Figuring Out what Software to Use!(first day editing)

    


Today my editing was simple, seeing as the program I am using doesn't take up too much of my energy. I had trouble finding a nice audio but I found one. The editing today was more or less revolving around getting my timing and cut scenes correct. I wanted to do the entire thing in one day but that required way to much energy so instead I kind of just did half. I think my commercial will give off pretty cinematic vibes and will wow the watchers. My video revolves around a water bottle so for my commercial to be "cinematic" its kind of cool. I wasn't sure if the software I use to edit on should be different but I realized people pay a lot of money to make edit on apps like Final cut pro, and after effects, when they could use stuff like Capcut or Funimate for free. By the way, I guess since my computer doesn't recognize the names of the software, it's putting a red line underneath them but I added them to dictionary so go me! Lol, but back on topic, I don't want people to think I'm dumbing down my project by using the software I'm using because I am definitely not. I take this project seriously because I absolutely love assignments and projects like this, but I also want everyone else to know that. I know that it isn't about what other people think but I am getting this graded by a teacher so it is kind of about what other people think. At the end of the day I am pretty confident in my ability to film a good project. By the way this is sooo off topic, but while editing I got a notification that my physical form to run track got approved, which I am really excited for. Speaking of off topic stuff, this blog is supposed to surround Aice media studies but I get like really antsy and it makes me want to speak about other stuff that happens in my day but when I try to write a real diary it doesn't go well. It is very confusing. I think the one thing that I am excited for is to see how my project comes out, and the reaction of my teacher watching it. Although I probably wont see it. I just had a thought, what if I were to do my editing on iMovie? I once made a commercial for my middle school, and It was nice. It wasn't something that my middle school would put out for the public eye, but people still loved it. Even the teachers liked it but I still didn't give anyone access to it. I honestly did forget how to use the software but that doesn't matter cause I still do have Capcut.

 I really got to work on my blogging. It is very dumb how I keep slacking off from trying to get these blogs done. I also remembered that you’re not supposed to use the word “we” while blogging and that made me so mad. I used the word “we” so many times. I fail to keep you guys updated on this journey, that would be bad. I would cry myself to sleep. But yeah, filming has been pretty delayed and I’ve been trying to get some things together. I mean I already messed up on the filming process the first time and the second time and right now David and I are on the third time and just trying to get it done. By the way while typing this I use the word “we” three times and had to go back and delete it. It’s so crazy how I was just talking about having a trouble with using that word and then I used it while explaining the fact that I use it when I should not. I Set myself at a limit of at least 20 sentences for blog to entertain the audience. I really hate that I sent myself and it’s so har...

First filming day blog

 Today I started my filming for my water bottle commercial. I feel really confident in my project and I do think that it's going to do well. The person I was filming with was very cooperative and shared a lot of the same creative differences. I am working alone but I did need someone to film, so I asked my closest friend who happens to run track. The sun was hot but my clips were nice. I used some props from the shed out on the field so that I can have a nice video. My main prop was a water bottle but I had the blocks, and some spikes. I also had a sports bag to carry the spikes in and they were really nice. I couldn't  be happier with my project and I hope it turns out nicely and that I can edit this to the best of my ability. I was lucky to run into coach Martin to let me get into the shed and use the blocks because if he didn't, I would've been pissed. Thankfully we got into the shed though. The person that I was working with was really into my directing skills, whic...

The Motion of The Film

The process of the short film titled "A happy ending" or filming any film would need things like a location, props, actors, health and safety, costumes, a schedule and of course a backup plan. Schedule- As for schedule, we are still working on it. we wanted to finalize all filming and wrap up editing by the end of spring break so that when come time to turn in the short film, we are more than prepared. Location-For Location, we were thinking of filming in thee standard places. A supermarket(Publix), Nyla's house, a parking lot at Nyla's house, an a park with pretty lights. There will probably be other places like down the street but those will all be scenes leading up to arriving at those specific Locations. We plan on utilizing each location at different times of the day seeing as we want o use the lighting to help represent the characters emotion Participants- As of right now, our participants consist of Nyla, David, Nyla's mom, and Rashell. Of course David and ...
