Printing Processes

Last week in e-Comm we learned about printing processes. We watched videos to learn about the basics and then were asked to write a blog post to check out understanding. Then we started on trying out our own printing process called transfer printing.

We started by picking one or two of our favorite projects we have done this year in e-Comm. Then we filled our image and printed them out. The next day we watercolored two different papers to transfer our projects to. After everyone was done with watercolor and all our papers are dry we learned the next step in the printing process.

First we added mod podge to the back of our paper that we wanted to transfer to the watercolor. Then we used the squeegee to push out the air bubbles and extra mod podge. After that had dried we used water to rub off the paper and were left with our prints.

Overall I think this project was very fun ad not extremely hard but I still learned a lot. This has probably been my favorite project in graphic design so far this year.

Music Video

• Embed your work at the top of your blog post under your Title. These past few weeks in video we worked on recreating the Bet on It video from High School Musical 2. As a group we thought this video would be really fun to create and challenging in many ways. We also had a good idea for locations already so we thought it would be do able. We started with pre-production by dividing up the work to be efficient and effective because we wanted to have as much times as we could to film. We also decided Alex was going to act, Josh and Drew we going to mainly do the camera, and Maleah and I were going to help with choreography and making sure the video and our filming was the same and there wasn't anything weird going on. After we had footage we all edited together since we couldn't have everyone at the same time, so we had one person run editing and everyone else helping and we rotated the main editor. As a group I think we worked together really well and dealt with the issues w...

semester reflection

This semester in video we did four major projects. My two favorite projects were the procedure video and ONW now story. Since the procedure video was our first video of the semester it took a little longer, we had about two weeks to do this video. As a group we faced many challenges with the new cameras and refreshing our editing abilities but after getting started our group did well. We were given a lot of feedback on our storyboarding and timing so we did the storyboard again with more details to have a better plan. Throughout this project I learned a lot about the new cameras and set expectations for video this year. With the cheer project we only had a week. With this project we did not face a lot of challenges our group picked a continent topic and used our time well. The only challenge was writing the voice over but we all worked together and finally got it done. In this project I learned a lot about team work and time management. Overall I think my videos turned out good some w...

Movie Trailer

The past few weeks in video we were challenged to recreate a movie trailer. My group was assigned the movie Napoleon Dynamite. We started by doing pre production. First we storyboarded, made lists of locations, characters, and probs and then screen recorded the video to break up each scene. Pre-production went well and we got it all done in plenty of time even though at times some of our group was very distracted. Next we got started on the filming process, which started off rough because we had to wait on our props. Once we started filming went smoothly. A lot of out clips were at school so that made it easy to film using class but it was very hard because of our schedules to film outside of school. The last few days before the video was due we finished our filming. When we were outside of school the group got very distracted but we finally got all our clips filmed. The editing process was very rushed and I think could have been better. I edited the clips we had a t school and I t...
