After shooting, editing, and watching our video I noticed some things that we could have improved. First, I really enjoyed shooting the video. I had worked with iMovie before when I created my own video slideshow for my graduation party. However, that was just using pictures and dropping them in to make a video. I liked that we got the chance to edit actual video footage.
If I had the chance to shoot another video and do it all over again there are a few things I would change. The big thing my group noticed while watching our video in class was that we filmed a part where there was a sliding glass door and you could see the reflection of the other 3 girls in the door. It was something we really didn't notice until we watched it as a class. If we did this project again I would spend more time on the editing portion. Our video ended up being a little over the time limit so we were rushing just to edit it to make it look good. I would definitely spend more time cutting clips to make it look more professional as well as test out some of the themes. I would spend more time just playing around with the video until I got exactly what I wanted out of it.
Another thing I would do differently is have everything planned out. A script may have been helpful at times. As far as research and resources, it may have been beneficial to watch some tutorials of iMovie in order to get a better understanding of the whole program and all the special effects it has to offer. I also think it may have been helpful to watch videos that others made using iMovie to see what effects work well together and to get some good ideas on how to edit. Like I said before, if I had the chance to do this project over I would spend a lot more time on the editing portion to get used to the software and really make my video fun to watch.
I hope everyone else found some things they could work on by watching everyone's videos today!
