Today the whole class were put into their groups for the Three Minute Wonder. I was happy to be placed with Ben and Jack as they are two people that I work very well with, especially with media work.
Things Are Going Well...
29th Apr 2013...
Last week our group decided that we are going to do our three minute wonder on Vlogging and how it impacts a certain individual (Ben). Today are group started up our Premier Pro project so that we could import all of our media footage from Ben's YouTube Meet Up in Norwich. We also add our 'RED DOT' title screen so that it is transparent with any footage that is placed behind it. Hopefully by Wednesday we will start filming footage from Ben's house and will hopefully finish filming in that one day.
Project Is On The Way...
30th Apr 2013...
Today Jack was able to add more to the sheet that was given to us by Ellie, which states what we had to do in paperwork for our Three Minute Wonder. Whilst Jack was doing that I continued with my News Essay. Hopefully we are going to be filming tomorrow.
Filming Is Going To Be Good, Canon 650D...
1st May 2013...
Today our group went out filming round Ben's house for our Three Minute Wonder. I believe it went very well as we were able to get all of the footage we needed. The only problem that occur today, was that we didn't have enough memory on the MAC's to transfer the footage over from the Canon.
We Will Try Again Tomorrow...
2nd May 2013...
Today we once again tried to transfer the video footage from the Canon to the MAC. We failed again. However, it is being sorted but in the mean time we have came up with the idea to convert the footage with Media Encoder, Adobe, so that the footage is compressed in size. The footage quality is reduced but not by much that it is noticeable. We also created a 'banner' for the documentary where interviewee's names will be presented at the bottom of the screen. However it is a rough cut so far.
Hopefully We Will Start Editing Tomorrow...
3rd May 2013...
Today were we still unsuccessful in transferring the footage from the Canon to the MAC. It took all lesson to convert and still was not enough space on the MAC. Do hope this doesn't affect editing.
Third Time Lucky!...
7th May 2013...
Today Sean was able to solve the problem of importing our footage over to the MAC. We started our project and were able to cut all of our clips down into sub clips. These sub clips will then be cut down and edited to fit other features of the Documentary.
Thank God For That!...
8th May 2013...
Today we ran into another problem with the MAC. When editing we decided to save the project just in case the file corrupted. However we were too late. So now we have to decide a solution or an alternative to edit all of the footage so that we can reach the deadline for the Three Minute Wonder.
Another Problem!....
9th May 2013...
Yes! Today we finally got all of the problems sorted and we were able to get a lot of editing done and are now back on track. We just need to get some more footage which will not conflict with anything else in our schedule. I think the editing went very well, we were all able to put all of our ideas across and hopefully by the end of it we will have a final Three Minute Wonder that we are all satisfied with.
Thank God!...
10th May 2013...
Today we couldn't really edit anymore until we collected the footage of Ben's mum. However today we were able to create the banners of peoples names that will appear in bottom left of the screen, once finished. Once that was done we decided that I should do the starting sequence and already we have a good design to template from.
All Is Looking Up...
13th May 2013...
Today we focused on getting the title sequence started which was pretty difficult as coming up for an idea that fit the background soundtrack was hard. However we did get it complete as Jack was able to help design the idea. Some of the music used in the starting sequence is copyright but we will credit the person who created the music in the final credits. Hopefully by tomorrow we will finish our first rough cut.
After Effects Is Confusing Sometimes?...
14th May 2013...
Today we were able to get a final rough cut of our Three Minute Wonder on Vlogging. We showed the cut to Ellie and Sean and they both had different ideas for improvements. Some advice was taken and some was not. The credits are only left and by tomorrow, we should have our finished edit.
Getting Really Close...
15th May 2013...
Today we were able to finish our final edit and was able to upload it to YouTube. The final things we had to edit before exporting, was the credits. We experimented with a few things and conclude a ending sequence. I am proud of this piece of work as some aspects of the Three Minute Wonder feels more like my own.
