Finishing filming & editing

To finally finish up our music video we headed back out to shoot the last few shots we needed. We first met up at my house to shoot the last shots. The scene was Alejandro (the "loser") meeting up with me ("cool guy") to finally "acknowledge" him as a cool guy. We had the idea to meet up at a "party" so we headed to my garage for the scene location. We both had red cups to make it seem as we were in a party. After finishing that scene our music video was basically completed. The rest of the time we had that day was used to finalize what we needed to in the editing. Now that we have all our scenes we can fill the holes we left in the editing file. We synced up the music with the scenes added on. I added the transitions required to make sense with the rest of the video. I cut the scenes properly to reach the time limit. But we ran into a problem Our music video wouldn't render a good quality at the end of everything. I tried many times to re-render and take out unnecessary access to the music video. I don't know how but after many many repeated tries the video finally rendered in good quality. After w got everything ready we decided to call it a day since we finished everything we needed. Coupe hours after I was re-watching the music video and I noticed some editing errors that desperately needed to be fixed. Thankfully I saved the file incase of a situation like this, i then fixed the issue and in general we had finished the music video project.

Genre Research: Comedy

  My group and I are also researching comedy. As much as we want action, we also need to laugh. A comedy would also be a lot easier for us since we can just be ourselves. Comedy movies have a lot of close- ups, pans, long shots, and zooms. Close ups allow you to lead your audience into a more intimate setting. You can literally bring your audience closer to the action. And it emphasizes the importance of what we see. But as the push continues, it all breaks, letting viewers know they're watching a comedy movie.Long shots  give an overall context to the scene and usually lets viewers know that what we’re seeing right now isn’t the whole picture... until it zooms all the way out. Static shots, or stand still shots, build suspense. In comedy movies it allows room for the characters to correct themselves or something, Almost like a "wait for it" moment. Zooms emphasize expressions shown throughout the film. Props used in comedy films range from nothing to everything- like a t...

   Props Being that our commercial is an Apple Watch commercial, our main prop will be the Apple Watch. However we will also have different color Apple Watch bands as well as props aswell Costumes We have came up with these costumes to flow with the message we are trying to portray of the apple watch within that scene. Therefore, two of us will be exempliying the athletics perks of the Apple Watch, by wearing athletic clothing, to show the health and workout benefits of the watch. Another scene will include one of us wearing a really nice outfit, which may include, but is not limited to a nice shirt, jeans and some nice shows. This will help show the customization part of the watch and how stylist it can be and easy access it can. Basically proving the theory "a phone on your wrist".  Schedule  September 23rd:  Our group researched the codes and conventions of Apple Watch commercials  September 24th:  Our group started to plan the different props we ar...

Film review changes

Image
My group and I worked on our film in class. We talked about what modifications we thought needed to be made before we started. My colleagues and I showed our video to strangers last week. They offered us their feedback on how they liked our film and what modifications they thought should be made once they had seen it. We reviewed which adjustments we could and couldn't change as the group went around discussing what changes they were told to make. Many users claimed that the sound was an issue, and that it was difficult to hear specific parts of the actor or actress. Damaine did his best to improve the volume, but it couldn't be adjusted completely without re-filming everything. The editing was also brought to our attention as a concern. We'd have to fix it because some people thought it looked choppy. Damaine corrected what he could as the rest of the crew and I stood behind him, watching what he was doing. He also edited out certain sections that we thought were unneeded ...
