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 picking a song and idea we had to get everything ready for the video. My job as art director I had to choose all of the props we would be using in our video. It was fairly easy because we were rein-acting the video so we had to use very similar if not the same props. In the video they had a dog, a tv, a bat, champagne, party hats, confetti, and some illegal substances. So we had to substitute the tv for a piñata and hit it with a stick instead of a bat. We brought in sparkling cider instead of champagne and lollipops instead of the illegal substance. We used confetti, a dog, and party hats in our video. After the props were ready we had to set dates to film. Between me and my other partners we only had two days that we would all be there on the set filming days on the calendar. We used those two days to film as much as we could, one of the days was a block day so we had enough time to film our extras and all of their scenes. We had to film scenes of Morgan on one of the editing days because we ran out of time but we ended up getting everything filmed. 


After filming came the editing of the video. Editing the video was easier than any other video before because we had a video to look off of and copy it. The first thing I had to do was sort through all of the clips and delete all of the bloopers and keep all of the clips I would be using. The second step was to put all of the clips in order and add them to the song. The only other thing that was different was that I had to add credits to the video because of copyright. The only problem I ran into was having the lip-syncing match up with the song. There were a few clips where the actor sung too fast or too slow so it didn't match up and I would have to put b roll over it.

ball animations

The project  We did three animations with a bouncing ball. For all of the animations we used photoshop. For the first animation we made grass using a grass tool and made different variations of the grass to make it look realistic. Next we used the circle tool to make a ball. Then we created a time line, which is how you make the ball move. You have to make multiple slides, on each slide you move the ball farther and farther. In the first one the ball was going up in down so I made the ball go from the top of the screen to the bottom. Then to make it bounce up I had to add more slides and fix the transparency. For the second one we had to make the ball bounce in an arc two times. I did the same thing as before with the grass, and with the slides except instead of going down and up the ball went in an arc. For the third one we could do whatever we want so like the second one I had my ball bounce twice then I had it go in a loop for the last part, I did that by adding more slides. ...

Making your own website

The Project This past week in e-Comm we had to make our own website. We used the program dreamweaver while doing this project. To get through the project we watched videos on google classroom that mr. Olsen had made. For our website we had a home page, a project page, and we had to include a side bar with links to the school, e-Comm, and our blog page. For the home page we made an elevator pitch , which is basically just talking about our best qualities. For our project t page we had to put some of our projects we have done in e-Comm so far. I chose two projects from graphic design and another two from animation. We also had to include the blog posts that went along with these four projects.  What I learned I learned a lot while doing this project. We learned how to use a new program dreamweaver, all of the different tools and their functions. There were a lot of pieaces that went along with dreamweaver, compared to photoshop and other programs we have used in the past...

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 seco...
