Initial Storyboard

 


Summary: This week, Theresa, Peter, and I began to outline what our film opening would look like by creating a storyboard. This will help us come up with a script and figure out when we should transition into the next scene. We all came up with the idea of our opener being based around a high school softball and baseball player, who will be played by Theresa and Peter. I will act as a college scout from FGCU, looking for them to play for the school at the next level. The purpose of this is to show what a high school athlete goes through when they are trying to play at the collegiate level. 

    The first scene is Theresa and Peter walking out to the dugout for practice. This shot will establish and set up the opener. Next, they will be in the dugout showing all the equipment they need for practice. Following this, Theresa and Peter will be throwing a ball back in forth to warm up, when they see me sitting in the bleachers wear an FGCU shirt and carrying a clipboard. Confused, they walk over to me where I explain that I am a college scout looking to give them college offers. The opener will end with me handing both of them envelopes.

 This week we continued to edit our film and finalize the background music. Since we did most of our editing last week, all that was left was to focus on adding the music which can be seen in the image below. Then, Theresa, Peter, and I looked over our opener one last time. Almost everything from last week remained the same. We had the same title, fonts and kept from adding any more visual effects or transitions, as it would disrupt the flow of the film.  For adding audio, we had to look up legalities for adding and uploading music on your computer then into iMovie, the editing app we used.  One of the problems we faced was uploading music that we liked and wouldn't be copyrighted. However, after watching tutorials we figured out how to do it.  This took us two class periods to figure out.

Week 6- Editing

      This is what Theresa's screen looked like while editing. While Peter and I helped out, Theresa editing the main parts and added music.     These are different photos taken from all of us editing different parts of the movie opener. We all discussed what order the clips should go in and made sure they were all the same length.     We placed titles at the end of the movie opener to create a more suspenseful and dramatic atmosphere. We titled our opener "The Next Level," as it seemed fitting for highschool athletes who are signing onto be a part of the collegaint level. The best place for the title seemed to be in the center.          Some of the different video effects used were fade away, cross-dissolve, and cross blur.   Fadeaway was used most of the time because it provided a seamless transition into the next clip.           During the editing process, the decision was made to use ...
