Production Blog: Making final edits.

 I continued to finish editing on where I left on. I'm working on the next scene where the girl keeps checking her phone for a message from her ex. But, ends up throwing it on the floor because, he hasn't answered her all day. For this scene I use the fade-in effect. To do this I went to "effects" and chose the "fade-in effect". After, I use the fade-out effect after she threw the phone on the floor. To do this I clicked on the scene. Then went to "effects" and choose "fade-out". The next scene is an over-shoulder and pan shot of her at the river reading the letter the girl ex boyfriend wrote for her. For this scene it started with the effect "fade-in". I decided not use ay transitions for the next of her throwing away the letter in the trash can. This is because, I thought it look good already without it since, this scene had a low angel. I felt that it was able to convey the message through this low angel so, I left it how it was. The next scene is an establishing shot of Publix. This scene is supposed to represent the girl moving on from her boyfriend. The transitions I used is "fade-in" for the beginning shot when she walks into Publix and out with flowers. Then a "zoom" effect in the scene with a middle-shot of her holding flowers. To do this I clicked on the scene. Went to "transitions" and choose "zoom effect". Then at the end of this scene I used the "fade-out" effect to transition to the next scene. The next scene is the last scene of the girl at her desk writing a letter that's for new beginnings. The effect I used for this is scene is called "cross dissolve". I used this effect as it transitions from the scene her leaving her desk to is a zoom effect of a text message on her phone from her ex. To do this at the end of the scene she leaves her desk I put the "cross dissolve" effect by clicking on the scene. Going to effects and choose "cross-dissolve". The for the last scene of the phone I choose the zoom effect by doing the same steps for the "cross-dissolve" effect expect choosing "zoom". That was the last thing I needed to do for the music video making it complete. Thank you for reading and bye.

Group Blog

 For this project, I'm going to be working by myself. However, my sister will help me with the filming part. My sister's name is Natalie. I chose her to help me film because it would make the opening sequence better. I wanted to work by myself on this project because I felt like I could make a good opening sequence by myself and with the help of my sister. I could do a better job being by myself because I don't have to stress on relying on others if they did their part and I'm able to have total control of making something that I want to do. My sister and I are different so, for this opening sequence, she can help or contribute a few suggestions to make this a good opening sequence. I can use Natalie because she is my sister we both take this class but, in different periods. Since I'm her sister I know what her work ethics are like. And I can trust her that she will help me with making the opening sequence. For this project, my sister is going to help me with the fi...

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...
