Refining the Piece

Image
Welcome back guys, I finally finished editing my video from the feedback I received from my friends. I went into CapCut, and edited what my friends told me to edit. The first issue was the clearness of video. To fix, this I did changes some elements up and I made it look to cohesive. The next issue was the lighting, so of the lighting was different between scenes. Luckily, I didn’t have to re film this part, and I just messed with the brightness, and saturation, by lowering them in some scenes and raising them in other scenes. But of course, I couldn’t be exactly precise and exact, so the lighting doesn’t completely match up. But it’s similar enough that you shouldn’t be able to tell a difference or focus on it. Next, was the off centered title. This was an easy fix, I just moved over a little bit, and look if it was actually centered. Finally, the last problem was the water bottle in the background of the scene. I wasn’t able to edit it out, as my editing skills aren’t at that level y

Navigating the Feedback

Welcome back guys, Last time I finished and completed my project completely. I edited, embedded the titles, and transitions, and picked and put in my song. I said I will get feedback from my friends and some other people, so that I could improve it. I spent if couple of days showing my friends the video. And I got tons of feedback back from them. So, of course beforehand I mentioned the one man show thing, so that they wouldn’t get confused. Even with that they got a little bit confused, so they suggested somehow added more emotion to a scene to make it clearer. I might have to re film it if it doesn’t work out, but we’ll see. They also commented on the lighting. They said that in some of the consecutive scenes the lighting is slightly different, and that I should change it to match up. But that easy since I can use CapCut to lower or heighten the brightness. Another person said that one of my titles was off centered. So, I plan on moving it over. They said that they liked everything e

Fine-Tuning

Welcome back guys, last time I film my project, all by myself, and had to do a sort of one man show. It was interesting to say. Anyways, edited and pieced together everything. I realized that the video was going to be too long, so cut cut some of the scenes out such as scene 8, and 18. I modified each component's color, saturation, contrast, and brightness using CapCut. I tried to create a mystery mood of what I could with the video. To keep the project's proportions the same, I cropped the videos to the same size. I also removed parts of it. I added the tilted in order, and in the background, so that it look cool, and blends in. I added a bunch of transitions such as fades and mixes, dissolves, and some others to the video. Next, I added the song, but it took some time. I kinda put the song in the back on my head so I forgot to message the writers of the original song I was going to do. But it was okay since, the song really didn’t match anymore with video. So, I went on YouTu

One Man Show

Welcome back guys, yes, I know, I’ve taken a little bit of a break, but that’s because everything fell apart over the weekend. Well not everything, but just some parts. So basically, my kinda bailed on me. What happen what that we were planning to film somewhere in a park or somewhere else. I would help them; they would help me with all of the acting and camera work. But they had an emergency so they couldn’t do it anymore, nor could they do it the next week. I guess it isn’t their fault, but I was a little bit mad, not at them per say, but at the whole situation. I was panicking, again, but I decided to just do a sort of one man show, because it would be the easiest in my current situation. So that’s what I did, I filmed the bulk of the project over the weekend, and I was every single character. And yes, it looks weird and embarrassing, but that what I get for not filming on my trip. Everything which usually happens when I film, happened. I set up all of the different places where I h

Editing Since Have Nothing Else to Do

Welcome back guys, given that I'm planning to film the majority of it over the weekend. I made the decision to edit some of the scenes I currently have. Because CapCut is free and simple to use, I'm going to use it to make my project and handle all of the edits. I will concentrate my attention to scenes 6, 7, and 8. As I don't have extra time to do more. But I'll finish most of it after the weekend. Also, I've edited with CapCut before because I used it on my last two projects. In order to make the images and video easier to find, I carefully organized them into a folder. To ensure that the images blended together flawlessly and looked good throughout the entire video, I used CapCut to change the color, saturation, contrast, and brightness of each component. This allowed me to choose the tone and mood of the work; the colder tones suggested reflection and mystery. I cropped the videos and photos to the same size in order to maintain the project's size. I also cu
