Day 14 of Studio Project - PRESENTATION DAY

4 September 2014

Presentation Day:
Came to school at about 6am to compile the opening and do some refining to the video. So I combined the opening scene with the current video that we had. We've also done for our breakdowns, presentation slides, BTS video and official video. So we're all ready for presentation. However, when the video is being played, the audio seems too soft so when I reached home, I retune the audio to make it louder.

Came back school to do peer evaluation.We've combined all of the things that we need to submit like our individual folders, storyboard, script, synopsis, behind the scene footages, final presentation sildes, official final video, production schedule and our combined vfx breakdown video. So in overall, I enjoyed working with my group members for this studio project. I gained a lot of experiences and also get to know more about IXD.

Day 12 & 13 of Studio Project

Yesterday, we went for a photoshoot for our opening scenes. This is the plan of it.

So currently, I've added in the overall music audio into the film and also for those sound FX. I've also updated those shots that my group members had completed like for those trackings, improvising the effect shots for ice and fire. As for the first scene, we've decided to change into this NYP angle instead.

 

For the fire and ice scene, Alvin, Zul, Kang Lin and Kar Meng had improvised on it.

As for the last scene, Kang Lin had added in the effects whereby the laptop screen will change from black to the IXD website. 

 

Today we will finish up the title and credits. Later on, we will be getting feedbacks from Mr Ron and see what we can improvise it before finalizing it.

Day 11 of Studio Project

For today, I continued to compile any new footage that Alvin had done and put it into our video. Firstly, we have the ice effect shot that had the marker removed footage to be sub in.

So this is the screenshot of the footage. Then, I also had feedback from Mr Ron that for this shot the laptop screen area is too bright so I used after effects to draw a mask on it and dim it down so this is how it looks like from a screenshot.

 

I've also done the ambient audio for the whole footage but not yet for the overall music feel. As for this part, Alvin replaced the background TV with our senior's work. But Mr Ron suggest that we should remove the glowing effect which is appearing behind her.

 

This is roughly how my workarea looks like.

 

So currently that's about it. I will need to sub in the footage for a few scenes after Alvin had made the changes. 

These include:

1. Sequence 1 shot 1: Improvise the traffic light blinking colour.

2. Sequence 4 shot 2: CBB(Could be better) will be to track the "Digital Visual Effects" picture to not make it slide down when the camera is panning.

3. Sequence 4 shot 5: The fire effect to be improvised.

4. Sequence 4 shot 6: The glowing effect to be removed.

5. Sequence 4 shot 10: The ice effect to be put inside soon.

6. Sequence 5 shot 1-3: Track and stabilize the shots and roto to put in the IXD website link.

We'll be also working on the opening and logo design.
