Peer Film Review

The one who wrote the criticisms for our video was a junior named Mark. Mark is an aspiring rapper and has made many songs already. I wanted to ask Mark to make a criticism for our video because I thought that he would have the most unbiased opinion. So me and Jason asked Mark if he could watch and review our video. At first after the first time he watched it, he laughed which was fine because I would have done the same thing. After he finished laughing he watched it again and started criticizing. He said many things like I felt the overall emotion in the battles. The suspenseful moments caught my eye quite quickly upon only just now seeing the characters. The angles were thought out carefully and executed in the right way. The sound effects were relatively as close as possible as can be. The facial expressions gradually shifted all throughout the film. The first 21 seconds of walking took too long. The voices were too low to a certain extent. The scenery was rather bright and didn't match the overall aesthetic of the Dialogue between characters. The running in the battle felt a little delayed and too weak. The sword was conveniently placed by a tree without any thorough explanation. The impact of the hits during the battle seemed a little more fast forward. The ending had me wondering what would happen next. More emotion could have been put into everything leading up to the fight. The runs felt very stiff. So overall, there were many things right with the emotions, but the actions themselves needed some work.

Final Task

 This video took a lot out of my group. There was so much that we had to do and so many problems occured that there was nothing we could do for some of them. Even with all those issues, I honestly think that this is the best video we made yet. Although I can see the plot issues and mistakes we made, this video is the child of our hard work. This may not be the best there is, but I am proud of this video. So I think that to the viewer, instead of watching the video to judge, watch the video to enjoy. So thank you to all who helped us. Thank you group mates who I couldn't have done this without. And thank you, for enjoying the show.

Editing Blog: Tying up loose ends

We left off with our video only having the video clips all in the right order. We had to finish the video today with everything needed. So first we put in the music that we got. We got the music from Jamie Christopherson and the music fit perfectly into our video. The next thing we had to do was the voiceovers for the video. When recording outside, many of the sounds from others talking, wind, or sounds in general made our voices seem low. Even we couldn't hear ourselves while watching. We tried to go record again so we could hear our voices but it didn't work. We knew the only thing we could do to make our voices be heard is to do a voiceover of the lines. So we recorded our lines of dialogue and put them in the video in the required places. We did not voiceover all the scenes because some of them were alright or quiet. At this point the audio was put in with the voice lines and the music. We made sure to not put the music too loud so we could hear the voices. We also finished
