this is an animation about a bank robber that pulls off a bank heist and runs from the police using his really fast car, and great driving skills. this animation first starts off as the robber pull up to the bank in his car then it go to a shot from inside of the bank to show that there is nothing wrong (no money on the floor). Then a little suspense is added ass the screen shows onomatopieas like boom, crack, crash sounds. Then as the red lights flash the police officers chase the robbers in a really long car speed chase. The robber eventually outruns the police officers and brings the money back to his secret lair with money spread out everywhere.
how it went? what did you learn? and what obstacles did you overcome?
This was a really easy going animation because for me there was no problems with specific clips disappearing or becoming corrupted witch was a really good thing because this animation took up allot of time. There where only two problems that I had with the animation but it was becauseI could not get the keyframes correctly so the opacity was messed up in a couple shots. Things that I learned where better usage of the keyframes because learned how to use keyframes correctly ad make the animation look good. I also learned how to used the puppet pin tool because theist time that I used the puppet pin tool I really didn't really know what I was ding with the pin and starch tool. obstacles that I overcame where the puppet pin tool and storyboarding because it was a little difficult for me and the animation turned out better than my original thought.
Concepts that our group came up with was the 2017 ONW marching band. First off this was the decision because Miles and I where both in the band so this made it a little easy for us to find the people to interview and questions to ask them. Brady Stanfield is in our 3 hour and it just so happened to be that Brady is one of the drum majors, the other person that we decided to interview was Nabinder Dhillon because he is a fiend to everyone in the group. our that was that Nabinder actually being on the field could give a different view about being in the band.
What was the process
processes for making a feature story is, first we have to come up with our group and see if they know anything that would be interesting to film and talk about in this case our groups decision was the band. You also have to come up with 21 questions to ask the person that is being interviewed this way you have the interview planned out a little bit more. Story boards are used to see what the film will look like without recording, this way you actually save time because you know whats next. Roles are important to assign to the group members so that there are not 4 people all working on story boards.
My role
My main role was to be the story border and pre production person. something that I learned along the way was to remove the background sound because with Brady we recorded in the band hall, this seemed like it would be a really good place but people from debate where messing around and being really loud. during the second interview you could her band students practicing on the background witch was a little disruptive in the video.
Technically
Technical skills during this project where ok for everybody but me apparently because Adobe Premier Pro decided that it did not want to save and wanted to close down on me. plus whenever I was at home I was trying to make my voiceover but my mic cold not export things correctly and I had to use my phone before school started in the commons. I think that I was able to manage all of these disruptions in the final video tho.
Professionally
The group that I was in this time was really good at getting things done and communicating so that we could get done on time. project management for me was very important because on the first export my video did to save the voiceovers and then on the next day back to school I couldn't be in class because of the assembly, so I got put really far behind and have no idea on how I got caught up.
Different
something that I would do Different is make sure that Adobe Premier Pro saves before the computer logs off because that was a really big issue for me. another thing that I would do Different is magybenot wait tell last unit in the commons to record my voiceovers.
What I would do the same
I would like to keep the video locations and people interviewed the same because they both Nabinder and Brady gave really good explanations on why during the interviews. I also liked how this time my group was able to record and get all of the requirements done on time again. I also like how this group decided that we would all edit a different video because I like to be me and have my own vision in a video.
experiences that are learned
Some experiences learned from this project and I will defiantly keep it going onto the next project was the audio because this was a really big problem this time the other ting would be the time management and get things done on time.
Experiences drawn from this
I liked the time that I had to just start to type and let my thoughts out andante a news article. another experience that I got from this is that when typing you really have to focus on the words like grammar, spelling, and how it would sound if someone else was the reader.
General thoughts
I think that I would like to do this again but I would need people that would check ore edit it so that I can get a react good sounding news article that came from a video like this.
