For this project, we started off by taking our previous projects and sizing them appropriately. We then printed these photos. After that, we used water colors to paint a blank sheet of paper however we wanted. Once our paint had dried, we started the actual printing process. We cut our picture with a small border (1/2 to 1 inch) of white paper around it. Then, we applied mod podge to the areas with ink on it. Then we placed our photo face down onto our water colors (side with ink facing down). After that, we used a squeegee. With the squeegee, we applied light pressure to the entire image and tried to squeeze our all of the bubbles and places with too much mod podge. We had to be very careful to not get the excess mod podge on the back of our image, or else it would make later steps much much difficult. Once we successfully squeezed out the extra mod podge, we left it to dry over night. The next day, we used a small amount of water to wet our image. We then started to rub away the wh...

After we chose this, we started to set up interviews with the people we needed for our video. For pre-production, we also planned out what else we would need to film or receive for b-roll. Once we had a solid plan for what we needed to get, we filmed our actual interview with Maleah. We also got some additional b-roll from various parts of the school and got some clips from Maleah of her and the dance team. This lead us in to the editing process where we started by sequencing our shots. Once we had our shots sequenced and edited accordingly, we recorded a voiceover to help bring our information together in the video. We then presented our videos and got some positive and negative feedback. Next, we reedited our video based on the feedback we received. Throughout this entire process, my main role was to keep our group on track and make sure we got our ...
