    Everybody Wants to Rule the World

    by
    If you can’t rule the world, then why not make one? To a degree, “it’s my own design / it’s my own remorse.” I used an instrumental to this song in my radio bumper (how distant that feels). Howdy y’all, and welcome back to my video assignments. This time, I chose to do the “#SixSecondArt” … Continue reading "Everybody Wants to Rule the World"

    pineapple on pizza?

    by
    4 Stars This is one of my favorite videos I’ve made in this class so far! It even tops last week’s “All About the 80s”. For this video, the assignment was to ask people their opinion on something. The first idea that popped into my head was: “pineapple on pizza!”.  It’s pretty cliche and basic, I’ve seen a lot of “arguments” about it on Twitter, and I thought it would be a fun and easy topic to do. What was not easy, was the editing process. It’s very different working with your own footage, compared to using someone else’s. I paid way more attention to the details this time, and since it was my own footage I was able to be more creative with it.  I tried out a new video editing software this week called Filmora. I like the Windows Movie editor but it’s extremely limited in what it can do. Filmora is incredibly user friendly, and I am super happy I chose this one. For someone who’s a beginner, I was able to quickly pick up the elements, yet it still has many advanced features that I still have yet to master! Here’s a screenshot of my editing screen (Filmora9): And here’s the video! (all credits are listed in the video description):  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51Eo5u7_CBM

    One Second Story: A Toddlers World…Is Odd.

    by
    http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/1-second-video/How much of a story can you tell in a 1 second video? Inspired by this: http://vimeo.com/320719372.5 Stars I didn’t really know what to record. I mean, there are countless things I could have recorded. A nice sunset, my cats/dog, the stars…I don’t know. But I decided to record my baby sister, Jessica. She confuses me Read More

    my dream life

    by
    The first video assignment I did this week was a trailer for my dream life. The assignment was rated as 2.5 stars, but personally I believe it’s worth 4 stars! I think the rating is lower because it’s only supposed to be a 30-second video, but mine ended up being a bit longer than that. I also had to download a bunch of apps on my phone in order to create the intro to this video. The intro to the video was a template that someone created for others to use, and I added the text through certain phone apps as well as other effects, such as the stars. This would’ve been a lot easier if the apps were available like this in my computer of I could see a tutorial on using apps for windows on how to do this, but since the apps were only on my phone I went with that. I’m currently working on another video for this week and I’m using a different video editor (Filmora) in which I didn’t have to use the iPhone apps in order to get the intro detailed to how I want!  I edited the main part of the video using a different app this time, called Animotica. I wanted to try something different than the generic Windows video editor because I believe I […]

    Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn!

    by
    So I changed this assignment up a little bit because I love Margot Robbie and she’s great in all her movies, but the other scenes I wanted to use were kind of inappropriate. Originally the assignment was to create a 30 to 60 second highlight reel of your favorite Actor/Actress with their most enjoyable movie … Continue reading "Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn!"
