This is the overall storyboard...
Here's a closer look from beginning to end...
The hardest part of storyboarding was forcing myself to use a pen. On Storyboarding basics on Vimeo, Carleton Torpin advises "..do them in pen, not pencil. With pencil your tempted to go back, erasing and fine tuning the story whereas pen it's almost setting it in stone. It makes you have to move on to the next one...so doing it in pen keeps it moving." If you look at the first set of pictures, I feel my pictures had too much detail. As I continued onto the others, I was writing less and leaving more to the imagination.
The second part of this week's project was to create 60 second video of multimodality. The title of my video is "I'll be back..." I don't want to give a description of it, because I believe it will take away from your interpreation of it. If anything, I will share the story post comments.
I created my video using Windows Movie Maker. The whole video is exactly 60 seconds, but for some reason after the upload its a minute and 2 seconds. Also, when I entered the credits everything fit, but as you will see the words "producer" and "The Terminator" is cut off. Does anyone know how to fix that? Any help is greatly appreciated. Here it is, hope you enjoy it!
"I'll Be Back"
Hi Anita,
ReplyDeleteYou're not the first person to have issues with the length of the video going over the 60 second mark when completing this assignment. Every video I've seen in the class thus far ended up being 1 second over, which is fine -- I know all of you have done your best to keep it within the time constraints. I myself had issues with the extra second that's added on for some reason when creating a video in iMovie or Windows Movie Maker. As far as the credits go, it's strange that it cut off the word Terminator since you were able to post production credits and whatnot far beyond "The Ter" -- I think it's one of those things I would need to tinker with in order to figure out...Could just be a glitch, a font issue, etc. Perhaps if you had made the font a bit smaller (albeit more difficult to read), that may have made it fit. Either way, you did a nice job of telling us a "story" with your work!
Best,
Erica
