Production Blog: Planning

  Hi guys!! It's Eva again! I just wanted to update you guys on my commercial and how it's going! So, I finally decided which editing software I want to use. I was thinking about using CapCut originally since it was something I heard my friends using, but I decided to use iMovie instead. I've already previously used iMovie for similar projects, so I'm somewhat familiar with it. Plus, iMovie is just something I have easy access to since it comes on my Apple products!

 I know that in my last post I said that I was hoping to bring at least a few clips I decided on DEFINITELY using in my commercial, and I did! Though I still need to figure out how I'm going to put it all together for it to flow nicely, I finally have some of the clips and videos I'm going to use. Of course, I still want to record some bits for the commercial, so I'm missing those clips too. Some of the clips I chose to use are mostly live photos from some of my most precious and notable moments. I also chose to use some videos from band! The videos I chose of band are from last year, but a commercial about me would be far from accurate if I didn't include my best moments in band. I'm actually so happy about including the videos of me in band. Overall, I'm super excited about the clips and videos I have so far for the commercial, and I can't wait for the final product!

 For the clips that I've yet to record, I'm planning on making them little tiny snippets of me doing random things that I do normally. For example, me driving to work or me at school in my AICE Media Studies class. ALSO, I absolutely want to do that shot of me at the end where I'm shot from a low angle in a superman pose. I NEED to get that shot of me in the commercial. I think that it adds the most important bit of my personality - my silliness. LOL. 

 I know that this was a rather short update for you guys, but trust me- I'm progressing majorly in this!

 For my next update, I hope to have had at least started putting things together on iMovie! I'm so excited!!!!!!

Have a goodnight!!




P.S. Here are some clips that will definitely be featured in my commercial :)

All About Me Commercial!

Hi guys! It's finally here!!! I finally present to you guys my final product! Though most of my blogs consisted of me just brainstorming, we had the ball moving little by little! I'm so proud of the way this project came out- I really tried my best to make this commercial as "Eva" as I could've.  Though, at times little obstacles with the editing and my health came along, we managed to finish the project! I also think that I managed to achieve the intended tones for the video. I think that it's a very accurate representation of me. I genuinely feel super excited to show you guys this commercial I worked very hard on!  Every night I spent wondering about what to do for this project was worth it, and the final product shows it! I feel like by presenting this video to you guys, you guys can ACTUALLY see who I am. Through silly little videos of me and the things that I hold dearest to me, you guys have gotten to see the type of person that I am! Not only this, but...

My Group for the Music Video

Image
   Hi guys!!! I'm back with another post in relation to my music video!!  Everyone in my class is working on their music video in a group, but I'm working alone. To be honest, I had a doctors appointment the day we chose groups and the people I wanted to work with ended up getting into a group LOL. However, I'm not upset at the idea of working alone. Working in a group can get quite complicated sometimes- especially when it comes to conflicting schedules. This being said, despite the workload being a bit bigger, I'm quite satisfied with working alone. I feel that by working alone, I'll be able to really make it my own. I don't necessarily have an issue with working in a group, but they both have their respective pros and cons. Besides, working alone doesn't mean that I can't ask my super awesome friends to help me with certain things!   For the song I'll be using, I chose to use Good Days by SZA. Overall, the vibe of the song is really easy to create...

Title Research: Split

1. What titles are displayed during the opening sequences?  The opening sequences of "Split" directed by M. Night Shyamalan, begins with multiple tiny black boxes that repeat all over the screen and in each of them show the credits and titles such as "Universal Pictures Presents", "In association with Blumhouse Productions", along with a few others in which they do the same to the Director of the movie and the title of the movie "Split" 2. What images are prioritized in the opening sequence?  The biggest thing that is shown in the opening sequence is right off the bat, you see a guy instantly from the perspective of the girl in which he reaches over and grabs you. Already putting tension on the audience right off the bat they follow up with the opening sequence where all we see are the titles. However throughout that, you can see the guy transporting the girl that was kidnapped somewhere that we do not know yet as the audience. This is a really e...
