This was an amazing semester filled with entertainment. We focused on three projects including our High School Trailer, Short Film, and Music Video.
High School Trailer
This project was to choose a movie trailer that was based in a high school and re create it shot for shot. My group and I choose the A-List. In total this project took about 3 weeks to shoot and edit. We faced some challenges with sound and actors but we persevered. I learned that it is important to communicate with your group and help everyone along the way. If I were to do this again I would have actually used actors. Overall this video is not my best work but was still fun to make.
Short Film
This project was to take one of our group members treatments and turn it into a 5-10 minute short film. Our treatment was a horror comedy based off of Scooby Do. This project only took our group 2 weeks because we were able to shoot this is 1 day. We faced some challenges editing because we forgot a couple shots here and there but we learned to be more prepared. If I were to do this again I would have changed nothing my group and I had a blast filming this. Overall this was probably my favorite video I have ever made.
Reflection
Music Video
This project was to be inspired by a song and re-make the music video. My group and I choose 50 Ways To Say Goodby by Train.This project took us about 3 weeks. We definitely faced challenges because we were originally going to do a different song but changed it half way. W worked together as a group and got it done together. My overall opine is that our actor did a very good job and I liked the way the final edit turned out.
Reflection
This year I furthered my knowledge in the 6 shot system and my camera work. I also learned a lot about group projects, project management, and leadership skills.
I used my time effectively in class whether it was collaborating in my group or filming. I would stay productive by focusing on what the task at hand was. I never had spare time because you can always add effects or sound to a video. This class took up some outside time with my group to film but I also worked on scripting and my treatment.
Some of my strengths are shooting the actual video I was the cinematographer in 2 our of 3 films. I need some improvement on editing but this worked out because w all have different rooms in a group project.
I loved the people most this semester because no matter what group I was in I always had a good time. I would change anything differently I loved the way we watched videos and the projects at hand. One goal I am setting for next year is to take my time and put all effort into the video I am creating. A big thanks to Mrs. Smith for making this a very enjoyable class I will miss you dearly next year!!
