Here are some representative film clips that I made in week 1, in order to play with the camera. I didn’t upload it at first cause I don’t think they are important, now I see they represent my learning experience and exploration on camera angle, infrared mode and composition. They are very inspiring for my final video.

Week 8 HW

 

I was 100% sure we had homework but I couldn’t find it on Moodle, so I did the next thing a student could do when confused about assignments. Ask my peers!

I shot the clips first because I was sure our work was either to do with a voiceover or text within video (spoiler alert it was the voiceover).

Since I decided to go work on another assignment downstairs, I thought I would record the process (part of it at least) and then boom. Two birds with one stone.

Once I realised I was doing a voiceover I played the video and narrated to my phone.

Perhaps next time I’ll combat my impatience and plan out what I’d say first rather than just say whatever comes to my mind.

Week 8: Text Video

Text video is something that I would like to try and I’m glad that we had the opportunity on class. Making a text video is more convenient than making a visual postcode or audio postcode, yet it is challenging to construct meaning with mere words, font and colour.

Moreover, this is a trial for my final assessment. I aim to pill up words and still image to stimulate my audience frequently. I don’t know whether I succeed, I only know for sure that this editing style took too much time. I might adjust my plan of final assessment.
