Production Blog

 What happening, media study crew! Welcome back to another blog of the day. So far I have chosen the audios and pictures, and have began to play around with the app. I started to use the features on the app like I stated in the last blog, and now feel like I have became a pro at it.  Using different effects or moving pictures around has become a second nature for me. I use the app with speed and agility when changing and tweaking parts of my video. 

Although I have already chosen the media, I wanted to review it and really make sure that these best suit me. That allows me to go through the process of reflecting on myself. Because we have to consolidate the commercial into so little pictures, it is hard for me to choose the best ones. I could choose hundreds of pictures that I feel show every aspect of me. So when reviewing these pictures I did not only have to choose which ones best represent me but which qualities of mine are most important. For example, I feel like the aspect that shows me strongly is my sense of humor. Therefore, when reviewing my pictures, I made sure that not all, but some of my pictures were silly showing that side of me. I also am a heavily social person so I made sure to show videos of me with my friends or family of being social. This led me to changing not all, but a few of my pictures. In the beginning of this process, I had so many to chose from which made me chose pictures out of random. Even though these pictures did show a certain side of me, they didn't show the most predominate sides of me. 

After finalizing all changes, I readjusted the new ones with my audios. I had my audios made already with my media of myself, but had to change them after implementing the new ones. After finishing all of these steps, I only had a few left to complete. 

Those steps will be for another day to share. Thank you guys so much for listening once again. Bye media studies crew!

Reflection of Commercial

 Hey Media Study Crew, welcome back to the blog of the day. Today I will be reflecting and talking about my commercial and the process. I learned how to use various types of technology in the process of making my commercial. One of these included the features and functions of my phone. Although, I along with many others are constantly on our phones, doesn't mean we know all the features they can do. When I use my phone it is for typical things like calling, texting, watching videos, or looking things up. When making my commercial I learned the more in depth the features my phone was capable of. For example, I found out easier ways to crop videos on my phones and different shortcut features available to me. Along with features on my phone I learned how to use CapCut. Like I have stated in previous blogs, I have used CapCut before. Therefore, I was slightly familiarized with the app, but no completely. Some things I learned on the app were how to flow my audios together, fade videos,...

Horror: Research of Genre

Image
Genre - Horror  Common camera angles used in horror videos/movies would be high-angles often used to make characters appear vulnerable, low-angle to make characters look more dominant (often the bad one), Dutch angles are also used to create a sense of imbalance and close-ups are used to show fear on someone’s eyes or show a curvature smile. Common mis-en-scene in horror films are a dark setting in a rural location away from everyone, props often used are weapons such as knives, axes and chainsaws that would create a painful death,   Black, red, grey and brown would all be colours considered for a horror film as they all signify danger and tragedy, m ost people (mainly victims) in horror films look like the are dressed casually but a lot of effort is put into their outfits to show hints of their role and personality in the movie,  t he   weaker characters in the frame are the ones who are opposite the camera on the floor showing how positioning affects how the film i...

Production Blog: Change is good!

Image
Hello Media Studies Crew, I am back. Today, my group and I will be going over our previous film. This time, we're considering the prior complaint we received from one of our friends. Although the majority of the feedback was favorable, we are revising CapCut to make it the best it can be. One of her main complaints was the audio. I then (the editor) asked Michelle and me to work together to see if we could make our video sound louder. This led us into a major internet loophole. Michelle searched on TikTok, which has become the new Google. I spent some time looking through YouTube videos for a solution. After what felt like 500 videos, we discovered a solution. On CapCut, they had the option of increasing the media volume, which we did. We also finished evaluating minor matters such as the timing of our videos. We also received additional feedback about a teacher we truly enjoy. This teacher offered us input on how our video's picture compared to others. Our group then reviewed ...
