Self-Portrait Artist Statement

            This week I worked on my self portrait video, I used making my favorite snack as 
a  way to represent myself. I wanted to show others what I like to do and make in my free time. I liked seeing the musical videos because I love the sound of instruments and it inspires me to learn how to to play an instrument. I could tell they spent a lot of time on their skills and it payed off. 

 I had a hard time with my video I started out with a video of me playing soccer but I realized that 2 minutes was longer than I thought so I changed my mind and did a video of me making a snack. I had my sister film and we turned on music, had good lighting, and did some panning. I picked to do these features because they make the video look good and professional. The video shows people what I like to do in my free time. 

 I hope the viewers don't only learn how to make a yummy snack but also learn some of the panning techniques.I felt like my video wasn't my best work but the fact that I couldn't edit it makes me feel better about it. I faced some challenges with filming, I had to change my plan multiple times and it took me a hour to get the 2 minute video. I overcame these problems by trying to find different angles and ways to film this video to see what works best. The thing I like most about my video is it looks like a cooking video you find on youtube, next time I will fix the panning a little and the things I said in the video. I learned different techniques in the process of making this video and I can't wait to use them this year in E-comm.

                                                                 Ella Interview This week my group has been working on an interview project. We chose to do an interview on Ella who is a dancer in our class. We started the project by making questions to ask Ella, once we finished that we scouted an area to do the interview at. The nest day we asked Ella the questions and the interview began. After we finished the interview we went out and filmed broll to put in the video. Finally, after we had all our video we began working in Premiere Pro to work on the video. I had to change some of the lighting and audio to make the video flow, I also had to make a voice over.          I was the director so I was in charge of the video and i kept everyone on task and I helped film the broll. I learned to st...

                                        Video Production Final Blog ONW NOW News Story This week we worked on a news story for ONW NOW, this was our last video for the semester. This video took us about a week to do but with some set backs it took us a little over a week to finish.    We decided to film Mr. Zuck to ask about his opinion about the laptops. We had to reschedule 2 times so that threw us off track but those days we spent filming broll. Once we got an appointment we began by asking Mr. Zuck the questions we wrote about the laptops. I learned that sometimes you plans won't work out how its suppose to so we need to have plenty of back up plans to assure that we will have our film for the video. My teacher had some feedback for us that we need to have a strong back up plan so we aren't rushing to finish in the end. The original video we were planning on...
