Production Blog

 Hey Blog! I know its been a while since have heard from me! I have been working with my group to formulate this music video, and we have pretty much figured everything out to begin recording. To film the video, we want to use CapCut. I recently used CapCut in my production of my commercial about me, so I am familiar with the software. My group mates, as well, are familiar, as they have used this editing software before too. The app has a good reputation, and is fairly easy to use. We will use this app because of its easily accessible and manageable. Whether we will have dedicated editors, or everyone, is undecided. All I know is, I would enjoy being able to edit the music video. I like to believe I have somewhat of some more experience with navigating and working the app, than my other group mates. I want to edit as we

When It comes to filming, we will need to come to a time to meet with everyone. This may be hard because of our distance of housing, and schedules outside of school. I would like to get started filming later this week, however. I want to be able to start filming to then see what we will need to re-record and possibly edit. I don't want to wait too long, because then plans may have to change and I don't want anyone to be inconvenienced in any way. Where we are filming is pretty much decided. Our music video is about one moving from area to another. So, I figured that we can have 2 set locations ( 2 different houses). One of these houses will be one of ours, and the other will be a friends' house. We want to be able to show these different houses, to create the idea of moving into a new place. Obviously, we will need permission of the friends house before we are able to record. It would be quite funny if you saw a music video take place in your house, and you had no idea! Most of the filming will take place in the houses, and in the street recording the car driving. I am also decent when it comes to filming as well. My phone has a feature for cinematic mode, which creates the illusion for a movie type recording. If i were to film on my phone, I would be able to provide good quality, and make the video more visually appealing. However, the specific jobs are still up for discussion with my group.

Anyway, thank you blog for tuning in.. once again! Hope you enjoy your lovely night! Till next time. 

xoxo, Marissa

Production Blog: Editing

Image
 Hello Blog! I'm back, and this time with more progress on the editing of our opening sequence. Kylee, our dedicated editor decided it would be best to split up the project to work into sections. It made a lot of sense to Hailey and I. In a sense that it would initially help the editing process run more efficiently. And if anything were to go wrong anyway, we had the project shared, and were able to collaborate right in the moment. The idea of splitting sections also allowed involvement from all group members in one aspect or another. Kylee was quick about her selected section. She claimed to edit the ending scenes because she enjoyed them most. She said watching it was intruiging, and it would be the enjoyable to edit. We didn't compete nor complain with her pick, because she was the initial editor. So, it was kind of what kylee wants, kylee gets, type of situation! LOL. We seperated our planning into 3 different days. In which we would complete different tasks. Day 1, we work...

Reflection

 Hey blog! Its Marissa again here, and I am officially done with my commercial! I hope it was entertaining to watch. I am here to reflect on the experience and creation of the video. I first started off with the technological device of a Ipad. I chose the Ipad because its not as big as a computer, has many features, and has editing software other computers may not have. I used the editing software of Cap cut to then publish my commercial. I did actually have my phone, to select pictures from my camera roll and send videos as well. I chose my Ipad not only because of the ease of maneuvering it, but because I have alot of storage on my Ipad. After downloading capcut on my Ipad, I explored this app and was able to find my way around it, implementing photos and videos to then make my commercial. During the process of putting the commercial I would like to believe I learned alot. I learned to not only edit, but the steps it takes to publish a proper commercial. This commercial showed me...

Production Blog : Music

Image
 Hello blog I'm back! Each time we talk, the closer we are to sharing our opening sequence. It is all coming together piece by piece. The next step into our project, was selecting our music. My teacher informed the class that we either had the chance of using owned music or audios off of royalty free music. However, with owned music, you must contact the company or actual owners to be granted permission to use their sound. We would have to receive an email stating the confirmation before we were able to continue with our project. After me and my groupmates discussed, we decided that we don't know how long we'd have to wait to hear back or if they would charge anything. We were only hesitant about royalty free music because the sound choices would be on the generic side. There was a chance of others having either similar, or the same song choices for their opening sequences or movies already out there.  However, it was all going to work out! Royalty free music was copyright ...
