Hello, this is my Creative Critical Reflection video!  It was really fun to be interviewed about my questions. I hope you enjoy!

  Hey guys! This is my final product for Kaz and the girls’ opening sequence. I had so much fun making this and i I will certainly miss my group and the journey this year has been. I hope you enjoy!

Hey blogger, Sav back for the last blog. This is so bittersweet, i’ll miss talking to you! This is final editing as my group has concluded our opening sequence. As i said in the previous editing blog, I had to add some sound effects to give the video a nice scary touch. After finishing all of those edits, I added some transitions and cut down some more clips to make the film more concise. The transitions have it a nice flash and black screen every time you could hear a cutting sound on the audio I chose. Next it was time for the really important part; adding the titles. For the titles, I wanted to import some of them and add them to the scenes instead of just having them on separate screens and clips. For that, I had to insert the words of all of the required titles. For example the titles, produced by, directed. by, etc. I also explored where the coolest places to put the titles would be. In my research I found that editors for movies put them in convenient places. I also researched s...

Editing continues today! As I said in the last blog my group and i had to edit the basic things. This included picking which ones we are going to use and then cropping the clips. Also it was important to add transitions. This blog will get into the fun and exciting editing. For the very first clip I put it in a special editing app, and put a filter on it that looked like we were filming a real youtube video. Next was importing the music that I chose from this copyright free website. I chose an audio called "psycho." This audio matched our video pretty well and it matched the horror theme. I had to import the audio and then take the picture away that came with it, so you can only hear the sound and not see any picture with it. To do this, I had to put the music underneath the video so you can't see a clip of the music , you can only hear the sound. The music when imported at first did not match our clips' theme's exactly. The clips also had to be cut up because the...

 Hey blogger, Sav is here yet again. As this process comes to a close, my group has started editing this last project. As already known from past editing projects, there are many things to do. Let us get down to the basics. As i have mentioned before, the first step is to put all of the clips together. This is a big process as my group had so many clips. I filmed a lot of clips over again so I could include all of the correct angles and make it look professional. When i went into my camera roll I had about 30 little videos that i had shot and I had to narrow them down. I also had all of my group mates send me their clips as well so I could organize those. I then sent all of the clips to my computer. iMovie has been the platform my group has used to edit all of the videos. It has been a lifesaver as it is extremely user friendly. I uploaded all of the clips onto iMovie to see everything first. I then watched every single clip to see what was viable to use and what I had to delete. A...

 Hey blogger, I’m back with the last day of filming blog. As I mentioned in the previous blog, I went to the abandoned mall with Jenna, Sofia, Kaz and a couple other friends that helped out. This is day two of being at the location. In the morning Jenna our lovely driver picked us up to go back to the abandoned mall/hotel. It was the same people as the previous day. It was Sabrina, Hunter Emilia, and of course my group and I. Going back into the place we were on a mission to finish filming. I watched back what we had filmed so far to see where we left off. We had left off where Jenna ‘went missing’ in the film. This took place downstairs but I had to go back upstairs with my group to go onto the next scene. The next scene took place in the hotel part of the abandoned mall. There was a little trouble getting into the hotel area. A door was closed and jammed that let into this waiting area. Sofia was able to get the door open eventually. I put a bottle in the door so my group wouldn'...
