VIDEO DRAMA PROJECT

-


This is a short film me and my group decided to make. It is a unconventional film because it features a lesbian couple instead of the stereotypical husband and woman. We choose this twist to make our project interesting. During our planning stages, we each thought of different ideas on what to film and in the end we decided to go with this story. 
Our script was improvised due to the fact that we couldn't think of a written script, we allocated roles to ourselves and we started to film. We had to film some parts again because we felt that they weren't quite right. We also used some closeups of the main actors faces as well. 
When we were editing: we imported our short movie onto iMovie and we played around a bit with the different sound effects until we found the right ones. Most of the sound effects I used were life sound like a jazz type of music and a alarm clock. I put the arguing scene in the middle-ish part of the short movie because I thought that this would capture the attention of the viewer.
What I felt that worked was that I managed to get music that matched well to the individual shots that were filmed, some of the sound effects that I used were a bit funny as well. Next time I film, I will make sure that the shots and sound effects that I will use and shoot are in synch a bit more because I felt that I could've done a bit better when I was putting the individual shots together.

DOCTOR, PATIENT JOKE VIDEO PROJECT

What is wrong with this video; At the beginning, there is a shot of her opening the door and then opening the door again.  The Editing Method: I imported my short video on to iMovie and I clicked on new event & positioned the clips from my video on there. Then I want to the iLife sound effects and scrolled through the different sounds until I got to the sitcom laughter section (I picked the 0:17 seconds sound). I put this sound at the end of the video where the doctor doctor joke is said by the patient and the doctor because I released that it would make sense to put it at that part, instead of the beginning or the middle because the audience will most likely be confused as to why there is laughter there, when nothing funny is being said. Then, I scrolled through the iMovie sound effects and found a squeaky metal door sound, which I used at the beginning of the video, where the patient opens the door and comes in.

UPDATE ON WHAT I HAVE DONE Thursday 7th Dec

Filming: I have been doing the filming on my own in Hadiah's absence (classmate). So far I have been able to film half of the scenes we have and I am steadily making my way through each of the scenes we have. I have filmed scenes 1, 2, 4, 6 so far.  Some of these scenes have gone well in terms of filming i.e. on some of the shots I have filmed I used white balancing, I managed to get a good voiceover to accompany scene 6. But, I need to work on using the tripod more when I am filming so that the footage will not be out of focus on the screen. Editing: I have been using Premier Pro to edit the footage that I filmed for my trailer. When I was learning how to use it in class, we edited a clip on Premiere Pro which I enjoyed and found easy to use after I finished editing the clip.  Screenshot of Wolf of Wall Street clip (my version): Here is my document of feedback
