Time to work, at a Fair????


 

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 was the wait for the Ferris Wheel ride in which I needed to pose for a part of the film. For this scene, there was a backshot of me facing toward the Ferris wheel, ready to get on it. The scene didn’t take long to be filmed with it only being shot once and had been done well. Now it was time for me to get on the ride in order to get the next scene done. Maximus was filming at the time so he would be in front of me to get the camera view. In this scene, I would be put in a front view in which it would be a depressing scene with me just being lonely. There were many times that the wind had messed up the takes and also lighting from the whole fair affecting the camera lighting, but after awhile, the scene had finally been filmed.

For most of these scenes, there would have to be more work done on the editing part in which effects would bring more personality to the music video. Scenes such as the Ferris Wheel ride will need to be edited in a way that the visuals are more seen to the viewers. After all the recording was done, I started to relax afterwards and then go ahead and ride the many rides that the Broward County Fair had to offer.

This has been my blog, thanks for sticking by!

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...
