Green Screen Workshop

A green screen works by allowing you be in places you are not. Something to keep into consideration would be to make sure the screen is perfectly flat and free of wrinkles. This creats problems when in the editing process. Also dont wear green. The techniques offered in After Effects made the editing so much more easy than the editing offered in Premiere Pro. This workshop was pretty easy to finish because of the power point provided.

Celebrating Yalda & Night Chant

I felt that mer and my partener did a very good job using our time well and working together to complete this video. We spent a lot of time working on the editing and making sure that what we were saying wasn't cut offf or it wasn't dragging on too long. I liked how Laura's group added in pictures into their video and i think that if we do another project like this I might take that into consideration. Also I liked how Luis's group made their scenes transition very well. In creating this video a worked on editing my film while Jorge worked on editing his film. We both decided where we would set the in and out points and where/how to place our backgrounds. We both seemed to work off of each other and help each other by commenting on what and how we were doing. I helped Jorge with the editing of the scene and Jorge helped me with the music and titles. Next time Iwould spend more time thinking about camera angles and rehersing my script...and maybe bring in some props.

Group 3 Sexting Today Rough Draft

All of the suggestions that people had were really helpful. One suggestion that I found to be one of the ones that kept opping up was the volume. I do believe that the volume should be higher that way you can actually understand what we are saying. I feel like we should adjust the volumes so that they can beat the same volume. I also thought we should also end the concluding scene with more of a pull and end it smoothly instead of having a random picture. The last suggestion I thought was very important was maybe having some picture being shown with the interviews so everyone can see more of a variety of things instead of just seeing the person speaking.
