Movie Trailer Project



                     Movie Trailer Project

       For our Movie Trailer film project we recreated the Napoleon Dynamite Trailer. Cole Bartley played the main character, Napoleon Dynamite; I played his friend who is running for president, Pedro; and the other minor rolls were filled by people in our group and one from another group. In our film I was a co-director and I created the the credit graphics at the end. Holly was co-director and did some of the camera work. Cade did a little of the camera and held the boom mic for a few scenes and played the dad in a scene. Jeremiah did camera work and held the mic when Cade wasn't there. Cole was the main actor in the video and helped plan the scenes out.
       We started by planing out our filming with a story board. We wrote down all the scenes and grouped the scenes together based on their location so we were more efficient with the filming process. We also planned filming dates and roles.
     For the first day of filming we got all of our school scenes filmed. Since it was the first time filming we had to get into the swim of things and make sure we were all focussed on getting everything done. On next filming date Cade couldn't make it and Cole was only able to film for an hour, so we went to Cole's house and got the scenes with the bike and ramp and Napoleon and Pedro. We filmed the next day but I was unable to attend due to work,  and they finished the few scenes we had left.
      For post production Holly did most of the editing. I wanted to edit at least some of the video but I was unable too. I did however make the end credit graphic where I gave credit to all our actors and the original production company and director.
     Overall I feel like this project went very well. Unlike my last group we did well in planning out the project and were able to get all of our scenes shot well in advance. I'm happy with my group and feel like we all worked together when everyone was there.

                                                               My Google Sketch Up House              In Ecomm we created houses in Google Sketch Up. We got plans too a house and recreated it Sketch Up.  It had too be over 500 Square Ft. and it took us over 3 weeks. Once we saved the plans we started building it. I started by measuring out the dimensions and making the base for my house. I then pulled the roof out of the block. I started making all the accessories to the the house like the windows and the porch and the doors. I added all the textures and the roofing and then my house was done.         On Career Cruising Animator and Graphic Design and Videographer were all part of my 10 career choices. These are all things that I would like to choose as a career. I ...

        W E L C O M E T O M Y B L O G ! In Ecomm we had a sidewalk chalk projects to get to know people in our groups. We came together and made something that represented all of us. We spend the first day planning what we were going to create and made  a rough draft. My Group planning what to make The second day we started our final creation. Even though some people in our group put more of what they wanted in the chalk picture some parts of it represented all of us. The colors in our project didn't mean anything we just wanted it to be colorful. Each of the symbols represent things about our selfs. If we did this different I would want our group to work together more and make the decisions together. Thank you for reading. Good bye. Our final creation

E-Comm Final

 E-Communication has been a fun 4 years, and it is sad to see it end. Takeaways from E-Comm Senior Year Technical Skills - One of the biggest areas of improvements I have had throughout this year of E-Comm is with my editing skills. I've taken on the duties of Editor for many of my projects this year, and I was able to hone my skills and get to a place where I am proud to show off my editing. Communication - Communication was a struggle amongst all students this year with how often we had to switch the schooling style, from all online, to hybrid, to all in person. This made it difficult for us and lead to us having to communicate in different ways, whether it be through E-Mail, text, etc; However I feel like this struggle greatly improved my ability to communicate with other people. Collaboration - Collaboration is another part of E-Comm that was made hard this year due to the pandemic. However me and my groups were able to work together through different ways and work together on ...
