Introduction Blog

  Hi, welcome back my name is Elizabeth Ehney. I go to Fort Lauderdale High School. I'm 15 years old in grade 10 and the classes I'm taking this year are AP human geography, AICE English language, Algebra 2, Chemistry, AICE psychology, AICE European history, and AICE media studies. I'm really excited about my classes this year because, they seem really fun and interesting to learn about so, I'm looking forward to seeing what is coming. Something to know about me is that I take school seriously it is one of my main priorities that I work hard for. As long as I'm doing my best I don't worry about my grades because I know it's something that I gave my all towards. A few things that I like are swimming, clothes, hanging out with my friends, and watching TV shows. I started learning how to swim the strokes last year in October I was taking lessons then, in November I joined a swim team. However, I ended up taking a break in March for a couple of months. I wanted to swim again and I decided to join the swim team this year for my school. It's fun but it's also hard. I'm not the best at swimming it could be a struggle but, it's something that I'm working on because I want to improve and get better. I love clothes it's something that makes me really happy and I love to put outfits together. Putting on new outfits brings me joy and it makes me feel good about myself. In general, when I choose what to wear I make sure that my outfit meets my expectations because it's something that I like to do. I used to never hang out with my friends because I didn't like it but now I love to spend time with them and hang out whenever I can. It makes me feel closer to them and have a better connection with them. My best friend's name is Stella and she is like my other half In the beginning we weren't as close but not were pretty close. We go to the mall together, our houses, text each other, and do many other things. Another thing that I like is TV shows specifically Asian dramas like Korean, Chinese, and Thai. I started getting into watching them when I was in 8th grade and since then I'm addicted to them. I love watching them the storylines are so interesting and different compared to American TV shows. And have really good messages to them. To conclude another thing to know about me is that I have two dogs one girl and one boy. I have four siblings two brothers and two sisters. Thank you for reading and  I'm excited to continue making these blogs. Bye.

Adding transitions and overlays

 On February 27 I continued to edit my opening sequence. On this day I did overlays and added transitions. I wanted to add an overlay for the scene when the main character was calling her friend on the bed. To do this I changed my own contact's name to "bestie" and made it look like I was calling someone. I took a picture of the call. Then imported the picture to CapCut. To do this I clicked on the "add photo" at the bottom of CapCut and then chose the photo I wanted. After I clicked on the photo went to the options on the bottom and chose "overlay". After choosing the overlay I dragged it to the scene where I wanted. Adjusted the size and placed it on top of my phone. Then adjusted the length of the overlay of how long I wanted to have it on the screen. This was a little bit hard to do because I hadn't done something like this before. So, to add this overlay it took about forty-five minutes or more to do. I did the same steps for the "unknown...

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...
