Final for Web

In this quarter I did the video branch of E-Comm. In this branch we learned how to film a video properly, edit a video, what the 6 shots in the six shot sequence were, and how to work well with others. Learning how to make a proper video was a very critical part of this branch. Without knowing what you're doing can lead to some very bad videos and make your project look like trash. Also if you didn't use the six shot sequence, your video would have lots of jumps, skips, and just flat out look weird and confusing. Editing a video was almost as important as filming. You have to make sure that the clips flow smoothly, cut out unnecessary parts of clips, make sure the sound effects are fitting, and making sure it is the best quality it can be. Then if all that doesn't seem hard, then working with others will be a big shocker for you. I know what your thinking, "How hard can working with others be?" well it can be quite difficult at times, with people arguing, trying to set up shots, people being absent, etc. can make working with others stressful. On the other hand, working with others can be a fun and  rewarding process as you make new friends, and have fun in the whole process of making the video! Then after video you start web design. Web design was a fairly simple, thanks to some handy step by step instructions, but it still required you to think on your own. In other words, it was a learning experience that turned out to be really cool. We used the Adobe DreamWeaver software, which is really easy to use, and is quite fun to mess around with. Overall, this was a really fun, and interesting quarter. I learned new things, made new friends, and just had a blast, all while working on assignments that didn't really feel like assignments, but rather a fun learning experience.

Web

Describe The Project: We learned how to set up and design a web page using Adobe DreamWeaver.



Was It Difficult?: The project was really easy. The step by step instructions were spot on, making it easy to create.



If so, what parts?: No parts were hard in this project.


Was it fun?: This project was really fun, I really enjoyed it.


What thoughts do you have about web design?: I think i is very interesting and fun. I would love to do this again.

Intro to Web

Chase Scene

In this project I learned a lot of things. I learned how to set up shots to make a sequence of shots play out to look like one continuous clip. Next I learned how to set the camera in different places and heights to get better angles for my clips. Then I learned how to use my environment to my advantage with lighting and with using it for props. Finally I learned how to trim a video to the exact point I need it to be and how to make shots look like one continuous clip. I will apply my knowledge of working together with my group mates and using the environment in my next project. I say this because cooperation is crucial for any video to work and turn out looking good. Using the environment is important because lighting and certain props may be very important when trying to get a very good looking shot. Collaboration was slightly different in this one compared to the last project. In this project, collaboration was a huge part of it. Many shots needed to be discussed so that everyone agreed on what to film. Then we had to agree on where to shoot the clips and what type of lighting we needed. It was also very important to work to gather to make the filming go as smoothly as possible. Finally when props were needed for certain shots we all had to agree on what prop to use and how it was going to be used. I could help improve collaboration in my next project by changing a few things. I could help make sure that the group stays on task at all times. Next I could make sure that I am going along with everything as quickly and effectively as possible. Finally I can help to make sure that everyone is getting along and that we are working together.
