Production blog: Finding our music


 Hey blog! its me again.  After my group mates and I finished editing we only had the music part left. We all agreed with using free music instead of asking for copyrights because it would be risky and could take way longer. We went on Royalty Free music. We decided to split up and find our own songs that we were looking for and vote on the best one. I opened royalty free music on youtube and searched up the theme of the song we were looking for. I went through at least 25 videos before finding the first one. As I listened to the songs and audios I pictured and played the film we made. After finding my first one it took me a while to find the next 3. At first I was relieved to find at least one, 5 minutes later i found the second one. It took me really long to find the third one i was close to giving up. I searched for hours to find one. This was probably one of the most hardest things to find for my final task. I decided to take a break after 7 videos because i began to get frustrated. I went to the kitchen to get a few snacks and come back to continue looking. After 3 more videos I finally found the right video. This helped me become less stressful. Afterwards I realized we needed about 3 small effect sounds as well. These were not as difficult to find. After giving my group time as well and we reunited to compare our songs. Most of our songs were the same and some were different. We agreed on the ones that were the same. After that I listened to my groupmate's' that were different. We officially picked the ones we needed and proceeded to add it on to the film. That's it for today blog! Until next time. Karina logging off.

Title Research: Art of the Title Website

 Hello everyone,     Welcome back to another blog! Today, I will be discussing with you our websites on title research. The title design in opening sequences is extremely important. So, it’s equally as important to properly plan. Because of this, my group has made sure to use the best websites to research our titles and title research. The two websites I have chosen for this research are http://www.artofthetitle.com/ and http://www.watchthetitles.com/. These websites are really good for many reasons. The first is that art of the Title website has movies from around the world, which is really good for variety and helps to research broader styles and genres.     Additionally, the site features title designs of film, television, conference, and video game industries. Again, this is very good for a broad selection. The other website, Watchthetitles.com, has over 200 title sequences, along with video interviews, and articles about movie titles. They are both great we...

Comparing Le Jetee, the short, and 12 Monkeys, the full-length movie

     Hey, blog! It's me again, today, I'll be comparing a short and a full-length film for my research. I'll be examining La Jetée and 12 Monkeys .      I watched a video that compares 12 Monkeys and La Jetée , and it discussed how the feature film naturally extends the short, building on the original ideas. The video also touched on how both films explore the inevitability of certain events.  In La Jetée , the short film, the protagonist is caught in a loop, unable to change the outcome. In contrast, 12 Monkeys takes this concept further, with the main character attempting to prevent a catastrophic event. The way time is portrayed in both films is crucial to their themes, and the video highlights how this theme is central to both works. The video also showed me how manipulating time plays a critical role in storytelling. Time travel is a central theme in both films, but La Jetée uses photography to reinforce the unchanging nature of time, while 12...

critical creative reflection

     In this music video I have learned a lot from my groupmate's and technology. The process wasnt easy but it was done. In our music video my group and I decided to challenge the conventions. In the genre most of it follows what the song is saying or shows two scenes but goes back and forth. In our music video we made a script in which we acted out what the song felt like for us. One meaning we had of the song was drifting apart from a relationship and learning to let go, the other was realizing your actions and feeling guilt after. An issue this music video represented was jealousy and how it can come over your actions. The girl (maddie) realized that her friend and boyfriend were cheating behind her back and she took action by drowning the girl. A group this video could affect would be jealous people or people who cheat and lead people on. It could help them to understand how their actions can really affect people from the other side and be considerate. This music vid...
