surfer duude

Reflection: In our values video what im trying to represent is honesty because being honest will give you peoples trust and as a friend thats what you want most. There are a few things that taylor and myself have done to our video. And that was when we showed the clip when we finished off a script we had a shot flaring out to the sky. That was the one we were both proud of. There are still some minor things we need to fix like the edits and we still need to add a few clips but all in all its pretty much complete. One thing we do want feed back is our music, because i know we used it repeatedly and i have a feeling thats too cheesy, needs to be more professional. And one course we went through as a group is being able to make the correct edits. and we concurred it with the help of you Dr. A you helped us out alot and its highly appreaciated. Hopefully you guys love our final video on Values!

Thinking about our final video

POSITIVE COMMENTS

1. We especially like the shot when the camera turned towards the sky because it was a good transition from leaving the beach.- John and Joselyn
2. Overall, we thought your film was very comedic- John and Joselyn
3. We especially like the transitions –Blanca
4. We especially like the shot of Jose surfing because it showed the beginning of various funny scenes- Anonymous
5. Your group has talent.- Always, Sabrena, Ashley P, Eddie E
6. We rate your video a 9.- Always, Sabrena, Ashley P, Eddie E
SUGGESTION
1. Our strongest suggestion is that shorten the intro. Jacob D and Morgan D
2. Use of dramatic music and happy music would help the rising action, the climax, and the resolution. -John and Joselyn
3. Change the edits a little so it would look more smooth- Blanca
4. You can add to the resolution by showing all three characters having fun. This would help give us the idea that the values in the video were stronger-Jacob D and Morgan D

The positive comments that were most meaningful to us were from John and Sabrena. John told us that “We especially like the shot when the camera turned towards the sky because it was a good transition from leaving the beach” and that was helpful because we did know if that shot would be a good transition shot. In addition, Sabrena told us that “Your group has talent” , and that helped us see that our acting was good because we felt that it was “sketchy” because of the attempt on surfer dude accents.
The two best suggestions we got were from John and Jacob. John suggested that we “Use of dramatic music and happy music would help the rising action, the climax, and the resolution” . We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to make the resolution more clear by adding different music specific to the tone that needs to be set. Jacob suggested that we “Change the edits a little so it would look more smooth”. We agree with this suggestion, and our plan to address it is to do cleaner edits for the final draft.
