audenices view my video

Evaluation

I think the project went well I did have quite a bit of trouble at the start with trying to come up with an idea. My first idea was to use clips of film to show how some people are happy and don’t have to worry about anything and have friend to help them if they need it. Then cut to a shot of someone walking throw the desert by them self with no one to help them to show how hard they have to work to get what they want. I could not use this idea because of copyright law.

Also the film I want to use that where “wizard of oz” and resident evil extinction”. But resident evil is about four year old so I had to choose another film I choose a film called “Johnny got his gun” to replace “resident evil” part of the film but all three film Where not old enough for the copyright licence to expire. And I couldn’t find anything about asking for permission to use the clips for my film. Also I didn’t have two of the film so I would have had to order them and they would have taken to long for them to arrive.

I did try to come up with a video that had a concept behind it but I couldn’t think of any other ideas in time. Instead I try a craft based idea that was to film some bird on a bird table from my bedroom window and see what effect I could use with Imove. This has given me some idea for effect that I can use in other project that might do. I am happy with what I have accomplished in the few weeks that I have work on it. I think it look good in the space that I have chosen to show it which is one of the classrooms.

I think the audiences enjoyed view it. In some of the questioner I got back from the audcenics they think the video would have been better with the sound track that I had chosen. And also a lot of them didn’t understand it and why it was in the space that it was in. If I was to do this again I would try and think of a concept for the video and to come up with my on shots for the video and try not to bass the video on clips from other film.

Post production diary

Post production I felt was the longest part of the project as I spent a week doing it. During this time I had some problems the first one was the Mac that I was using didn’t save the footage in I movie so I had to upload it again the next lesson. Once the footage was up I spent some time editing out the part of the footage I didn’t want this turned out to be quit a bit as the was thirty minutes and I needed a maxim of five minutes.

I then spent the rest of the week looking to the effect on I move and choosing the one’s I like to put in the film and looking for a suitable sound track. I chose a song called “Every body loves a chubby dude” but because of copyright law I couldn’t use it. I was disappointed by this because in the footage that I did use there where to pigeons on the bird feed’s eating.

I chose several different effect which I think look good in the exhibition space the I have chosen. I finished post production on the 9 of December by put the video on to D.V.D and creating a D.V.D menu.

Production diary

I started the production at home from my bed room window by setting up the tripod and camera. Then using the zoom on the camera zoomed in to create a mid shot of the bird table out side the house. Then pressing record I left the camera for fifteen minutes so I could finish some pre production work.

I returned to the camera to stop recording and to move it to the second location that was in my brother bedroom also facing out the window toward the bird feeder that is below his window and also zooming in to creating a mid shot. I then left it for fifteen and carry on finish some pre production work.

I then went back to the camera to stop recording and folded the tripod up. Then went back in to my room to plug the camera in to the back of my t.v to playback what had just recorded and to loge the tape.
