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.

self performance review

Self performance review Project 1 For one of my projects we were assigned to take ten pictures and then put then together to create a panorama. I chose to use pictures that I took of New York over spring break. The project took around a week to complete. I faced a few challenges with my design. It was hard to find somewhere to start because I had a lot goin on in my pictures. I found that the pictures I chose had a lot of buildings so I had to include some other pictures I took from the vacation so I would have a variety of pictures in my panorama. Doing this project I learned a lot about photoshop. With putting multiple pictures together you have to make sure they blend. I started to use the blend tool as I put certain pictures together. Sometimes the blend tool wouldn't work so I would use the clone stamp tool to take parts of a picture and put it on the picture next to it. I was told to so...

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...

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...
