VIDEO ASSIGNMENT

Accessible Video Assignment: For this project I recorded the things I do everyday to live a  healthy lifestyle. I also included pictures over the last year to go along with the audio. I used Adobe Premiere to create the video. I recorded the audio on my iphone and then edited it in Audition. I included transitions between the pictures. Accessible media means that everyone can experience the message the video is trying to show. This is important so now one is left out. Video with audio and picture: Audio only: Video no sound:

What I included: - Running noise - Water pouring - Snoring How/Why: I used all of these noises to help the audience get a better feel for what I was talking about. This first sound is he running noise. I used my feet on a hardwood floor. https://soundcloud.com/user-939585680/run-1 The second noise is water from the tap. https://soundcloud.com/user-939585680/new-recording-5 Lastly, the third is snoring, and I tried my best to mimic a snoring noise. https://soundcloud.com/user-939585680/snoring

a) This commercial communicates well with hearing-impaired audience members because, it teaches the importance of communicated with the deaf. The deaf community is large and it is important to learn sign language to communicate with those who are hearing impaired. This commercial shows that Marriott goes the extra mile for all of its customers, especially those with disabilities. Using sign language throughout the commercial shows us this.   b) The commercial does a really great job communicating and being able to communicate with the deaf community. The deaf community has an advantage in this commercial because the women are signing words and conversations that aren't subtitled for hearing people.   c) The commercial does nothing for visually impaired people. The majority of the commercial is just instrumental music until they say “Treating other like we’d like to be treated, has always been our guiding principle.” A visual impaired person would be able to unders...

Adobe Audition Effects I am still getting used to the Adobe software but after playing around with it and learning from class demonstrations and videos there are a few things that I want to use for the upcoming assignment. We will be using still images and audio to create a mini film. Since we will be using still images it's important to include transitions between the images so the film doesn't look too choppy. Three effects I would use : 1. Echo: I think this would be dramatic and make a statement. I would likely only use this once and for something important in the video. This effect to me seems like something that could be over used and could get old quickly and I am hoping to avoid that. 2. Pages drop: Will be the next effect I would use. I think this would be a great way to transition between pictures. 3. Fade out effect: I also think it would be beneficial to use the fade out effect when I am ending my intro and before I start my story. This will help transitio...

The Lion King Rises For my move trailer mashup I used the video from The Lion King and the audio from The Dark Night Rises. I had to match up the audio so it matched the video when people were talking. Surprisingly some places matched up easily whereas other I needed to work harder to get the voices to line up. I used Adobe Premiere to edit the video/audio.

Friend's Story about her life: What I did: First, I used my iphone to record the convo with my friend. Next, I airdropped it to my laptop and uploaded it to Adobe Audition where I edited it and pieced together chunks to form a story. I then saved and exported it and uploaded it to sound cloud. The original recording was about 11 minutes long and I ended up trimming it down to about 1:20. Background on the story: This was a story that actually sounded nothing like the original... My friend's does not get $3,000 a month and she doesn't refer to her dad as "dad" in real life. I took bits and pieces of the original to mash it up and create a story that was not like the original. Thoughts before starting: Before I uploaded my recording I was trying to picture what it would look more like, sample A or B from the "Digitizing Audio" reading and what the rates and sound waves would look like. The result I got was not what i was expecting.  I could...
