Holiday Greetings



I think my partner and I did well on the music and the border we added. We did our script the best we could do it. What would have been nice to do was what Michelle and Taylor did by how they went from one video to another. I liked this because it was just really nice and creative. Me and Kaycee did the same work because I edited my clip and she did hers. If I had another chance to complete this, I would probably change the music because it didin't really go with the places we were in. But that's the only thing I would change because I like how we did our video.

Blog Reflection

I think my group abd I did really good on our final video. We got a list of things we needed to fix and we did them. We worked together and tried our best on this project. We explained what cyberbullying is very well. We also got opinions from other students. I liked the feedback that we got because it helped a lot and we fixed our mistakes. I also liked giving other people feedback because that helped them a lot too with their final videos.

5 things I learned



I liked this video a lot.One thing I learned is that it is important to put titles to introduce the people. It is also important to cut between a long interview and add something. This group made titles but you can also make it fade away. I also learned how to make clean cuts.

5 things I learned



I learned many thing about this video. First, this team made a few changes and they made it even better than it was before. I liked how Jacob was walking in the hallways. That makes the video a little more dramatic because you may not know when someone might be cyberbullied. They facts were good and they explained very well what cyberbulling is. They showed cellphones and I liked that beacuse it showed that people cyberbully through texting or the internet.

Greenscreen



By editing this images, I learned that sometimes when you make a green screen, you can have some trouble. For example like taking of a shadow. We tried to dissapear it but we couldn't completely do it. We are going to learn hoe to make backrounds when making a video. It is important to know how to edit a video with a backround because we need to make our best in making it look good.

Two things people really liked about our video were the type of music we picked and how the video started showing how Chris was cyberbullied. One thing that we need to fix is the beggining. It started off with a black screen and music. The music was a little too loud and we need to cut off a couple of seconds beacuse it took too long. The credits also need to be fixed beacuse we did slides and that took too long. The feedback that they gave us will help a lot for our final video.

Title Workshop



These are different types of titles.You use the first one when you want to introduce a title to a clip. You can use the other ones when you want to give a name of something or someone in the middle of the video. This is called an overlay title. When inserting titles to a clip, you have to make sure that the title dosen't cover the images. They should go on the corners, which are called low 3 degree titles. I learned how to make titles and that is really helpful for me because I can use this on another project we may have in this class.

Overlay_inserts




This is an example of an overlay edit. An overlay edit is placed on top of another clip. To do this, you drag a clip and place it right on top of your video. The difference between an overlay and an insert is that an overlay is placed on top of a video and an insert, you press the Ctrl button and drag the video down and it moves the clips over to the right. You can use an overlay when you want to replace a clip, while you'd use an insert edit when you feel that you're missing a part of a clip. In this case the insert works better because the video was missing something and I added another clip at the end.

Deleting/Extracting



A simple cut in the timeline means removing a clip while the other videos stay the same. A ripple delete is when you delete a clip, but the other videos come closer together. Lifting and extracting are two ways to remove clips.It is the same thing as doing a cut or a ripple delete. But it's easier because the buttons are already in the panels. This is an example of deleting clips.I decided to delete clips because there were some parts that were not necessary in this video.

Baler Interviews Reflection




I think I am getting better at editing videos.On my next project I need to remember how to upload the videos to you tube.I would like to learn how to make titles because I didin't really understand how to edit them. My partner helped me by talking me through on how to put my video on my blog.I did not help my partner because she knows more than I do and she mostly helped me.On this project I gained a better idea on how to edit videos because I didin't understand that.The only challenge I changed was on how to upload the videos but other than that I am understanding things better.I think I will do better on my next project.
