Final Cut Movie Opener

  Everything is Perfect     Some changes that were made included adding new clips to broaden out my storyline. In addition, I also added a title and opening credits to my movie and added sound. Lastly, I also cut down from how long each scene was and added a picture at the beginning of my movie for context

Peer Reviews

Film #13 Peer Reviews What specific elements of the film opening did you like? Was there anything that left you confused? (be specific) What suggestions do you have for changes? I like that the opener started out pretty normal with the girl explaining her morning until it reached the part with the goldfish and then it just went downhill. Is the goldfish supposed to be a friend of the girl or is the goldfish her child? Change the dialogue where the girl talks about jogging to walking so it matches the scenes that are shown I like the relatability. I also enjoyed the eating pizza in the bathroom first thing in the morning and also wrapping the goldfish like a baby. It was extremely hard to hear dialogue so I couldn’t tell what the plot was. It took me a second to realize that the cuts to talking to the camera was documentary style. I suggest turning up the audio and trimmin...

Week 7 Editing

I have finished my editing and here are some final thoughts that I have:  I wished I had spent time looking for other candidates that could have filmed my film with me  Filming by myself was hard and easy at the same time  filming by myself was easy because I didn't have to rely on someone else I wished I could have incorporated more clips that could/would have progressed  y storyline: at the end of the day it came down to how much timing and space was available in my 2min film 

Week 6 Editing

While editing my short draft film I forgot to include my video's title in the final drafted piece. But my title's font will be presented in the " Just Breathe" font by kinetic plasma. This font is very childlike and messy, hence representing my comedic short film   For the video effects, I rarely used any effects. The only effects that I mainly used were cut transitions to showcase my character moving from room to room in a smooth ad timely matter. In the future, I definitely want to add some zoom features into my video to create a more cohesive theme  In addition, regarding my audio effects, I haven't added much or any to fit into my comedy film theme. Most of the sound used is "natural" which was already filmed from the regular video. In the future, I want to implement the upbeat and dramatic comedy tone of reality tv shows like keeping up with the Kardashian's have. I spent about 20 minutes editing, I had created a game plan for my video stating h...

Week 5 of filming

Image
 During this week, I had a much successful flow with filming sense everything was already finalized from the issues I had with week four filming and finalization with my theme and ideology of my film.  This is a picture that I took after filming the bathroom scene of my film With this scene I essentially wanted to show the main character who is getting ready for school. This was a full on mirror scene. This might of been the hardest scene I have filmed so far because of how technical it was. I had to set my tripod on the sink and zoom enough that it only showed my face. I also had to make sure the camera wasn't in the scene. Lastly, it was also really hard for me to film it because I wasn't sure if I was looking at the camera or not.  This was the last and final scene that I filmed in the bathroom. With this scene I was going for the same concept but this is the main character, which is me, getting ready and preparing to sleep in her bathroom. Again I had difficultly not ...
