Production Blog: Putting Our video Together

-

Hey Michi nation, welcome back to your favorite
blog! Today my group and I are starting to edit our clips together. Owen is the one in charge of the editing as he is the one best at editing. Along the way Owen has taught Rose and I a few editing skills for our future projects. It started off by us double checking making sure we had all our scenes in order to create our music video. Proceeding to organize the clips to make sure they were in order to tell our story. We were unsure what program we would be using, CapCut is a great option because its reliable and easy to use. So, as a group we decided we should just stick with what we know and use CapCut. Owen then began cutting all the scenes creating cohesive storyline, producing a successful visual flow. He continued playing around with the the clips and the timing multiple times to see what looked the best and made a unified music video. This helped me learn more on how to edit different clips on CapCut and using the different features they provide. The audio was definitely one of the most complicated parts as it had to match the scenes perfectly, including a lip syncing scene. To acquire our audio which was "Ivy" By Frank Ocean, Owen first screen recorded the song from YouTube. He then used a feature on CapCut which extracts the audio from a video. This is how we were able to get our audio for our music video. During this process Owen taught me that you are able to adjust volume levels which helps us get the best quality audio we can get for our music video. Not only is accuracy crucial, but we also wanted to add our own unique creative touch, which inspired us to experiment with transitions and add several scene kinds. The purpose of this music video is to vividly depict and realize our inspiring idea. To gain other people's opinions, my group also attempted playing the raw clips and the transitions to individuals nearby. Owen also made sure to depict the scene that our previous posts had suggested. Well thats it for todays blogs, tune in for next time Michi nation.

Hey Michi nation, welcome back to your favorite blog! Today we decided to practice some angles and shots for our video. We all went to Owen's place first. My group mate checked that all the props were in their proper places once we arrived. Rose would be the one recording Owen and I during scenes that didn't involve her. Rose then went through her scenes several times. Before we started recording, she did a few practice runs. We're recording our scenes as a test run so they can all be examined later. Before formally creating and editing them together, Rose will be examining her media to see if anything needs to be improved or fixed. We then went on to film our first scene, which had Owen and me coming up with the idea. We were all a little apprehensive for the first scene and were laughing, so Rose had to record this several times. For three more sequences, we continued laughing. We were able to establish our characters only after those three sessions. Once we started actin...
