AICE Media Studies

What technology did you learn to use? I learned a lot about how to use Blogger and its features in it. Although it is pretty generic. there are things like being able to embed videos into blogs, switching to HTML, and changing the background of the blog. Also, I've learned how to post a video and get the embed code. Without this, I would never have known what the option to copy the embed code does and how it is used. Finally, I learned more about CapCut than before. Even though I was already familiar with the app, there were things that I still wasn't aware of. Such as graphs for motion, graphs to edit color, and creating my own transitions. What did you learn about the process of putting a project together? Firstly, what I've learned about the process was the research and gathering of information. Next, would be the planning and formatting of the project before creating it. Also, the amount of time you'd have to give to create a good project. Furthermore, I've also

 This is my commercial about myself. Please enjoy.

Near the end of my commercial, I noticed how repetitive it was when it came to transitions. However, I don't want to really be all over the place and have new transitions every chance I get. So, I decided to just stick to those and just hope for the best. Since I had to keep on hearing the song over and over again, I kept my sanity by playing other things in the background. That way, I can hear something new as I repeat the same parts of the song over and over again. Also, I would go on social media to give myself a small break. But, then I would go straight back to work and continue what I needed to do. Although I do have other work, I tend to choose this project over my other homework since it's much more entertaining for me. Even though it is bad that I'm not multitasking, I always get my work done before it is due. So, that's how I usually roll when it comes to working on schoolwork. I find it very aggravating when something doesn't line up with the way that I w

 As I continue to use capcut, the more I can learn how to use it. Despite using it often, there are still techniques and features in capcut I'm still not familiar with. But with this commercial, I can step out of my comfort zone and really understand the app. So, I'm really glad I was able to use capcut to edit my commercial. Personally, I get really nitpicky when it comes to things that I'm good at. So, it is really hard not to move on with the rest of my commercial when something doesn't seem right to me. However, I am getting better at just letting minor things go since I am getting close to finishing my commercial. Also, the due date is around the corner, so I do need to pick up the pace. With that, it will get more and more difficult to end it even if there are still a lot of features I didn't get to use. Hopefully, I get to use them in my other projects. I find it crazy how there are some features only for "pro" members since there weren't any pa

 In capcut, I am doing well regarding the timing and transitions. I also decided to cut a little bit of the song since it was too long for me to get a photo for every single spot. I was able to get halfway through the music and get good transitions. However, it is getting a bit tiring near the end since I have to keep searching for more images that'll fit into the amount of shots I want to insert into my commercial. As I mentioned before, I am able to be more productive at night. So, most of the time I use my time before I go to sleep working on assignments such as this. I don't know if it's just me, but I always get a surge of productivity at night. Maybe, it is because I do not wanna go to sleep, despite me needing it badly. I tend to procrastinate on everything, including sleep. Sooner or later, it'll catch up to me and mess me up. Even though I am not done, I showed others my work so far and said that it was pretty good. Many enjoyed my transitions and how it is in

Since I already had capcut, I opened the app and began inserting the images and photos when I wanted them to appear. Capcut is easy to use and navigate, so it was a breeze to do what I wanted. As for the music, I added the song I had saved to my phone. But, I had to censor out all of the curse words in the song and try to match the instrumental with the song. It was time-consuming to line up all of the songs, to say the least, but I got it done. When it came to the transitions, it was simple for me to create the transitions that I wanted since I've dealt with editing in the past. Since I'm a perfectionist when it is something I'm good at, I tend to make it as close as I can to what I envisioned in my mind. I am very picky when it comes to timing and the beat. Even though I'm not that good at it, I find editing things to be very nice and satisfying when you get it right. Hopefully, I will be able to get a good grade on it. When it came to ordering the photos and videos,

When it came to the photos, it was tough to find good ones since I don't take many photos of myself, but I found several that would fit. I will use it from the oldest pictures to the more recent ones. However, what was impossible was to find a video of myself, it took a very long time to find a decent one of myself that was too personal. Luckily, I found videos I can use on my mother's phone. For the song, I chose Paint The Town Red, this is mostly because it has a nice beat. Of course, I will censor the explicit lyrics so it is appropriate. I decided to make it like an edit, but I will include text about myself. I have experience when it comes to video editing, and I'm sorta a perfectionist when it comes to editing. This is the first project. So, I am sort of struggling to understand what exactly will give me the full credits.  Hopefully, I can get a good grade with my vision of my commercial. Since I am going for an audience in my age range, I think a commercial that'

Hey, my name is Melissa, but (mostly) everyone calls me Noa. Ever since I was a child, I was reticent and observant. I remember in kindergarten, I would sit in a corner of the playground during recess and wait until it was over. I guess it wasn't normal, since my teacher asked me if I was okay. Throughout my life, I've had a rough time being open to people with my interests and preferences. However, I've gotten better at communication and starting up conversations. My interests are playing mobile games, drawing, reading mangas, and watching anime. When it comes to fears, I am scared of commitment and not being able to satisfy others.  Things I do not like are doing homework, being inefficient, being left out, and bitter melon soup. Something I hate is when someone is not as efficient as me and takes more steps than they need to. In the past, I wanted to be a veterinarian, but my younger self decided to change due to the amount of years you would have to do. But now, I want
