Production Blog: Update

   Hey guys!! It's Eva again! I'm sorry for the late update- I got a super bad stomach flu and spent half of the week basically bedridden LOL. It's alright I'm all better now! 

  Despite being sick for a few days, I did take the time to think thoroughly about the clips I want. I unfortunately had to set back my first actual recording day to tomorrow, but I know exactly what I'm going to shoot. I set it back all the way till tomorrow because tomorrow I go to work and I'll be able to record myself at work! I also plan on shooting my super cool superhero shot at work too, so I'll probably end up doing that tomorrow as well.

 Along with setting back my recording day, I also took the time to look at other commercials the one I'm making, and I found one that I really liked! In this introduction video, the girl used a voiceover to tell us about herself. I found it extremely engaging and I think I'm going to use her commercial as a guide for doing mine! Of course, I'm still sticking to adding the live photos, but I think I might add regular still pictures as well. I know I went EXTREMELY back and forth with it, but this time I'm sticking to the still photos!! I'm going to do the things that I planned on doing originally, I've just figured out how I want to organize it!! 

 To be clear, I always knew that I'd have to use a voiceover, but seeing an example really helped me open up to the idea of what things I could say about myself! I'm mostly going to use information that I shared with you guys in my first blog, but it'll be wayyyy more visual! To be able to show you guys the things that I was talking about in my first blog is going to be so exciting for me! Next update is going to be super excitinggggg!!! Things are finally moving along!!!!!! 

 Sorry about the rather short update for tonight, but I promise, the next update is going to be huge!! Can't wait to tell you guys about it!! 

Goodnight guys!!!

P.S. here is the video that really inspired me! :)

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...
