                   This project I worked on an interview and my group and I chose to do the interview
on my cousin and a senior baseball player at ONW, Brady Slavens. We started this story by making questions to ask Brady and decide what the story is going to be about. I was assigned to be the story maker and I also scheduled the times to film the interview. The first time we tried to film the video the camera wasn't working so we had to reschedule and we had to do that a few times. Once we finally got the footage, I went out and got broll for the video from family members and watching baseball games. Since we were behind in the filming part we only had a day to edit but I ended up getting it done on time.
I was the director of the interview and I did the story and I scheduled times to film. I learned that no everything happens the way you think it is so you need to have a lot of backup options so that you don't run out of time. I learned that sometimes there are setbacks but you have to find ways to figure it out.
I went into this interview a little more experience than the last one and I think that I improved from the last interview because I learned from the last project. If I could change on thing I would have tried to have better time management with the project and have some back up plans.
I learned a lot about time management from this project and that will help me in my future projects.

                                                                 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...
