So, I spend the first part of this week recovering from a hard drive failure. I had only partial backups, so it took some work to get back to square one. Then, I tried my hand at video editing with adobe premier, but although it seems to have more useful features, it is not nearly […]

So, for this assignment, I made a video of a few really powerful and influential scenes. The one from Band of Brothers and Pay it Forward instantly came to mind when I saw this assignment, but I had to put a bit of thought into coming up with the third. Accordingly, as I viewed the […]

Video crew part deux! This week is up there with the closest to finishing everything on time, considering I had to do everything but the three daily creates today (incredibly busy week, borderline finals amount of work). I initially had trouble incorporating my character with video assignments, but I think I got a lot more … Continue reading Week 11 Summary

This assignment has you create a short 1-2 minute documentary about a certain person close to you. Most people did their western characters for this, but I wanted to try something a little fun. I chose my favorite character from my favorite video game, Dota 2, or Defense of the Ancients 2. Zeus, much similar … Continue reading Video Assignment – Mini Documentary

A (Not So Typical) Day in My Life […]

For this assignment, we were required to create a 2 to 3 minute documentary based on someone important. I took this opportunity to expand on my western character, Riza.

In this assignment, you take a clip from a movie, and try to make it look like a film out of the silent era. This is usually accomplished by removing the sound, turning it black and white, and adding some sort of filter, while adding in background music and title cards. I chose the shootout … Continue reading Video Assignment – Return to the Silent Era

For this assignment, you create a video montage of your favorite assignments that you have done so far.

This assignment is to create a video tutorial for origami. The original theme was halloween, but I decided to connect it with my character, crafting him a paper gun for when his trusty Smith & Wesson isn’t around. I found how to make the gun from a tutorial online. Since I don’t have any proper … Continue reading Video Assignment – Origami

I completed the three and a half star assignment Name That Book. I used the app vine to create a short video. In the video are hand drawn symbols representing a certain book. I was trying to think of how to represent a book using inanimate objects laying around me, but I couldn’t quite find the […]
