Production Blog: McDonalds!!

 Hello and welcome to or back to my blog!

In my last blog I talked about what my group members and I did that Sunday when we went to the park. In this blog I will be telling you about what I did last weekend for the music video. 

One of the props needed for the music video was some sort of food. When I got the Annabel’s house the only thing I saw was goldfish but her mom was willing to bring us to McDonalds. When we got to the McDonald’s we went into the drive through. I ordered nuggets and fries because I was hungry and the food used in the video we we’re gonna eat. Her mom offered to get us ice cream so I also asked for a caramel Sunday. The only thing needed for the video was the bag. It just needed to look like there was food in it but we thought might as well get food too.

After getting back to the house I first tried filming the scene where he drops off the food from the inside but the lighting was off. The sun was behind him and because of that it made the scene appear really dark. It was hard to see what was going on so as a group we decided to change it up. We ended up deciding on having our female actress sit on the porch while our male actor came up to her. That’s when the flowers and food came into play.

I was running a little late so after I got dropped off my mom went to a Publix in the area and got some flowers for the scene. It worked out well because my mom got the flowers and Annabel’s mom got the food.

After wrapping up the filming we all ate the food. It was really nice after all the work. Annabel’s sisters came home after that so we shared the food. 

That was all for the filming. I hope you enjoyed and I’ll see you in the next one. Bye!!

Re-Editing

 Hello and welcome to or welcome back to my blog! In todays blog I will be telling you about the process of re-editing for my final task. Two blogs ago I mentioned that my little sister peer reviewed my final task and she gave critiques. Last blog I talked about how we re-filmed the dance scene based off of those critiques. Todays is about the editing ones. My group member Annabel and I re-edited it in class together so that we could both easily incorporate ideas. The first thing I did was fix the choppiness in the beginning. I did that by trying to overlap the sound from each clip. It is a little hard to explain but I cut the audio from one part. Then I deleted the clip from where it came from. Extended the other clip, and added the audio over that part. I think it fixed the choppiness a little and now the scene looks like it runs smoother. Another thing she mentioned was that it needed some background music at the end where "Ava" gets taken because it felt empty. After watc...

Production Blog: Videos

 Hello and welcome to or welcome back to my blog!! In the previous blog I told you about how I added my pictures and what I did to cut down the time. In todays blog I am going to be telling you what I have completed since then. When school ended I went home and started to  work on the commercial. I saved the videos into my favorites folder so that they would be easier to find when I got to this point.  I first started with cheer. I selected the video of me cheering and cut it down to the part where I did my solo. After that I added a couple pictures of me cheering on top so it wouldn’t be as boring. After that I added a blank black screen. That is to help me with transitioning into the next topic. I plan to do a voice over on some of the parts so the screen would help with that too. Next, I repeated the same process, but instead of it being cheer it was my YouTube channel. On the blank screen I added a couple of my YouTube thumbnails. It brought more to the screen and was...
