Week9 27/10/2015
In this week, we did another commenting again about our film script. After listening the comments that given by the professor, we discovered that our script is quite hard to film it. It is because the meaning and story we are going to express is too psychological. The event: forgetting, time reversing, regrets, happiness, are very hard to show them to the audiences easily. We can just say," I am happy. Oh I forgot that!" It works, but it is too boring and meaningless. So we must use more and more editing and shooting skills to make this more interesting.
Because of this problem, we decided to form a "Part B", to illustrate that the main character is forgetting things. The part b is to show the memories about that category happened before, and play them fast, with special sound effect, which is my duty to find it. And turning the film from colourful to black and white. Which means deleting. And I have thinks of different events to add in part b, to make it more meaningful.
In this weekend, we will start to shoot the scenes again.

Week7-8 13/10/2015-20/10/2015
This is a "reading week" of the lesson video editing. In this week, our group started to talk about the script of the final project,
About our project, we are going to talk about "Time Machine". It talks about a man who wanted to reverse to the time of happiness.
And in these two weeks, we separated our posts. And I am the actress of the film, act as the girl friend of the main character. Also, of the production team of the film, I am the sound editor and the one who help the actors and actress to make up. This is the main post of me. Although we separated our own post, we also helped each other. For example, we will corporate with each other to design and write the script. And I am the final person to tidy up the script in a better format with WriterDuet.
And for my post, I am the sound editor. I started to find different music to match different scenes and sound effect to match different events in the film. And also find a better way to record the sound. Sometime, the sound equipment is not very good in quality, so we have to record the dialogue by using the V.O. lab in some cases. Or I decided to put the recorder inside the clothes to record the sound.
And in the lesson of week8, we showed the professor our idea and script in WriterDuet. She reminded us that we should use more showing, acting, than saying. Otherwise it will be so bored and meaningless.

Week6 6/10/2015
This was the sixth lesson of having video editing. We talked about final project. There are lots of production roles. Production roles explained pre-production, breakdown script writing and mini workshop. In production roles, we have writer, director, director of photography, sound editor. These are first stage. In second stage, we have producer, assistant director, assistant editor, actor etc. And all of them are important.
In pre-production, it breaks down story idea, pitch, script, storyboard, costing etc. These are all production plan.
Another thing is, the professor reminded us that places, locations act like actor. Sometime we need is a good location. And different colour tone will have different effect in a movie. For example, in the movie "The Shining". Two girls's clothes were in blue and white, it's used to have a contrast between the blood red and them. Also, Danny's red clothe represent that he is in danger, and have a contest between him and two girls.
About script writing. it is used to build block of your film. If you want to write good script, first you should read more good script. And when we are doing script writing, we should show the emoting by showing it, but not telling.
I hope I can do a great job in my project.

Week5 29/9/2015
This was the fifth lesson of having video editing. In this lesson, we are going to submit our assignment 1.
In this blog, let me introduce and talk more about my assignment. In my assignment, I used the video clips of the spider. The spider is climbing on a person's body and also the clip of shooting from the spider's vision. And the spider failure. And I mix these video clip with the war.
Spider represent Japan. Which like the flag of Japan in that time, and it's like spider's legs, have lots of military power and ambition. And the spider's climbing on a man's back means it is going to attack other. And finally the target is USA. And I used a bird to represent USA, which is a nation of freedom. And the spider killed the bird. That means Japan attack USA in the Pearl Harbor Incident. And a spider have a large movement it represent Japan felt happy after winning the war. After that USA fight back by using atomic bomb. And I used a video clip of the eagle flying high in the sky, shows how powerful USA is. After failing the bomb, Japan surrendered. And I used the clip of the spider fell down from the table. This represent the failure of Japan.
That's all of my assignment 1. And I hope I can gain more experience of video editing in this assignment, and have improvement next time.

Week4 22/9/2015
This was the fourth lesson of having video editing. The professor taught us about the theory of editing. our assignment should apply the concept and idea in video cutting. For example, we watched a video clip that a peacock's video clip and a man's video clip keep showing. This shows that he wanted to gain authority and become a king. If we use different animal in the clip, it will show different effect and feeling.
Also, we learnt about something of the software Premiere and photo taking, such as YC graph. Y means brightness vs. dark. C means saturated vs. desecrated. In color temperature, the degree kelvin of light source which gives it a "color". In color balance, white balance setting the source light to read as pure white. White is not totally white, it is the mix of all color. In color correction of a wedding photo, it gives more detail in black, but lose detail in the white. In color grading, when we don't know what's going on in the shadow, will make us feel nervous. That's why film making usually use blue tone in the war, but not orange or red such warm color.
In this lesson, we learnt lots of usage of camera and terms. I will put more attention in them in my daily life.

This was the third lesson of having video editing. In this lesson, we mainly focus on how to use the video editing software, which is Premiere Pro CS6. It is the first time for me to use, so it is a bit hard for me to handle to so fast. but it will be improved.
In the Premiere Pro CS6, there are many important editing tools, such as camera logs, assembly edit, rough cut, view rushes, digitize log, lock picture, fine cut, sound edit, out put, final cut, SFX, etc. Also, in the software, it included, time code, capture, log, bins organization, frame size etc. Cutting and trimming areas represents all cutting tools, simple effects, dissolve and speed etc.
This software, Premiere Pro CS6 is a software that are professional in video editing. In fact, i just learnt how to use the Final Cut Pro before, so this is the good time for me to learn another video editing software.

This was the second lesson of having video editing. In this lesson, professor taught us something about Montage Theory, and some important parts about it. It is a new term and concept for me. I learnt that cutting, editing and motivating are all about Montage Theory. It has a big relationship with our editing job.
Metric, rhythmic, intellectual and tonal is the main part of Montage Theory. Metric is when we cut on set number of frames for each shot transition. Rhythmic represent that the speed of the cutting tools focus the movement through the frame. Intellectual is a parallel cut. Tonal is about is the emotional meaning of the film or video maker have, that to design which and where to cut or form the video.
After that, the professor taught us something about camera shooting. When we shot, we may decide how long, how big or small and how much should we shot. They are all about shot size. It is the framing of the subject.
Although I am not a professional photo taker, I have interest in photo taking and editing. Therefore, I will pay more attention in them.
