 Filming the blog wasn’t as hard I thought it would be. I basically filmed off based on what I knew. I did try watching some videos on examples. Those did help a bit with the whole process. At times, I would get a little frustrated with filming the music video. For this film I was using a iPhone to record. One of the reasons I got upset is because my phone died once. My phone would sometimes glitch too. So I figured to just make separate videos and merge them all together towards the end. That worked out so I wouldn’t keep loosing all my progress on the music video. I filmed the video for around 3 hours with my group mates. I only filmed this long because I wanted to be not perfect my at least the music video message was getting the idea across. I want someone to not be able to understand the music video before looking at our storyboard. Filming was a great experience and changed my perspective on everything as a whole. I believe our song my groups mates and I picked also kind of conveys the message they I am trying to get across. Our storyboard kind of conveys our message also, however I am not the best artist so we tried. At one point I tried using my camera that I received for Christmas to see if I would get some better quality. I did come out pretty good. However, my group mates suggested that recording on the phone would be better. In a sense it was easier to upload to the blogger. I would definitely want to film something like this again.

Re-Filming

 As for re-filming our open sequence, we didn’t do much re-filming. When we soon found out that we had did our slightly wrong, we did think about the idea of re-filming. However, we figured that we wouldn’t enough time to even re-film, since it was nearing the end of February. One did we re-film were several parts of our opening sequence. Such as, re-filming the scene if someone laughed or if noise was in the background. At one point we did have to re-film a part only because we changed our mind about using my camera. The camera had really good quality and thought it would be best to use. However, my camera runs on batteries and was about to go dead. So, we re-filmed the part where Ludji is on the phone talking to the other person, me. If we were to re-film,  we would probably re-film the outside of my house. When I recorded the outside of my home, it was still pretty bright outside. The time taking place during this film is like evening, dusk time. Showing the house while it’...

It was pretty easy

 Editing was easy for the most part since I already knew what I was doing. I used an app that I was familiar with so I wouldn’t have to learn how to use a different app. I added certain edits in there like split screen, fade in, fade out, and so on. I just inserted a clip, maybe shortened it or made it longer so it could match the length of the song we used. The only editing I had to do on the song was to fade the sound in towards the beginning and to fade the sound out towards the end of the music video. I also had to lower the sound for a period of time so the dialogue of the video was present. The only thing that was stressful and annoying was when the app (Alight Motion) would lag, glitch, or kick me out of the app. Other than that editing was pretty smooth. I tried to edit and film at the same time so it wouldn’t be as much work. However, in the end I just ended up editing after I was done filming everything. When I had to edit the video, it wasn’t the “editing” I thought we h...

Peer Review

 For our film we got two people to critique our blog. To be honest, they had absolutely nothing bad to say and thought that it was really good. Lyne, said that she didn’t think anything was wrong. She said she loved the choice of music. She also said that she loved how it got louder at the climax of the film. She said that she actually got scared on the part, which was the climax of the film. This was a bonus because our movie genre is horror, so that’s the whole idea. Ludji also asked another friend for critiques. Her name was Valentina. She also had nothing bad to say about our film too and thought that it was really good. She said that are video was really good. She hoped that her turns out like ours. The only critique she had was that at one point it sounded like the music sounds like it restarts. Valentina said that the cut of the music in the back was a little obvious. So we are going to fix it. She said to just try to make it smoother and blend in better. Just so that it’s n...
