Me-Vid Evaluation

Introduction

I had to create a 3 minute me-vid that had to include photo and what are my hobbies and interest and what I do in my spear time. I also had to include a green screen shot of me filming. below you can see the script this what I made that's why I create my Me-Vid video.

Pre-production=planning section and scripts

Overall I could improve the planning & organizing of my script, by
 ensuring the actors can meet the schedule, therefore reducing the need to keep changing the script. During the planning stage I used a software called bubbl.us this website allowed me to create a spider diagram to list my key moments this was successful because I then used this to make up my script.

Production skills=getting videos, music footage

This was a major issue for me because I used two different cameras that were not compatible with each other. One of the problems that I had was that I couldn't view the HD scenes on the non HD camera. I will improve by checking the equipment next time to make sure that it’s the right one.
Another problem that occurred was getting the videos and transferring them onto my scratch folder because I haven’t used a mac in quite a long time and it’s not an easy thing to do. I now feel that I have some experience from using the Mac but I’m still in the process of learning how to use to it’s fully extend.

post-production

For my me-vid I had to edit all of my shots on a software called Final Cut Express.I also used a program called Live Type to design my graphics for my finished me-vid video. I found it a challenge because, the software I first used was called I movie and that was straight forward but when I used final cut express it was confusing but in the end I learned how to use it and i will continue to build on my editing skills and use the software the it's full extend.

New skills that I've learned

I learnt how to create a script for my work and this helped me organize how the shot will come together

I learnt how to use final cut express which is a new software to me as i'm used to using windows movie maker or I movie.

I have now learnt how to use live type i'm still trying to use it it's full extend but in the mean time this software has helped me because I can design my graphics on it then it will appear on the screen.

I have learned how to use a green screen and how to edit it on final cut express for example   Below you, you can see the green screen and how it came out and as you can tell that's there's no green.

below you can see my Me-Vid and see me in action
