Editing lesson blog

   Today, I watched an editing project for my project. I have few knowledge on editing with the app filmora but there's more to it than a little app. Dont get me wrong, filmora is a great for everybody to start on. It has lots of features,sound effects, and graphic designs that will make a beginer look like a pro in minutes. However, this editing lesson really gives more information about editing. Pinnacle is the recommended site to use for editing my project. The teacher says the site has "a mind of it's own" as it is shown to "get angry" if you rush it. The site is kinda slow so I asked the teacher if I could use another site. She allowed it but only if I could bring it to class.

   Pinnacle has the same features as filmora but just looks more complicated than what it needs to be. This site could be simpler but you have to click and wait excessively for you to get what you want out of the site. Filmora on the other hand, is very simple and has the same if not better transitions and tools. Now, since my media teacher tought me more about editing I can now spread my wings and edit better at will. I never dumped my footage on a computer from a camera, so it was a pleasure  to know how to do it. First, stick the sd card from your camera in your sd card reader. Once the card is in the computer, pinnacle will pop up on your screen. Now you can you can take the sd card and put it in the USB. Now make a folder and import your work into that folder. Now you're ready to edit your takes that you use blood,sweat, and tears to shoot.
 
  Now that you imported, you should definitely check the dcim folder. If you cant find it(in which you most likely will), go to private. You should see something called AVCHD. You should now log into pinnacle and press stream. This will allow you to see all footage you have on the camera. Press import on pinnacle, click COM, then your list of footage will be created. In my opinion, you should import all the footage instead of the ones you like because you never know what you want in your video. When you click your raw footage, drag it to track 2 or AVtrack2. You can move the a line on the edit screen anywhere you want to cut you footage. You can add features in between  your footage. Make sure when you press your footage that there's an orange box around it.all titles go on track 1.

Your sound is located on the bottom of your footage. It looks like purple squiggly lines. If you dont want your sound you can right click, detach, and delete the sound from the footage.when you're done with everything, press export to share it to someone. Press MP4 to signify that this is a video. Press best quality, then start your export.

Planning blog for nike commercial

  Today I sadly have to create my planning blog for an one hundred point grade. To be honest, I actually making blogs so this should be easy.

      Props

 Props are a very important factor in making my Nike commercial. I will be bringing a number of items to show that all athletes of any sport are welcome to nike. It also gives me more scents to do if I bring certain props. I'll be bringing a basketball and football. The weight room also has weight I'm using as props but I'm counting the whole thing as a scene.

 Costumes

 The costumes or outfits I'll be wearing are all nike since I'm doing a nike commercial.it wouldn't make sense if wore a damn Adidas jacket wouldn't it. I'll go into to detail. Actors will wear a nike just do it shirt, nike just do it pants, and some nike shoes that ill eventually find in my closet. I might wear a nike gators outfit to piss off one of my teacher since I see alot of Seminole souvenirs around the class.

   Schedule 

 Today I'm doing the blog you're about to read right now. On October 14th, I'm doing the storyboard blog. On October 21st, I'm doing the filming blog. Finally, on october 23rd, I'm doing the editing blog.

  Location 

 My location will be on and in all sports facilities on campus. My first will be on the track where I'll show a scene of someone running. To follow through that scene, I'll show a scene on the football field where I'll show someone passing(throwing)the ball a receiver. The next scene will take place on the basketball court of someone alone taking shots to emphasize the work ethic athletes who wear nike have.the last scene will be the weight room wear someone will be lifting weights. The closing scene will be in the gym where all the people from each scene come together in nike gear.

  

  Back-up plan

 If it rains the video will ne even better. I'll only use indoor facilities to shoot my video which would be quicker. Instead of going on the field the two scenes, I was going to use for outdoors, I'll use it to show it's raining outside but the players working indoors to show that they can work anywhere and nothing will stop them from getting better. Instead of the track, I'll use the stairs to run on and I'll going in the weight with the football and they can still do their scene. So basically, this project should be a success any way you look at it.

Intorductory

 My name is Emanas. I'm a freshman at Ft.lauderdale highschool. Even though their school is 6th in academics, I was really attracted to their football program. I think I really have a chance getting a scholarship here.

  I was born september 25 in miami. Grew up there but moved to broward a few years ago because my parents had my little brother.after my little brother, my sister and other brother were born. My father was a truck driver at the time so he wasn't really home. My mom stayed home caring for us.

  Ever since I was a baby i love football. I was good at it too. My peers and their parents would praise me and say i would make it big one day. So I stuck with and I got better. My  parents motivate me to get my grades though so I worry more about my grades than sports. I still try to balance my life emotionally, physically, and mentally.
