Production Blog finishing the commercial

 Hello, welcome back today I worked on finishing my All About Me Commercial. I just have a few finishing touches to do and clean up the editing a little. In my last production blog, I left off from adding effects and transitions. Now I decided to add text to my commercial. In the first photo, I added a text saying "All about Me Commercial". To do this I clicked on the "add text."  Typed in the "Enter text..." 'All About Me Commercial'. The font I chose was "Modern". I then wanted an effect on my text. To do this, I went to "Animation" which is shown when you click on the text it gives many options for what you want to do to the text. The animation I chose was "Type 1" I found it in the "in" tab of "animation." The duration of the text starts halfway through the first photo and ends halfway through the second clip of my siblings and me at the swings. The next text I added was in my second video of my siblings at the beach. The text I put said "By: Elizabeth Ehney" I used the same font as my first text which is "Modern". I also wanted an effect for this text I used the "Type 1" effect for it. To get this text it was the same process as the other one. This text is only shown for half of the video. I also added another text to the end of the video because it looked empty. I added a text box that said "Thank you for watching". I put it on the last clip of my friend and me at the pool. I used the same effect and font as the other text boxes I put. Lastly, for each text box, I put a "stroke" which is an outline of the words. I put the "stroke" color as black. To do this I went to "Style" which is one of the tabs that shows when you click on your text. Then on the bottom I clicked "stroke". I adjusted it to how much I wanted it to show. Each text has a size 9 stroke. Next, I deleted a few Zoom effects because they didn't match well with the commercial. It made it look too choppy and didn't flow well with the other clips together. I deleted the Zoom effects there was one that zoomed in on me holding a cupcake and the other I deleted was the video of my friend and I. I deleted it in those places because I didn't like how it looked. After doing this my commercial was finally done. Thank you for reading and bye.

Finding music and adding it to the opening sequence

 On February 28 I was finding the music to use for my opening sequence. For my opening sequence, I needed to use copyright-free music. I was able to find some on YouTube that were copyright-free by searching for them. I needed to find an upbeat and cheerful song to use for the beginning of the opening sequence when the main character is listening to music. So, the first thing I searched for was copyright-free music for pop. The song that I found and used was Royalty Free uploaded by a YouTube channel that allows them to use their music as long as you give them credit. I used the "BreakingCopyright" YouTube channel's "Crazy About You" song for the beginning of my opening sequence. Another song that I used that was able to be free was "Mystery 7 Suspense Background Music for Films & Documentaries" by the YouTube channel "LVKEHOUSE" which allows anyone to use these sounds without any copyright claims. To find the mysterious sound effects I w...

Doing a film review + adding changes to it

 On March 11 I had my sister do a film review of my opening sequence. My sister reviewed it and said that she liked the beginning shot and the music chosen for the beginning of the opening sequence. However, she did make a few suggestions to change the lightning to make it have a more mysterious vibe. So, one of the first changes I made was to adjust the lighting to darker. To do this I clicked on my opening sequence went to the bottom of the options and chose "adjust". With these options, I was able to adjust my lighting to make it have a more mysterious vibe. She also suggested to increase the volume of the main character talking because she couldn't understand what she said in the opening sequence. I went into CapCut to fix these by increasing the volume on the parts where the main character is speaking. To do this I clicked on the audio of the scene where she was talking and there was an option to increase the volume so, I just adjusted the volume to higher to make su...
