For my video project I wanted to change the music and audio of a key scene in the movie Notting Hill.  This is one of my favorite movies.  It took many, many attempts to copy the movie from vlc, to handbrake to imoviehd.  Imoviehd isn’t my favorite program, I felt limited in my capacity to “create.”  The scene is where Anna Scott “Julia Roberts” has her escape from the paparazzi cut short due to William Thacker’s “Hugh Grant” fury flatmate Spike, who leaked the news at a pub that Anna a famous movie star was in his flat.  The scene where William is walking down Portobello Road was originally a depressing scene so I tried to make it more upbeat.  I ended up taking a couple other key scenes to basically tell a short love story.  I changed the audio of the scene where Spike is confessing to William.  There was another key scene that I had trouble uploading where William tries to climb over a gate into a private garden, which is shown where Anna kisses him.  In the end I added a picture of Meredith, Anna and I at the gate in Notting Hill and a short clip where I reenact the scene.
