Reflection
On this project, the class filmed oursleves saying what we like most about our highschool. In the beginning, the first film we used was never recorded, so we recorded again. We went through hell trying to get the video onto the computer, with no success. Dr.A ended up having the whole class refilm in front of a black screen, due to lighting issues. Technology-1, Class-0.
Finally, after refilming and getting things close to the way we wanted them, the whole class reviewed every single video, and judged them for the project. Dr.A pointed out faults in videos that we should be careful of, and I believe the whole class got a better understanding and awareness for good videos versus bad videos.
Then, it was time to begin the project. Michaela was a wonderful partner to work with, and I believe we had the same ideas in mind for the video. We came to agreements easily and equally used both of our ideas in the video. There are some issues to point out in the video, though. Obviously, our big mistake was not formatting the video correctly. I think the beginning clip before the title should've been cut a few seconds earlier, for she goes into the next word. Ultimately, though, i'm very pleased with the video. Not to sound arrogant, but i think our video was unique. I like that we used a mixture of longer and shorter clips, and used clips to support the clip before it.
Next time, I will definitely have to keep an eye out for the formatting screen. And hopefully not have such a hard time with the technology. Overall, this was an enjoyable expierence and I'm satisfied with the video that was produced.
