23rd -27th march
My reflective log for the week of 23-27 of March 2020. It’s
been hard and complicated to do work from home. This is because of me having to
get use to a new environment of workspace. This has affected my work a lot from
not being able to go outside and do what I actually wanted to do. My whole idea
for my work was a Music Video. But me not being allowed to go outside my house
to record is causing an issue with what I can and can’t do. I’ve had many ideas
on what I can actually do and what I can’t do. I wasn’t planning of having to
work from home and need to think of different ways to actually record my music
video. I’ve come up with a few ideas, but I don’t think I would have enough
time to complete them.
On Monday I was contacting the person I went and did my trip
with. I had to call him and ask him what clips I can use to upload it onto my
blog. I was allowed to upload 2/3 clips this was with the artists knowing and
giving me permission.
On Tuesday I was fixing up my 1500 words due to me speaking
more about what I am than what I actually want to do. I changed many things in
the 1500 words because of the issue which is currently occurring around the
world and me not being able to leave the house.
On Wednesday I was carrying on with fixing some errors in
the proposal and also making it easily readable with no slang. Once finishing
the 1500 words I had went and started to finish of my proposal as this was left
in a rush when I was needing to do some experimentation and collecting work
from the pc and macs in college before colleges and schools were closed.
30th march to 3rd April
This was the second week at home carrying out work. I have
started to look into different ways on how I can complete my work. I have faces
issues due to the ongoing issue which is affecting us. I have asked teachers
for support on what I can do to get the best grade possible. I had a few ideas
in mind which was me creating a series of story boards which include everything
which is needs in a music video. This will include things such as shots, shot
sizes, camera movements, props which were to be used, timings.
I have also seen more music videos to see what they have
done to plan the shots they do. Some story board it and some music video
producers shoot music videos in one shot meaning the whole music video is shot
in one area and does not cut anywhere.
I have carried on researching into music video producers and
editors as I would have to do both. I have also looked into different editing
techniques. These techniques were tricky at first but when trying them out myself
I found that it was not as hard. The only thing which ruined the experimentation
was the fact that I was only using still images I had and not videos. These
effects need videos as one effect I had saw was an eyeball effect where the pupil
of the eyeball starts showing the music video and has a transition from there.
Half Term
20th – 23rd April
During the half term I have been listen to many music videos
and finding out who edited the music videos. I have been looking into two visual
editors’ names Troy Roscoe and Kaylum Dennis. These two have been growing there
visual editing for a long time but within the last month they have created
videos for major artist that is how I found them.
I have been looking into them this whole week. I wanted to
see what types of visuals they ha used in their work. I had found out that they
learnt all their skills from YouTube tutorials I have watched visual effects tutorials
this week and been looking into which effects will help me carry my work out
the best ability. All the skills and tutorials I have been watching are from YouTube.
