    Welcome back, my people! To do my commercial, I am going to need some editing. So, I have been thinking about which software I want to use, and although there are some choices like iMovie and Final Cut Pro, I decided to go with Capcut. When asking fellow peers about which software I should use, Capcut was the most recommended. It's much easier to manage than other ones and contains more features. That will be useful because I'll be able to include all the required parts. For my commerical I will need to have several scenes, so Capcut will help put everything together. I don't have any experience with editing, so that's a bummer. But through the week, I intend to play around with Capcuts features so I can get used to them. I also will ask some of my friends who have previously used that software and hope they can teach me a thing or two. I am unsure if Capcut can do the same things as other software, so I may have to change where I want to edit soon. I will need to do further research on editing software to find the best one, but I still intend to use Capcut. As of now, I don't know if I have to speak in my presentation, which is disappointing on my part. However, if I do, I need to make no errors in speaking. I have a loud and booming voice so I won't have an issue with that. I do tend to trip over my words and stutter a bit. It's a little unpleasing if trying to make something that involves me talking. It won't be an easy fix, but I believe I can do it. My friend recommended drinking water before recording. They also mentioned that it's okay if I make any mistakes because I can edit anything or redo it. Reviewing the footage will be simple. I can search for videos in my photo app and insert them in Capcut. Then I can rearrange everything so it flows smoothly. Folks, that seems to be all for today. As usual, don't have a good day; have a great day.

 Hello, my people, welcome back to another blog. I've decided to make another minor change about what I'm going to use for my commercial. But before that, I would like to mention I made up my mind about using Capcut. I will be using it to edit anything I make, and I now have some experience from being taught by my friends. The minor change I decided to make is the song choice. In my research and planning blog, I said I would use La Campanella as my song choice. I mainly chose that because it is one of the most technically challenging piano songs ever written, hence why it's my favorite. But I'm changing the song choice to Fantasie Impromptu. A little bit about Fantasie Impromptu, composed by Frédéric Chopin, is a masterpiece of classical music for numerous reasons. Its expressive melody immediately captures the listener's attention, drawing them into a world of profound musical beauty. Chopin's technical prowess shines throughout the piece, showcasing his virtuo...

Production Blog: Cap Cut Editing Features

Image
       Tonight, I'm writing about my first editing blog for our final film project. As someone who has been using Cap Cut since the start of my school year for my classes, I can confidently say it's the best editing software to use. Especially when filming a horror story such as my group is. I had my doubts when I first opened, but I was pleasantly surprised to see how easy it was to navigate and the tips it tells you to help you navigate. I believe editing for horror is a life saver because it changes ordinary footage into spine-chilling scenes with a few clicks. It's easy to effortlessly create an ominous atmosphere using the app's lighting adjustment and eerie sound effects. There are plenty of transitions available along with haunting music that can keep any audience captivated throughout the video, ensuring maximum impact. My groupmate also mentioned that I could use Cap Cut's color grading options to enhance the eerie ambiance of the sc...

Production Blog: Roles

       There are four roles within the group since there are four of us. I am going to be the main character. He is someone who is cautious and afraid of anything that resembles horror. My role is to act afraid the whole time meanwhile providing a tone of anger at my friends for bringing me to the woods. My scenes involve looking for for sticks, sleeping in a tent, and running from a killer. The next person is Jayden. He is malicious person just like the other two friends, but his character has more of a presence than the other two. His role is to pretend to act sympathetic while secretly plotting against the main character. His scenes involve helping the main character pick up sticks and being hung.  Then there's Myles. He is a snobbish character who basically wants to torment the main character. He does this by coming up with plans to scare the main character along with Jayden and Mario (will be discussed next). Although he creates an impact to the film, his c...
