Personal Project review-Video

Featured review

For this project we were told that we needed to come up with a featured story. After brainstorming different ideas I nailed it down to the pressure of student athletes. I tried to mainly focus on students here at northwest that live the busy lifestyle. I tried to dig the deep details out of students by interviewing some of them. My process for completing this video was the initial idea, interviewing, and taking b-roll. I learned how to sequence the clips together with the help of Mr.Cooper. Professionally, I learned how to get correct b-roll for my video to help to make sense. What I would different would be getting more b-roll and remembering to turn on the sound so I could get some natural noise in my video. What I would do the same would be the interviews because I felt like my interviews were very strong throughout the whole video. The experiences that I will draw from this video would be the out of school video shooting which I found was very tiring because I had to do a lot of walking around the school.

Interview Review 

     Our latest assignment we were given was to do an interview with someone in our class. My process that I proceeded to do was to first do my actual interview with my partner Courtney Honors. I talked with Courtney about her summer trip and moved on once I got the right information. Once I had all my clips I made a script that matched with the topics from the interview. After I completed my voice overs and embedded them into my video I realized that the video is missing something called B-roll. B-roll taught me that It helps bring the video together and make it more organized. I learned that it is difficult to get B-roll when the event has already happened. For my next interview I will make sure my voice over doesn't just ask the questions and then the interviewee answer them. What I would do the same would be to include B-roll which will help make the video make more sense. The experiences I will draw from this project will be the face-to-face interview which defiantly helps with life skills.
