Hey again, today I am going to be talking about my editing. I am going to be using CapCut. This is an editing software I found. It has been a struggle if I'm being honest to continue being motivated. But I am going to keep pushing through it. Even though this has been very fun it can just be irritating at some times. This has been the first time I've used CapCut. That's why this has been a frustrating time. But I've been playing with the editing. Where I've been working with transitions. I've also been working on putting in the music with the photos.  I also used iMovie. Which is made by Apple. Some features are being able to add videos and pictures to projects. Some other features are being able to fade audio and enhance video color.  Crafting my personal commercial through photo selection and editing has been an exhilarating and enlightening journey. Each image in the final selection tells a part of my story, contributing to a cohesive visual narrative. As I g...

 Hey again, today I am going to be talking about why I picked my photos for my commercial.  Before diving into the selection process, it's essential to have a clear understanding of the narrative and message I want to convey. What makes me unique? What story do I want to tell? Answering these questions helps guide the entire commercial and selection process for these photos. I had trouble deciding on my photos. I ended up picking a photo of a gym. Then a picture of a Chipotle logo. Lastly, I picked a picture of Ice Cube. I picked the photo of the gym because the gym has changed my life over the past year. It has helped me become more self-confident and meet new people. It also allowed me to build better friendships. I picked the Chipotle logo because of how much I love Chipotle. Chipotle also helped me on my weight loss journey. The food I got gave me the ability to reenergize myself without eating too much. Then I picked the photo of Ice Cube because he wrote the first song I...

 Hey again, today I am going to be talking about how I implemented my song into my video. The song I picked was today was a good day by Ice Cube. I picked this song because it felt like it resonated with what I was trying to say. By using this song it conveys that even though sometimes you can face adversity you can still have a new day. Another song I picked was Don't Stop Believing by Journey. I picked this song because its main purpose talks about not giving up which really relates to me. In the first part of the commercial I used Today Was A Good Day. I used that song first because of its upbeat tone. Another reason I picked it was because it is a very well-known song. The reason I chose to add Don't Stop Believing 2nd was because it fit the tone of my commercial. This was because I like to think I am a person that doesn't give up easily. I used the song because its well-known. Then I started the editing process. It started off very difficult because I haven't used ...

 Yesterday I started on my commercial. I started by gathering all the facts I came up with about myself. Which include my love of football, fishing, and water sports. Then I downloaded iMovie and capput. These 2 apps helped me in making my Commercial. I had some complications filming because my phone died. Then my mom told me I had to eat dinner (I got Chick-fil-A). After eating I resumed my filming.  Where I kept talking about me and what I like. Things such as Madden, Chipotle, and Chick-fil-A. Things I like about Madden are that I can build my own NFL team with players from the past, present, and future. Things I like about Chipotle are the bowls. Where I get white rice, black beans, chicken, salsa, corn salsa, sour cream, cheese, and lettuce. Things I like about Chick-fil-A are the grilled nuggets, the fries, and the ice cream. I filmed at my house and in my room. I had an issue with filming because my dogs started barking and tried coming into my room. So I had to pause f...

           Today I am going to be talking about how I did my research and planning for my All About Me Commercial. I picked these photos because they felt like they represented me the most.  One photo I picked was of a gym. I picked this photo because since April I have been going to the gym and it has changed my life. One of the ways it changed my life is physically. Since getting into the gym I have lost over 30lbs and gotten significantly stronger. Another way it's changed my life is the relationships I have made in the gym. Since joining the gym I have gotten closer to a core group of people who all go to the same gym as me. Since meeting each other we all tend to go to the gym together every week. The gym has also improved my mental health. Since becoming a member of the gym I have become more positive about my body and how I treat myself.   The song I picked was "It Was a Good Day" by Ice Cube. I picked this song because I really felt t...

 What's up my name is Aidan Poole and I am a sophomore at FLHS. I am 15 years old soon to be 16 on September 29th. I am very interested in football, especially with the NFL season about to start. 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. Recently I've started to go boating with friends out in the ocean and inland. Last Saturday I went with 2 friends on a 44-foot boat to go deep-sea fishing. We ended up catching 12 fish between the 3 of us. When I'm not on the water on at school I am at the gym with friends or attending football games. I started going to the gym in 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...
