Project Blog

 


I think my group and I did a great job with this commercial. It seems to have turned out pretty well for this being the first project I have done in this Media class. Overall as a group, we also did well with time management and each of us taking care of what we were supposed to in the way that all the work was split. I still believe we could have done some better editing, but we will be on the road to improvement for our next project! Regardless, I am pleased with what I did for my parts in the commercial and very glad that everything went smoothly. Any-who, don’t forget to treat yourself to a nice pack of Twizzlers! -Sarah

Officially done…With filming

Image
  I'm happy to inform that my group and I have finally finished filming our final video project, and the results are nothing short of stunning after weeks of hard work and commitment. This trip, while had its share of difficulties and learning curves, ended with a victory that well above our expectations.This time around, unlike the first time we filmed, everything appeared to go together perfectly. Equipped with a well-defined vision and an astute sense of direction, we skillfully and confidently maneuvered through the filming process. Simplifying our method of filming was one of the biggest changes we made. We had a well thought-out plan in place, so we knew exactly what kind of material and photos we would need to make our story come to life. With so much less time spent filming because to this newfound clarity, we were able to concentrate on capturing true and emotionally charged moments. Even though we were filming at the same park as before, we took a "less is more"...

Allow Me To Introduce Myself

Hi, my name is Sarah Kraja and I'm ecstatic to soon begin this music video. I have some experience with technology since I am always using it, and I used to edit a lot of videos for fun when I was younger. I feel like that will be very helpful for me in this class because there is a lot of recording involved throughout the rest of the year. I always liked editing and filming videos when I was with friends so I have some of the basics down already. I am already in the process of brainstorming ideas for our groups music video because of how thrilling it seems. Now I'll get into some particulars about what I generally do throughout most days in and out of school. When I'm outside of school, I go straight home either on my bus, or my parents pick me up. When I get home, I tidy up some of the main areas around my house or room and then just relax for awhile. I used to fill my days with school volleyball everyday after school, however the season is over for this year. However, I ...
