Failure blog


On the first video assignment, shadow buddies, I recorded a straight 10 minute video on my camera. I thought it would be good to capture everything and I could edit out things that I didn't like. But because the video was so large I was unable to upload it. I had a lot of good shots of the shadows on my camera that Lindsey didn't catch. Luckily Lindsey had enough footage to use but it would have been a better video if I would have taken a lot of short videos instead of one long one. In the future I know to take small videos. They are easier to upload.
I think my biggest success was when I made the abduction video. I just happened to stumble upon the filter that changed the baby voices into alien voices. Before that I had no idea what I was going to do with my audio. After that everything fell into place. I learned from this success that not everything is planned and sometimes things just come to you and it usually ends up better when they do.
If I could have redone one project it would probably be the abduction video. If I could go back I would have recorded more things before. It would have been nice to have more audio to work with. But in the end I was happy with the way it turned out. It could have been better if I spent more time with it but maybe it would have been worse.
