  What's up Cambridge today I am going to be introducing my group members. This year I am working with a new group. This is because my group from last year has decided to not continue with A-level this year. But this year I'm working with a new group. I am going to be working with my classmate Ameile De Kegal.  She is someone who I am friends with and who I go to youth group with. I decided to work with her because of her strong work ethic and overall smartness. Overall I am looking forward to working with everyone in my group. I am looking forward with exploring this new challenge with someone new.  This new project we are starting is our final task. This is where we will make an opening sequence of an original film. I chose to work with this group because I get along with them well. I also chose to work with them because of their success in the last project. I am very much looking forward to working with them. They are all very smart and very good people. We believ...

Intro B

  What's up my name is Aidan Poole and I am a junior at FLHS. I am 17 years old. I am very interested in football, especially with the NFL season and have been keeping up with football.  I am in multiple fantasy leagues where you draft NFL players and make your own team based on the players you draft. It is a good way to connect with your friends outside of school and in a fun environment. I've continued with going out boats and I've started working on boats. Where I took a 72-foot boat and moved it to another house. We ended up having a great time and got the boat there safely. When I'm not on the water or at school I am at the gym with friends or attending football games. I started going to the gym last January because I wasn't happy with how I saw myself. Since then I've lost over 40lbs due to consistently going to the gym and implementing a new diet. It has helped me so much with my physical and mental help because it has drawn me closer to a lot of people. ...

Re-Editing Blog: Getting Everything Finished

Image
 Hey blog what's up I'm back. As you know from the last blog we had to reshoot scenes 8-9. The reason we had to reshoot these scenes was due to our findings in editing this final task. We found that our scenes weren't able to fit transitions and that there were issues in the videos themselves. There was also the issue that scene 8 was too short and scene 9 was way too long. This led to our objective for our time being thrown off. So we added the new scenes we shot and applied our transitions. This took around 20-30 minutes. But then we ran into another issue. Since we used a different phone during the filming process of the retake the resolution of our video was off. So we tweaked the resolutions of all the other parts of the film to match. This took around 15 minutes to complete. After we completed this we moved on to finishing our title. We also applied our titling to this new part of the film. Finishing the title was easy taking only around 10 minutes.  The application t...

Re-filming Blog: Scenes 8-9

Image
 Hey blog what's up I'm back. Today I'm gonna give you an update on my final task. When we looked back on all of our different scenes it seemed as if we were going to have to reshoot scenes 8-9. We were rushed during these scenes so they looked sloppy compared to the others. Some of our group members thought we shouldn't reshoot, but we eventually agreed to. I'm glad we agreed that reshooting would be the best course of action so that first-time viewers could fully be immersed in our film. Our original mistakes were minimal but were noticeable. They included being able to hear one of our members (Mia) in the other room when she was on a call. The other mistake was when filming scene 9 it took 15 takes and there were visible signs of laughing on our lead (Rowyn's face). I don't know why we couldn't keep our composer but I guess we caught a case of the giggles.  For this issue, our other group member (Kylie) gave us focal points to look at. This was to ens...

Editing Blog: Wrapping Up Editing

Image
 Hey, blog I'm back. Today I am going to be wrapping up the editing process. I had planned on finishing editing last night but had to do some final touches today. When school finished I planned on going to Starbucks to finish editing. After school ended I drove to Starbucks where I remembered that I needed to finish other work. So I finished that work and began to edit. First I loaded up where I had left off on my computer. I had to add the music we had chosen previously to the Final Task. So I added the music to make sure each scene had it either in the background or louder in certain scenes depending on whether or not it was needed. After I did this I started to make sure the video was under the time limit. After I realized it was at the sweet spot for time. I was happy that every element could be shown in our video. Then I added some final touches. Where I made sure all the transitions were correct. I also had to make sure whether or not the scenes were in order to tell the stor...
