...
