Forum 4: The Animatic



What I Learned
I learned a lot of new information when making my animatic. I gained a lot of new knowledge after using Adobe Premier for the first time. To be honest, when I first started using Premier I had no idea what I was doing. It took me some time to learn the material, but after awhile I started figuring out how to do each step of this assignment. I learned how to upload my audio into the app and match up pictures to it. It was tough to find pictures and transfer them over, but after struggling with it, I figured it out. I feel comfortable creating sequences now and I am excited to pursue this project and use Premier in the future.

What I Couldn't Figure Out
The only real thing I struggled with was figuring out how to get my audio story into Premier. At first, I tried putting it onto my flash drive, but the computer would not read it. So, I asked a classmate for help, and he helped me download it from Soundcloud. Then, I was able to find it in Premier and easily import it and work with it in a sequence.

Videos That Were Helpful
When I began to do my animatic, I forgot some tips to use when starting, so I watched the "What is premier pro" video. It went over the basics and it helped me refresh my memory on how to use the app. It was helpful to me to start my project out from scratch, and as I went on I was able to figure more out on my own.

Still Image Final Project

Introduction: This is my still image final project. It is not much different than the last blog forum assignment, but it is much cleaner, and has much more flow. Before, it was very choppy and inconsistent, but I made it align with the audio, and added more pictures. It created a very smooth project, and seems much more detailed. I still did not include b-roll film. I could not really find anything to use for my topic. It was tough to come up with ideas to do so. I was able to add more text and include shapes to make my text more visible for the viewer. My Still Image:

Forum 5: Visual Communication

Introduction For my video, I used words for a visual explanation in my work. I put what certain people said in spots to show someone who can't hear what is going on in my video. I tried to be detail enough without using too many words and make my video too wordy. What I Did and Didn't Do I was able to use words to tell the story that my video is telling. I wrote certain words to give cues to represent visual communication. I feel I could have been better with making the words have effects to them. I was pretty boring, and for my final project I might consider using solid backgrounds to make the words pop out at you without taking away the effect of the picture. I also, would like to use more fade-ins and fade-outs to make my pictures more interesting. Also, I still have house B-roll in my sequence. My Video
