'Coming along'

 Hey guys!! I'm gonna update you on how my commercial is going so far. Alright so I have gathered most of my pictures and videos but I can't seem to insert the right transitions. Everything is all wonky. It's like a few pictures fade and then some split and go to the next picture. I'm going to look up certain transitions to help me. The further I go with this editing the more I'm learning. At first I was having trouble with inserting my own sound. I tried seeing if the sound was on the app itself or if it was connected to my TikTok account. When I connected my TikTok account to Capcut  I was only allowed to select certain songs that were in my "favorites" folder of TikTok but it wasn't all of the songs I have favorited. I decided to screen record the song 'Encore' from YouTube and insert the audio of the video into my editing. This is how I inserted my audio instead. I have been looking at TikToks and YouTube to help me with my transitions because I can't connect them effortlessly. The more I go forward the more I learn about the vocabulary that I was introduced to. Things like 'Pan' and 'Zoom'. These words are very simple but putting them into action was even better. They helped me make my editing more life like. I don't want one of those boring PowerPoint type of edits. I want something that screams energy and life. I have also figured out how to add text to the edit so I'm just playing around with that for now. I've also learned how to 'Overlay' things to get a satisfying transition.

That's all for today guys! - Jana'e signing out

Our comedy horror film challenges conventions by exploring sensitive topics such as depression and attempted poisoning in a humorous manner. Rather than portraying the girl as a helpless victim, she responds to the situation with resilience and wit, subverting the traditional narrative of victimhood. This representation challenges the stereotype of individuals with depression as fragile and powerless, instead portraying them as capable and assertive. Furthermore, the film addresses the issue of toxic relationships and the importance of recognizing and standing up against manipulative behavior. By depicting the girl's response to her date's attempt to poison her with humor and defiance, the film highlights the need for healthy boundaries and self-advocacy in relationships. Our film engages audiences by blending elements of comedy and horror to create an entertaining and thought-provoking viewing experience. The unexpected twist of the girl's reaction to the poisoning attempt...

Hey guys!! So I’m almost done with my commercial. I have come a long way with production. I learned how to add letters to my edit. Just select the video you want the letters to appear in. Then you select the text option at the bottom of the screen. After that just type what you want to appear. You can also change the font of the text. You can also change when the text appears. For example I lined up my text to the lyrics at the beginning of the song that says “thank you” “thank you” thank you”. I also learned about the “Velocity” effect. It gives a more vibrant view for my edit. Makes it more alive and eye catching. I really want something that attracts the watcher. I also plan on adding more videos to the football game I went to the other day. I feel like I have come a long way though. Especially with editing because I used to think it was so easy. Meanwhile it was not that easy. I’m glad I got the chance to learn about it though. I can use these new earned skills for future projects....
