music video








 we got the idea of doing the rocky video then our teacher suggested to make the video about studying for a test instead if working out so thats what we did.

 My process for this music video was to pick a song that me and my group liked and then we had to create a story to go along with the song we picked. we created this story by going scene by scene planning out what we were going to do in that scene and what shot it was going to be. Then we got a camera and went though out the school and filmed our music video.  After we are done filming we download all the shots to a computer, then we edit  the clips in to thew music video.

 Somethings i leaned while filming this music video is to always know where the tripod is in the shot so it docent get in the way or can be seen in the shot.

 Something i wanted to do different is change to more locations in the school then two rooms and the hallways.

 Some things i would keep the same is the shots were the the two character are having a stare down before they race to the board, another shot that  i like was when the main character was run we followed him with the camera.

 The experiences that I got from this project how to follow a running character with the camera and    how to make a story to go allow with a song.

  I like this project because it was fun to film and very interest.

Plausible Impossible

  This is plausible because Mickey can see his self in a mirror but impossible becasue Mickey can't walk though a mirror in real life.

 This shot is plausible because a Mickey can jump rope in real life but this is impossible because Mickey is jumping rope with a phone.

 This shot is plausible because a person can turn the volume up on the junk boxes but it is impossible because the junk box can turn its own volume up.


This shot is Plausible because Mickey can walk and carry cards but impossible because the cards can't move on their own.

This shot is Plausible because the cards can be blown
 away by a fan but this is impossible because the images on the cards can't be blown off the card.

5 layer

Three thing that I learned during this project were how to make an moving muit layered landscape view of some place. I also learned how walt Disney made his first couple films. The last  thing I learned was how using more layers that move at different speeds can created a effect of depth.

Chase scene




The main socpe of this video was to make it a chase scene or an A to B scene where the character goes from one place to another.

The process in which I Made this video was stating to pitch ideas to my partner when we found an idea that we liked we started to story board which is planning out very shot in the video. After we finished story boarding we got a camera and started filming each shot once or twice to make sure we got the shot perfect then we wen to our computer and edited the videos the we wanted. I edited my video then I put music and translations into some shots.

Some thing I learned when I was filming was not to film a close up shot in front of a reflecting surface because when you watch that clip you can see the tripod or the person filming in the window or reflective surface.

something I would do different for my next video is have a more funny or a more elaborate video. I would also try to finish my filming in first day so I have more time to take a clip that i missed or want to add.

Something that I would keep the same is the music type,  the changing scene effects and the close ups.


some experience that I will got from this project is how to film in an area with a lot of people and noise from those people also how to think a head in order to plan out the shot angles ( Cu, wide, medium)

Some general thoughts I had was that this project was very fun and a great leaning experience.

character walking, screen shot, original drawing and revised version

My character is a knight. I designed my character this way because it was a lot easier to draw and to me it looks like a knight. my thought behind my character was trying to make it look like a knight and to make a cool character.
Yes i ran into problems  when designing my character. one problem was i could think of an idea for an hour or so and i also left the arms and legs attached to my character body which was hard to fix in photoshop. Yes i had problems with the keyframes my problem was trying to get them to be close enough together to look like the character was naturally walking and make it not look like a robot. When i was creating the keyframes  i had three keyframes in a clump and this equals one step for one of the feet then the other leg would have three keyframes and it would just keep alternating until my character walked off the screen.


original version
one thing i can say about what i learned is not to have the legs and arms attached to the body when you scan your character into the computer. another is getting the legs perfectly opposite to each other when walking. the last thing i learned is to take more time toad more detail to my original design. i one issue i had while making my character walk was when the character walked it looked like a robot. if i could redo it i would add more detail tony original desgin. i feel that i did well for this being my first walking animation.


     
revised version



One thing that the people in my class say was wrong was how my character walked the legs were to close together in step time. one thing that the class sayer was good was the motion of the step. i will fixe the issue by moving the keyframes closer so there is no time in between steps which will make the feet opposite of each other.
