    I started this week’s work by doing video assignments.  The first assignment that I chose to do is about “making a paper boat”. I used to make it when I was a kid so I enjoyed doing this assignment. Making a paper boat For the second assignment, I learnt alphabets of sign language and created a …

    Sign Language

    by
    To do this assignment of signing words. I watched the videos of students who had already completed this assignment to get an idea of what I was supposed to do. I did not even know that there existed different alphabets for sign language. I also watched a youtube video in which they were teaching the …

    Life Hacks

    by
    I enjoyed doing the assignment of Life hacks although it took a long time to complete it. I did not have any idea of working with iMovie so it took some time to be familiar with it. To teach two life hacks, I took help from my mom. To do the first life hack, I …

    I started this assignment of video analysis by first completing all the readings and watching all the videos assigned. Then I logged into Netflix and watched two episodes of ‘The Flash’.

    Reading Movies!

    by
    I used something called bandicam to record the video and then I movie to record the voice over. I honestly struggled with this project. I struggled because I found it hard to focus on things with the clip going by so fast. I watched it multiple times and still was having difficulty focusing on the […]

    Week 10 – Videos

    by
    This week was not what I had expected! I expected this to be one of the worst weeks because I do not like making videos but so far I feel like it was the best. It was great to learn about the cinematic effects that film makers use. I will now not be able to watch a movie without thinking about these concepts. I know the assignment you said would be more videos next week if we don’t do the...

    Suicide Squad Video Essay

    by
    For my video essay assignment I chose to use a scene from Suicide Squad that really stood out to me. It stood out the most because of the use of cinematic effects that are presented in it. At first I was worried about this assignment because I know nothing about film but after reading the articles and watching the clips, I felt a bit more comfortable. I learned a lot about: Reverse shots and how to film dialogue inside the...

    6 Second Butterfly

    by
    Six Second Art – 4 stars For this assignment I had to make some art in 6 seconds. I thought it would be easy but quickly realized that I was wrong. I am not good at art and it is really hard to do something in 6 seconds. Time flies!! I did this about 15 times with different drawings but I was taking too long. I finally ended up drawing a butterfly. I did not enjoy this assignment at all!...

    Weekly Summary #10

    by
    It was a new week and I was ready to CRUSH it. After a couple weeks of sub-par work (and living), I was ready to get back in the saddle as they say and hit one out of the ballpark. (I’m sensing a cliche theme here….) How to Read a Movie and Every Frame a …

    Day in the life and Poetry

    by
    Day in the life This was by far the most enjoyable project this week since I got to document my life experiences. I downloaded Adobe Premiere Clip, which is an awesome video editing application for your phone. This made compiling my videos and adding a soundtrack really easy and convenient. I highly recommend the free …

    Video Essay

    by
    Of course this assignment made me nervous. Would I have enough time to learn the logistics of creating a voice-over video? Would I pick a scene that had enough depth and character to analyze? Would the final product be something I could be proud of or something that would just be “good enough?” I started …
