Using an iPad and editing tools, I created a snow day video. We took the song all i want for Christmas By Mariah Carey and changed the 4th verse to fit a snow day song. Then went to an entertains area so that there would be snow in the background (that did work so good). After that we did a lot of practicing and had a lot of trial and error but then we finally good one that i thought was good enough.
During this process, I learned how to use imovie's editing software. Its was a little confusing at first because i couldn't find out where you had to click to get the editing tool to work so in had to google it. It turns out that you have to click on the video and then you drag the line thing and then hit the button that looks like scissors and then it will cut it for you .
Some standards that my project tied to was innovative design because we made a video and edited the length of the video and tired to turn up our voices with a iPad and then put it on our website on a computer for everyone to see. Also digital citizen because i used the internet to, find a song to remake, to record the song, to edit the song, and then to post and send it for others to see.
A challenge I overcame on this project was getting over my fear of being in front of a camera . I overcame this by not thinking about it and also thinking that there was a lot worse thing i could have to be doing right now . Another challenge that i overcame was remembering the words to the song. So we decided to write them out in big letters so that all of us could see them. Then sat them beside the camera.
If i ever did this again i would spend more time on editing because i was rushing to get it cut and people were trying to talk to me and i kept getting distracted which i then cut the video to short. I also tried to turn down the background music in the video and turn up are voices so you could actually hear what we were saying but i couldn't find out how you did that without amplifying the background music to. I would change this because you couldn't here us very well you could hear the music and that really all. Also i would have put more time and concentration in to it so that i did accidentally cut out my partners voices saying that it was a snow day.
This project connect to careers in many way fro example if you were to work in the movie filled you would need to know how to cut and edit a movie and how to record thing also the same if you were in the music industry. Or Also if you were going to work with filming you then would know how to use a camera and how to upload things.
