Personal Introduction

 

Hello! my name is Andy Hernandez-Vazquez and this is my introduction to you on my new blog!
For starters, My interest are exercising, playing video games, and spending time with my family. I am a Sophomore this school year at Fort Lauderdale and also a middle child of my family. I have two sisters, the first is my younger sibling who has recently started going to my old elementary school. My second sister, who graduated from this school, Madelinne, has started her first year in college this year! I love both of them. I also tend to watch a good amount of shows but I mostly watch Anime. A lot of my favorite shows are Animes that I've been binging, my most favorite show being Black Clover. Currently in school, I've made a great amount of friends and also met cool teachers that are chill. My favorite subject would be Comm. Tech II since I'm learning about Premiere Pro this year while my least favorite would have to be chemistry since I am very bad at science. I am in the Cambridge magnet program so I have to work hard in each of my AICE classes in order to receive the necessary points needed to get my AICE diploma by my senior year. I currently have 3 AICE points and also have 10 credits for my high school diploma.

This will be my first time in my whole life using this website for one of my classes. The blogs that I will be posting on here will mostly be related to work done to my AICE Media Studies exam, aka the film that I will be working on this year. My goal for this class is too better understand how films and shows create great effects that viewers become impacted by. I've done many edits for photos, videos, etc. but I want to make and learn how to do better quality in editing. For this first project, I will be working with some of my buddies to make a commercial for the class. The commercial can consist of any product, from sports drinks to shoe brands, all the things that we can, at least, bring to school to film. As of right now, my group is in the stage of thinking about what we want to advertise and how we plan to present the commercial.

This has been my first blog and I am now signing off! Thank you!

Commercial SET!!!

Image
Well, I’ve done it, I’ve finally finished the commercial, along with the help of my group mates.   This was  my first project where I could be creative in my editing skills, adding lots of effects to a commercial.  It took a good chunk of time  and was a bit difficult   to get the scenes and edit the  commercial well enough to be called a commercial. I had fun recording all the scenes my group done, laughing at each mistake we did from each take. I really like how the commercial came out, It looks almost exactly as like me and the other's had thought of making. The hardest part of this project was angling the camera to best put the scene in a good view and also the barrage of people in the background doing their own scenes as well. Editing-wise, it took a good amount of work to make it the most time necessary for the length and I was also able to learn new things like fading in pictures during a video clip. The major mistake in the editing process were the ...

Editing the first sections!

Image
 Previously, I was able to produce some scenes necessary for the film alone due to my group being unavailable at the time. With the help of my sister, we were able to produce scenes that included the protagonist alone and also scenes that required editing processes. While driving back home after the recordings, I was constantly thinking as to how I would edit each scene, what needed to be modified and what effects would need to be added. As we got home, I jumped off my sister's car and quickly went to my room to retrieve the scenes onto my laptop and search for editing effects required to make the sequence pop out. The main source I used to find some edits that would help this sequence was in YouTube. The first thing I was looking for were some fire effects that could be used for a type of explosion. There were a lot of many cool and interesting background effect fires but the one I liked the most had to be from the YouTube Channel Channel Art Background. The fire effect in this cl...

Time to work, at a Fair????

Image
  It was now the time for me and the others in my group to film the scenes for the music video. Although, there was a tiny problem during this time, Thanksgiving break. Because of Thanksgiving break, it would mean that most of my group and I won't be able to interact with each other and means that filming would have to be done separately for a bit of time. I had thought of a scene which included me going on a Ferris Wheel because of my schedule to go to the Broward County Fair this break. Max was able to go to the fair with me and take all the filming scenes needed. The first scene that was filmed at the fair was the beginning of the entrance to the fair. It was somewhat of a pan shot/side shot in which I was facing the entrance to the big fair. The first take was messed up due to the lighting of the background being too dark but was then later fixed. The next take was a great shot that was able to get the scene correct and what I was looking for. The next scene that was filmed w...
