Music Video




The song my group chose was Telephone by Lady Gaga. We chose this song because she talks about how she's having fun without the guy being with her, and how she is doing fine without him. Our music video was supposed to portray the same thing. The video shows this girl crying over a break up and her friends are comforting her and making her feel better. We wanted to show that things get better after a break up and sometimes you just need your friends to find your happiness again.

Pre-Production

First we assigned roles, we each had a part to play when it came to the music video. Our original plan was to go to different stores and have her shop around, but none of the stores were going to let us film so we had to change the location of the film. I was the location scout so I was really happy when we figured out a place to film. Then we decided to get an actress, she was a friend of one of our group members so it was easy to find an actress. We also story boarded and we filmscaped our video and once those were done we began to film.

Production

We filmed for four hours straight on a Saturday morning. I learned that it is really easy to get off task and that someone has to keep the group in check. So I took it upon myself to keep the group in check everytime we got off topic. We had no problems when we were filming everything went smoothly when we were filming. We used all of our skills to properly use the camera, convey our ideas and thoughts, and we all \ used leadership to create this music video.

Post Production

We realized after we were done filming we did not take the music video seriously enough. We did not have a very prominent styrene in our video so it was hard to compose a video with a storyline in it. Besides the fact that we didn't really have a story editing the video was fairly simple. If I could change something I would change the way we handled it and make the video more mature. I will use this as a learning experience to try a little harder next time. Overall I thought this project was really fun though I had a good time.

Fourth Quarter Presentations

Where have I been? Hello! For the past few weeks I have been working on a project for e-Communications. I have been working with a group of four people to create a product that can be useful to the public. Our tea name was Company Incorporated and our product was the magic pack. We created some coupons and graphics and this will be at the bottom of this blog. How well did our Team work together? Our team worked together really well. We got things done on time and sometimes even a little bit early. The team was really good at deciding on things and making sure everything was fair. Everyone did their part. If one person needed help then they could ask for help and receive it almost immediately. We all were very good a solving problems. For example we had a small dispute over the 2D animation and it was resolved really quickly, because he had a good system for soling problems. Majority rules. It worked every time plus we had an odd number so we never ran into any problems regardi...

Final Blog

Our Final Project in e-Comm Our final project this year was a group project. We had to come up with a product, and make up graphics and a website to go along with it. Then once we had done that we had to present our product and the website to other students in second hour e-Comm in a shark tank fashion. This project took an entire quarter. It took so long because we had around one week to do certain parts of the project. We spent the most amount of time working on our graphics for our company and our website. While working on the graphics we ran into some problems. Our team disagreed on the way the website graphics should look, we had to make many comprimises. Along the way I learned that you really need to listen to other peoples ideas, others ideas can really help make the content stronger an more visually appealing. My team got really good feedback, everyone said it was put together very well and it was really interesting. We had to change many things on our website and that is w...

Multiplane Animation

Image
Creating My Animation The first thing we did when creating this animation was create a very long template in photoshop. Then we divided it into four sections. Each section was a different layer and each layer had to be different than the others. This was really difficult for me. The trees were very hard to make and they took a lot of time to copy and paste then and then merge then all onto one layer. I didn't like how the trees turned out. Animating the plane Before we animated we watched videos on how multi plane animation works. We watched videos on how they used to do it back in the day. I think it was really cool but it also took really long. Anyways after I created the base in photoshop I began to animate it in After effects. I did not really learn anything new. But it was really easy to animate. Overall  I think this was not my best project. I do not like the color scheme I think its too dark and gloomy. I also do not like the style. I also messed up the anim...
