Portfolio Project - Week 8 Update 3

 Final Reflection

I'm finally done, this project has been a total energy drainer and despite how much fun I had, I'm excited to get some free time in my life again. I loved this project, as it allowed me to explore my newfound love for camera work and directing. As well as helped me grow closer to the people in my group. Starting the year out, I never would've expected that I'd know as much as I do now and I'm honestly extremely proud of myself for how far I've made it.

 CCR - Postproduction

The editing process was honestly really fun, I tried my best to maintain the satire nature of the first one with some silly transitions but also did my best to maintain the information. The second one was extremely basic, and I left it at that.

 CCR - Production

Making my CCR's was honestly really interesting. The process was really fun, as I invited one of my friends over to help me out. Our idea is meant to be a satire towards interviews with directors while at the same time answer the necessary questions. 

The second CCR was meant to be a relaxed contrast to the energy in the first one as I didn't want to make them too similar.

 GROUP MEETING #2

🙈 

We had our second group meeting for our portfolio project this week and it went really well. I personally enjoyed the first one more because my original group had more passionate people but nonetheless, I still benefitted from it. This time around we each had our ideas fully developed and the majority of the project completed thus we only really gave each other a synopsis of how our project is going and then asked each other about things we were having trouble with. For example, one of my group members told us that her story is about a dancer with a heart problem. One of the filming locations she used had a surplus of mirrors which made it difficult to hide the camera. Overall, it was really interesting meeting all these different people who each had their own ambitions with this project.

On terms of how it affected my project, all it really did was slightly change the order of my scenes. As working with an animal is really difficult. We ended up completely scrapping an entire scene and using its footage at the beginning of the film opening and it turned out pretty good.

Question 4

• How did you integrate technologies – software, hardware and online – in this project?

This question is asking how different types of technology were used in my film opening.

"How did you integrate" - This first part of the question is asking me how I combined or incorporated different technologies into making my film opening.

"Technologies – software, hardware and online" - This specifies the 3 categories of technology:

1. Software - Which are programs or applications that I used throughout the production of my film opening.
2. Hardware - Which refers to the physical devices used in the production process, like cameras and microphones.
3. Online - This final category is talking about Internet-based tools and platforms such as google drive, social media, online research, etc.

"In this project?" - This is asking specifically about my project and how all of the things prior contributed to my film opening.

Question 3

• How did your production skills develop throughout this project?

This question is asking me to reflect on my growth and improvement in my production skills throughout working on my film opening. 

"How did" - This part of the question is asking for a process or progression, basically meaning I need to explain changes over time rather than just talking about my current skills.

"Your production skills" - This refers to the technical and creative abilities I used to create my film opening. This includes editing, camera work, scriptwriting, sound design.

"Develop throughout this project" - This section of the question makes me describe where I started, the challenges I faced and how I overcame them, the new techniques I learned and used, and how my final project shows improvement.
