Production blog - The end!

        Hope you’re having a great day bloggers and welcome back, it’s Mela! This blog is all about the finishing touches and editing that went into my commercial. One of the biggest changes I made was I actually changed one of my videos and photos. I changed the video of me as a child playing dress up to a video of me playing soccer. I liked the way this looked better and it showed my passion for soccer more. I also switched the photo of me at my first soccer game to me at camp with my work crew. Volunteering at camp was quite a big part of my summer and was such a wonderful experience that it deserved to be put in my commercial. I know it was a last minute decision but I am much more confident in my commercial now. I finished adding texts and captions to the photos and videos using Vont. I also made the text on the media smoother by adding transitions to the captions. I decided to add fun stickers/gifs to some of the clips to make it unique using an app called VLLO. 


        Besides that I put animations to all the clips to make it more lively instead of just the plain photos and videos. I also ended up slowing the speed/pitch of my audio. I did this as it ended up matching with the video better and I also needed more time in the intro video before the beat drops so slowly the audio down gave me more time. I did this using Videoleap. Most importantly I added a title to the beginning of my video “My life” and then put my name. I also changed the transitions from fade in to an “old film” transition that you’ll see in the commercial to give it a nostalgic appearance. Another small detail is I added some background noise from the actual video to make them more wholesome such as a video of my friends laughing; I included the audio of us laughing on a rollercoaster. Finally I was ready to export my videos after making all these finishing touches. I saved it to my camera roll and made sure I was 100% happy with it. The process of making this commercial was very fun and my commercial does a great job of showcasing who I really am. :)

    Hello bloggers and welcome back! My group and I have finished our filming process. I filmed today on saturday and filmed the car, restaurant and beach scenes. It started by my friends coming over around 12. While the plan was shot at the beach at night due to it being spring break Lindsay’s parents did not want her at the beach at night I had to make changes. I told everyone to bring the same costumes from before. Once everyone arrived my group and I changed into our costumes which was the sun dresses. Then my group first started in the car. In order to film the dialogue films I made sure the car was parked as it would be dangerous to try to act while driving. I took a short clip when my group was actually driving as a quick clip to add. When everyone arrived at the restaurant everyone walked in and got seated at a table. Once my group and I were seated. One of the biggest problems I faced was Emerson forget to bring her tripod. This made it harder as I had to rely on the ...

          Hey bloggers it's Mela again! Hope you are having a great day! Recently I've started to work on my commercial about me. My first step was downloading the materials necessary to create my commercial. As mentioned in my introduction blog I am familiar with some editing software already such as Imovie and Capcut. However, I decided to download some new apps with different features to create a more unique commercial. Videoleap, VLLO, and Vont are all the new apps I installed to work on my commercial or other projects in the future. After downloading the apps, I wanted, I started planning the order in which I wanted my commercial to be. However, before that, I decided to edit my photos and videos to make them how I liked. I did this by shortening some of the videos to my desired length.          After, I adjusted the effects of the videos such as the brightness, exposure, saturation, etc. I did the same for my photos. As some of the...
