Film real (December 2020)

    For my reel, I felt like it represented me as an editor and my style of editing pretty well. I started out by choosing the music that I thought would fit my overall vibe. Next, I found some of my old projects (a couple u could not find due to t last year's seniors taking projects off their YouTube channel after they graduated). After that, I put all the videos together to make a smooth, flowing reel that I thought fit me. 

    Over the past four years of eComm, I have acquired many shots throughout all of my projects. some good, others not so good. I made sure to incorporate some of the best shots that I have taken (specifically from the junior and senior year). many were from a music video I directed from last year and a commercial I also directed this year. unfortunately, I failed to get some of what I believed were some of the best shots from some of my projects last year as I said previously. however, I still managed to make my reel diverse. I included shots from my music video, commercial(2020 and 2019), and one shot from last year's feature film. I feel like my reel represented me as a creator because I chose music and clips that well represented me. At the end of the reel, I branded myself as an editor because that is what I like to do the most out of all production roles. 

    There is one thing that I would do differently in my film real. for the music video, it would not fit to scale, and I tried many different ways to get it to fit and none of them worked. my only other choice at that point would be to bring the music video into premier and try and find a way to make it fit but then I would have to put back all the clips I chose into my film real but unfortunately, time would not permit that. I would however keep everything else the same.

semester 1 final

Projects this semester       We did three projects this semester. I came to this class late because I was previously in convergence journalism. I came to this class while we were doing the six shot system, this was video assignment one , and I just hopped into a group. we did ours over silly putty. I helped with lights and I acted. this project took around two weeks. some challenges we faced is that we used a blanket for the background and it wouldn't stay up, but eventually we got it.      We did a Levis commercia l. our idea was we based it off of a scene from Spiderman three. for this I was casting director and I acted in it. I feel like we did a really good job on it. our cinematographer and colorist did a really good job on making it look good. we were organized and got our project done on time.   My current project is the short film.  this project is longer because we all had to write treatments, and then tho chosen ones would need a script. my groups short film was origi

Senior final

      M y past four years with the eCommunications academy was overall an amazing and unique experience. freshman year I remember having a big interest in video and graphic design, but I wasn't so into animation and web. I made some great friends freshman year and that followed into my sophomore year. obviously, I chose video and graphic design. I had a lot of fun following tutorials and creating art I could be proud of in graphic design and I loved making music video remakes and doing mini cover stories. at the end of the sophomore year, I decided to go into convergence journalism. I didn't really connect with the people in that class and within a week I switched to entertainment video. I loved the people in my new class but a part of me always kind of wished I stayed in journalism because that has been something I've been into since middle school. however, I did find something I loved in entertainment and that was my role as a documentarian in that year's feature film

Ecomm Final Project

                   This semester for our final, we did a project that used video, graphic design, web design, and animation.  We created a company and then a product by the company. Our company name was Pack Backs and we sold the infinity pack. The infinity pack is an infinite storage in a regular back pack. You could think of something you want, reach ur hand in, and pull out the object of your desire. some challenges we faced where thinking of ways to avoid inflation and making the perfect logo. We learned how to make our one website and work as a team. After nine weeks of hard work I Personally think our project was a major success and many people would buy our product.           During class time we accomplished a lot of work. As a team we finished the video, created the perfect logo, made a website with the design matching the theme of our company, and we made multiple animations. To stay productive I would constantly communicate with the team to make sure I was doing the bes
