wrestler video review

This video/interview was all about a teenage girl who wrestles and power lifts. Her family is very active in power lifting also and encourage her through her hobby. A few men wrestlers are interviewed in this video and it takes their opinion on what they think of a female wrestler. This video shows very nice shot composition, and some mid shots that don't have particular shots, but are nicely placed in general. This entire story was shot in a video, and was all about the teens life, how her daily routine goes, and what she does to work out and competition. On my own projects, I would use the type of shots produced in the video, and I would use the different types of close ups. I already knew how to make a half medium shot, and I saw it used in the video. The video creator did a very good job at close ups, and shot sequence. The creator could improve on using less shots that are not involved in the subject of the video (less extra shots).  

What is graphic design

Graphic design: Natural art, ideas, concepts, layouts, designs, a way of expressing yourself through visual art. Graphic design can be found anywhere in the world, at any building, box, or piece of merchandise. Clothing designers use design to create cool looks that satisfy the interests of people. Graphic design is full of elements that appeal to the eye and make us want to see more, but also make us want to create some ourselves.

Graphic design is used in many professions making it a great job to have if you're successful, but can be a great fall back as a hobby and secondary career.

e-Comm final reflection

In my group, we tried to sell a toothbrush that plays music when you brush your teeth. We tried to show how someone now is happy to brush his teeth after he never wants to do it. We made sure that our video, animation, and graphics were all done in time to present the product. The video focuses on showing how the toothbrush can appeal to people of all ages. The program used to edit this video was Final Cut Pro, and it taught me to professionally edit my videos to make them better and more appealing.  

In the Graphic Design rotation, I was one of the graphic designers, and I created the coupon. The coupon used CARP, which is a design tool that allows you to design products evenly, and align them so that they are evenly spaced along the product. The coupon incorporated our color scheme of purple and white, along with the company logo, and the banner. I also helped add ideas to the website, and i approved the banner and the advertisement for the product.  

During the Animation rotation, I was the creator of the background for the product. I created a typical bathroom setting that a toothbrush would be found in, and in the screen shot that is shown above, I put in the sink and the product in its packaging into the screenshot since this is the only thing that means anything in the animation. The only problem i had with the animation is that I was gone on the last day of the animation rotation, so I couldn't put the product and packaging in the setting, but we were able to fix it.

My team worked very well together, and we had fun having to work on everything. At the very end of the year when we presented we could have prepared more, and put more effort in, but we made it all work out.

final commercial

My group's final project was a bandwagon type project, trying to make you feel as if everyone has my product, and that you will want to buy it too. Our product name is DubFresh and it is a version of Tooth Tunes, except it's for teens. You are able to load your own music into the toothbrush and you can jam out while you brush your teeth. The concept of this commercial was that a teenager (me) was in his room and hadn't brushed his teeth yet. When he is asked why he hasn't, it's because it's too boring. He is tossed the toothbrush and runs enthusiastically to the bathroom. Once he starts brushing his teeth, his music begins and he rocks out to a great brushing session. After he finishes, he is very pleased and proceeds to the hallway to convince everyone to buy this product after he used it.

interview

 

During this quarter in the video strand of e-comm, I was introduced to new people that i didn’t know before in this class, and I got to work with some of my friends to make videos that we really enjoyed making. I have learned what the 6 shot system is, and how to use it properly, and what the rule of thirds is for interviews and formal videos. I now know how to use the tripod for all videos even though i wasn’t used to it. I had to work with people that I wasn’t used to also, and it made me learn more about the people in my class. I hope to follow video into my sophomore, junior, and senior year in high school, and to keep excelling at video production, and editing. I want to make videos that are about the school, and I want to be able to make videos freely, without any rules.  

chase scene

In the chase scene, I learned how to not act, but actually complete actions and make them look real while doing it. I was able to run without looking fake, and fall down with force. I also learned how to work with multiple directors and another actor that created the storyline and had everything planned out. I had to get used to taking many commands.

In my next project, I plan on creating a much more detailed storyboard and creating it with the rest of my group members so that they know exactly what I want them to do instead of me having to try and explain it to them.

Collaboration on this project was much different just because there were more people to work with. In the next project, I will improve my collaboration by trying to work with a group of people that I’ve worked with before and that I know.

6 shot #2 AB sequence

 

During the AB sequence, I learned how to create better shots and how to frame. While creating this video, I was able to work with two partners and choose from one video. I had to use the environment to my advantage. In the next video, I will use my editing skills to make my video flow better, and to make it look professional. I will attempt to get all of my shots in order in my next video so that I wont have to go out and re-film. The term collaboration means to work together as a team. In this project, we had to helicopter work together to make the video produce faster, and to keep each other out of boredom. I will have to use collaboration in each of my projects in the future so that I can make each video go by faster and so that I can edit with success.
