Sound project

 What I've learned these past couple of days from sound lessons and videos is that it is essential to convey the tone and mood during a scene. 

What I had to do for the sound project was make a short video entirely using only sounds with no visuals.

During brainstorming, I thought of different events or places where sounds are essential to how it feels. My outline was a football game and it helped by know what to look for and how I wanted the sounds to be arranged in my project. The editing application that I used was Premiere Pro

What was done well was the order and types of sounds used but what I would like to improve would be the timing of the sounds. 

One Word Film Project

The directions of One Word Film was to create a short film about a given word, using different camera shots and editing techniques to tell the story without any dialogue.  

During brainstorming for this project writing down and story boarding my ideas helped a lot with the creative process. My storyboard helped a lot because it is the idea for what is going to be shown in the film. I edited my project with iMovie. 

I think the stronger parts of the project were the visuals and different shots and techniques. Next time I would like to improve the story and the editing.

Camera Shots/Angles Quiz

 The directions of this activity had students select one or two inanimate objects to create a visual story. Using 15 shots, you have to include particular types of shots in your 15. 

I approached the project's development by brainstorming with my partner and storyboarding each shot we had in mind. 

What I believe I did well was the storytelling and using specific shots at the right times which can help emphasize the story and characters. Something I would like to improve would be the quality of the production like better graphics, props, locations, etc.

I do not have the file as it was my partner who submitted the project on his device.
