Fall Film


A few days ago I wrote about the progress of my fall film.  The assignment was to capture fall anyway we wanted to in 60 seconds.  I finally finished mine!

I have shots of trees that I saw and looked cool and leaves on the ground.  I also have shots of a creek and path near my house which look really nice in the fall.  I have various Halloween decorations and I have some different fall foods.

I'm really happy with how my video turned out.  I found an effect called "Old Film" in WeVideo which I added to my video and I really like.

If the time that I actually spent on the project is added it up, it isn't really much time; however there are gaps of about a week between the times I spent working on different sections of the project.  I first started working on the project a few days after it was assigned.  I did all the filming and the next day I put all the clips into wevideo.  Then, during our days off because of the hurricane, I did all of the editing and found the music I wanted.  I couldn't figure out how to import music into wevideo but today I finally learned how so I added the music to complete my video.

A few times when I was editing I got pretty frustrated with WeVideo.  It wouldn't let me put transitions between all the clips and I found it difficult to figure out how to cut clips and import the music I wanted.  Also, when I tried to export my video to YouTube I couldn't find where it exported to for awhile. Once I figured all that out though WeVideo worked really well.

All in all, I actually liked this assignment and I'm really happy with how my video turned out.

Pre- Fall Video

So last weekend I was working on my fall video.  The assignment is to "Capture the Fall" and make a 60 second video doing so.

I went to the bike path near my house and recorded the creek, a bridge, some leaves, a biker and a bunch of other stuff.  I also recorded various Halloween decorations I saw around and liked.

During our days off this week I worked on editing my video.  I used wevideo to use it and it worked really well, however it was kinda wierd because my video kept getting SHORTER, when I wasn't cutting clips.  Oh well, it all worked out.

I just have one more thing to do before my video finishes which is adding music.  I found some music that I like that I think works with my video except I can't figure out how to import it into wevideo.  I think that wevideo might not let you import music which is really frustrating. They (meaning wevideo) have their own selection of music to choose from which I'll probably just end up doing.

I'll have the video ready to post next week so I'll probably be adding on to this post then.
