Editing the CD

Firstly using an elliptical marquee tool I formed a CD shape from the yellow background.

Then, I added different layers to add texture and depth. A mask of the CD shape was added to each of these layers.


 I imported an image of Sheece and removed the green screen (using the colour range option in the 'select' section). The image was colour graded and duplicated. A channel colour was removed in the blending options and the duplicated image was slightly displaced to create a subtle glitch effect.

                                  













A white ring and the signature of the artist were added on top of the image. Then, using the mask option and brush tool, the three objects were made to intertwine to produce a 3-dimensional effect. 





Lastly, several layers of the title were made and effects were added to it to produce a 3-D effect. The title was also wrapped within the ring in the same manner.

Red talks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ICYXheEBoM&feature=youtu.be   With only a few pictures, recordings and some information available, I narrated and edited a video in a few hours for a friend for her project. This was a new experience for me in which I had to manage everything under pressure within a certain time frame. This equipped me with time management and organizational skills (since I had to organize the available content in a chronological order to make it clear and understandable). 

Research on Genres

I want to create a music video following the comedy and romance genre. To create such a text, I looked into the romance and comedy genre conventions that I could follow. These are some of the important points I noted down.  ROMANCE: COMEDY: I came across a table that showed the types of comedy. To my surprise, visual comedy (through editing) was not included.

Dignity Day Video

Today we celebrated dignity day in our school and being the head of filmmaking society I made a video about it. The video started off with a fun fast-paced soundtrack to create suspense and interest. I added text with a simple question, in the start, to encourage engagement with the audience; which is ironic since this video can be considered a part of hot media (which demands little interaction from the viewer/user).  Two interviews were added to give the video a documentary feel.  A smooth audio transition from the diegetic and non-diegetic sounds of the interviewee and background score respectively to an 'Urdu poetry' was made. The poetry was accompanied by slow-motion shots of students and lower staff members to give a dramatic effect.   https://youtu.be/kzJ9UjASq3c
