Comparing Le Jetee, The Short, and 12 Monkeys, The Full-Length Movie

 Part 1

    My takeaway from the video starts from the tittle. I didn't know either of the two titles nor that the 12 Monkeys was a remake of it. I also learned that the original "Le Jetee" was just black and while photos and music but when watching it that commentary made it come to life. However on top of the man speaking from the video I felt like I couldn't take in the whole thing. This will help with my short film because I was originally just going to have dialogue and a little bit of music here and there but after watching this I realized the importance of music and the impact it makes on what you're watching.


Part 2

    My takeaway from the article was that it was a deeper dive then the video from the pervious link. I was able to better understand what I learned from the video with the words now in front of me. Information I gathered while reading it was that narration can help tell the story in an imaginative manner. I think this article can help me in my short film process because through the article I saw how I can and need to make sure that my story line flows in a way that makes sense.

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...
