Reflection

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 learned about the time management that is required for making a project come together. Since this is my first time doing such, I wasn't aware of all of these steps and pieces I had to do before and during working on my project. So, it was a struggle to balance this with my other work. However, with all of that now in my mind, I think I'll be able to create better projects in the future.

What do you think you can do to make the next project better?

What I can do better, is to create a more slow-paced video. This is because I realized that creating something that's pretty fast-paced will confuse people and cause them to get lost watching my video. Also, fast-paced videos would be too fast for some to watch and hurt their eyes trying to keep up with the video. Another thing is how I manage my time since I would always work at night, which is really unhealthy. So, if I did it when I came home and not wait until night, I would be more efficient with my time. Try to post my video as a YouTube video instead of a YouTube shorts. This is due to the fact that my prior attempt at embedding it when it was a YouTube shorts was the reason why others couldn't view my video. It was only when it was a normal video, that people were able to see it.

ROLE CALL

For the movie intro, I have decided to work alone instead of in a group. There were a multitude of reasons why I decided to work alone. This happened because my friends in media studies already had the maximum number of people in their groups. Also, I didn't want to ask people I did not know. Another reason is that I was concerned about not participating enough to the point where I couldn't really talk about the contributions I made to the music video. Even though it may be more difficult since I will have to do all of the work. I think it will be alright since I have adapted to being by myself. Yes, I did want to work in a group, but there's nothing to it if everyone I know already has groups with the maximum amount of people. Besides, it will also give me more freedom when it comes to this and I will not feel awkward or self-conscious about my actions. Also, I'll be able to do my work without being held back or having to do someone's work. The more that I think ab...

Re-Editing Blog: Finishing Touches

Image
What's up, gang. When it came to editing, I had to remove all of the scrapped scenes that I did not like. Then, I replaced them with the clips I redid. To call it tedious was an understatement, it was rough. Not only did it mess up my title screen, but it also messed up with the transitions I had. So, it was very infuriating to redo all of that as well. As I edited my project, I got the gist of it and began mindlessly editing. That way, I could trick myself into thinking that it is going way faster than it actually is. However, while editing, I was messing with my project when I accidentally closed out of it while trying to exit out of a notification. Not only did I accidentally lose most of my progress, but it also meant that I had to restart the splicing and editing of the three clips. So, I had to remove those clips and redo all of those clips. Also, I had to fix the transitions from the other clips that were next to those clips since they also got messed up. I was filled with r...
