Week13 Rough cut and presentation

In this week, we still edit the video and still looking for another effect to use in this video. Then, we work with the typography. We use some effect with it and try to make it look excited.

This is how it looks like.

We use scale to make it excited.

However, we also have presentation in this week. We have to show our rough cut video and tell them about our story in the presentation class.

This is our rough cut video!!

We got some feedback from the audience and we are going to change and fix some of shot and might be add some another effect in this video.

Week12 Edit and re-shoot video

In this week, we start editing video. We edit in the first part of story that about friendship. We cut many shot of them and combine it together. We want to create many shot of views. So, we use medium shot and long shot of two friends but we think long shot it is not going to work. So, we use only medium shot. We also use typography in this video. Then, we edit the action part of movie. We use muzzle flash effect for make it look like a gun and also use bullet hole effect.

This shot we are using muzzle flash effect

In this part, it is a bit difficult for us because we use handheld to film this shot. So, when you footage has move, the effect should follow the footage and also you have to make it look smooth. However, we have edited the video and we all agree that we should have more shots about their friendship. So, we film some more shots for friends’ scene. In the friendship part, we use the sepia colour because I want to make it look like their memory.

This is more shots of their activities.

In this shot, we are using long shot.

In this shot, we are using medium shot.

In this shot, we are using lower-angle shot.

In this shot, it is also medium shot.

This is the example of sepia colour that we use in video.

This is muzzle flash video tutorial!!

This is bullet hole video tutorial!!

Week11 Filming video

In this week, we are going to start filming the movie. The first location that we choose is the park behind Swinburne. Then, the first scene that we are going to shoot is two friends do activities together. For example, they meet each other and go to everywhere together. Afterwards, we shoot many scenes about their friendship in this place. Also, we shoot action scene in the ATC building and we think about what effects that we are going to use in this scene. So, we have shot fighting scene that we use tripods instead the gun and use handheld for shooting. we are going to edit it in next week.

This shot we film at the park behind Swinburne and its about two friends meet each other.

These shots we are filming action shots at the ATC building.

Week 10 Story and Scene

In this week, we have a group meeting and also brainstorm about our story. We have some idea about the action movie. We think we want to create something like two best friends fighting together. We talk about this idea in a group meeting and we all agree with this idea. Then, we continue brainstorm about what is the first scene that we should start and also where we are going to shoot it. In the first scene, we are going to shoot about two friends’ activities. We have looking for many locations around Swinburne and the building in Swinburne as well. Therefore, we decide to film it next week.

Week 9 Inspiration for Assignment3

In this week, I have look for many kind of movie such as comedy, drama, horror and action. Then, I found a good inspiration video on YouTube. It is an action movie and I got some idea for assignment three. Furthermore, our group has a group meeting and I told them about action movie that I have found. So, we decide to create an action movie trailer. We have to think about our story and what effect we are going to use in the movie. Therefore, we have to find some idea for our story and also think about the scene and location in the movie. We will discuss about it in next meeting.

This is my inspiration about action video!!!

Week8 assignment 3 preparation

Satinee, Pongsakorn and I have formed a group for assignment3. We have to create a 60-90 second video with effect.
We discussed about the video and we are going to create movie trailer. It is a new genre for our group because we never do it before. Then, we still looking for about kind of movie that we are going to create a trailer. We decide to look for personally inspiration. So, I have looking for inspiration for this video such as Action, Comedy and Drama. However, I’m still looking for another inspiration for this assignment.

After Effect Assignment 2: Video FX Scene

This is my second assignment for After Effect. I have created a short video FX about cracked floor and jumper effects. So, I did a research about both effects. I got some idea about it. My idea is about two guys going to class and they jump from somewhere to front of their building. In that scene, I used the cracked images. I found some images about the cracked floor on the Internet.

In the scene, I used the effect the same as jumper but I used it with the door in front of building. I can go inside the building and don’t need to open the door. Also, I have approximately three or four camera shots for this video. When I made this video, I got some problems about distort effect and the cracked floor as well. I try to make it smooth and look realistic. However, I can solve it and I’m enjoyed with my video. Furthermore, I did a research about tutorial of those effects on YouTube. I got many tips from the tutor because some effects in the video tutorial, I never use before. Moreover, I try to do my best for create this video. I hope the audience enjoyed my video.

This is my video!!

Week 7: Motion Tracking

In this week, I have learned about Motion Tracking. I made 2D and 3D tracking. I shoot two videos for 2D and 3D. Then, I edited them in After Effect. In my opinion, I think 3D tracking is easier than 2D because I can achieve it. However, I edited 2D tracking but I can’t change the point of tracking. I think it might depend on the video that I had shoot because I confused about how to shoot video for 2D tracking. Also, I think 3D tracking is better than 2D. I prefer 3D tracking and really enjoyed with it.

This is my 3D tracking video!!

This is my 2D tracking video!!

I have been looking at 2D and 3D tracking example. I found many example videos for that. This video is one of my most favorites. In this video, it has many effects and good shot. I think it is really awesome. It has a spaceship on the road in this video. I really interested with that shot. In addition, I like the idea of how the creator demonstrates it. Also, his camera technique is so good because it can combine with the effect. Moreover, I got some idea and creative from this video. It is really helpful for me.

This is the 2D & 3D example video!!

Week 6 Chroma keying and masking

In this week, I have learned about make cloning video. I shoot video of my self in this class. Then, I edited it in Adobe After Effect program. In my opinion, I think it really difficult to make it when I saw the example video. Actually, it is not hard to edit it but it is hard to make it smooth and look real. However, I really enjoyed with this class because I never do cloning video before and this is my first time to create my cloning video. Moreover, I think the most important thing is planning because when you should the video, you have to organize where the first character should stand and another character as well. Also, if you have good planning, it would easy for you to edit your video and make it better.

This is my video!!

During this week, I have been looking at cloning video. I found another example video and tips for create cloning video. This video is one of my most favorites. It has some tips to create cloning. In addition, I like the idea of how the creator demonstrates it. Also, his camera technique is really good and he can combine both of technique together. I think this video is really useful for me.
