How to Print Video


Pre-Production

Before the making of this video, we worked together with our partner to brainstorm the different shots and camera angles we wanted for our video. This lead us to making a story board, which pretty much summarized what we would be trying to do with our video. After we had done this, we got our iPads so we could put our idea into actual photographs. These allowed us to better envision what our video would be like when we actually started putting it together. This also helped us receive small critiques on how to frame our videos. After we had prepared all of this, my partner and I decided what we wanted to do individually for the video. We decided that he would film, and I would act, but we would both help frame the shots, as well as editing the video by ourselves. Now we were ready to start the production of the video.

Production of the Video

Now we had started the video itself, and with it we had to make many decisions and changes as a group. In this way I thought my partner and I worked pretty well together; we were both very cooperative and willing to let the other person help out. So, we began filming with our iPads and tripods (which were difficult to operate at first) to shoot the different parts of our video. We usually took shots from different angles for each part of the video, so we could then decide which angle we like the best. When we were finished filming, we imported the videos to our computer and started the editing process, on Premier Pro. This program was definitely a huge learning experience, and it was difficult to adjust to the different software. Luckily, we had a lot of people around us, including our partners that helped us learn different techniques. Eventually, we were done editing our video and published it to our YouTube accounts.


What I Learned and How it Went

For me this project got a little dull at times, but it was definitely a crucial part in my learning of filming and video production. I was able to learn how to shorten certain clips, import audio for our project, as well as learning the different techniques and things to think about while filming. As a whole, I thought my partner and I did a pretty good job with the production of this video. We worked well cooperatively, and communicated with each other a lot. We tried not overpower one another, and I think that worked well for us. We also managed our time pretty well, and were able to learn a lot about the editing software. With this project, I will definitely use it as a stepping stone for future projects. This project was useful for learning different filming, and editing techniques. If I were to do this project again, I might have changed the angling of a few of our clips, and might have put a little more effort into adding detail to my editing. As a whole, I think this project will definitely be useful in future projects and experiences, and I am happy with our end result.

My Personality Type

ISTJ My personality type is ISTJ. This means I am introverted, sensing, thinking, and judging. People who are classified as an ISTJ are typically very analytical, reliable, and detail-oriented. They tend to value logical reasoning rather than emotional. They tend to prefer to be alone at times, and keep their thoughts to themselves. These people like to use processes that are proven to work, and also like to rely on their past experiences. Some famous people who share this personality type are George Washington, Queen Elizabeth II, and George H.W. Bush. As a whole, I believe this description of me is almost spot on. I think the quiz is definitely correct when it says I am introverted, and prefer to look at logic when reasoning. I believe I am definitely dependable and detail-oriented, but I think I also have some qualities of perceiving, to go along with judging. For example, I always try to not over schedule things, and I work pretty well under pressure. As a whole, I though t...

Typography Project

Typography Overview In this project, we were approached with the task of creating a project to show different terms of typography by using Adobe Illustrator. Before we started, we were given some basic knowledge about typography. This included different fonts, and parts of letters. We were then able to use some of our prior knowledge about Adobe Illustrator to create a name line to show our newfound knowledge. This project once again I believe was a very good stepping stone in my knowledge and I think it will be very useful in the future. What I learned For this project, we started off by writing our names and sizing it appropriately, and then making three lines to represent the general height of different parts of the letters. We then labeled different parts of our name with words and arrows. Once again, the command "Option-Drag" was very useful, as it helped us copy and paste our labels easily. After we had labeled at least ten parts of our name, we tweaked the l...

ONW Now Sophomore Edition

This was definitely the hardest project we've done this year. Not only was the time schedule very hard to meet, but there was also just a lot of things that had to be done. I definitely learned a lot about all the work that goes in to making a good news show. I learned how much goes on behind the scenes, such as what is done in the control room and with the camera and teleprompter. Personally, I really enjoyed working in the control room for this project. It was definitely a lot of pressure to work completely on the go. I had a huge part in the live recording of the show, which was definitely stressful, but I still enjoyed it. After doing this project, I would say the most important aspect of a successful news show is organization. It is extremely important for everybody to know exactly what their job is so they can execute perfectly. It is also very important to have good communication among your crew. For example, we didn't do a great job at communicating with our anchors...
