Chase Scene



This project was a chase scene that was a sequence of around 30 shots. The shots used were medium, wide, close up, extreme close up, point of view, and over the shoulder. What it took to make this video was before we filmed we made a storyboard, next we took 2 hours to film the shots we had on our storyboard, finally I edited the video in Final Cut Pro. I learned how to color correct in final cut pro which helped make my shots look better. No new camera shots or angles were used in the video so I didn't learn anything in the camera category. If I could go back now and change something I would make some more of the shots have a better white balance in the hallways because they were kind of yellowish. All of the other shots and angles I would keep the same because they all looked really well in the finish. In the next project I will white balance more often to make the shots look better. In conclusion my video was very good in my opinion, just a few visual things due to the white balance made it look weird and unnatural.

    I liked this video I thought it was funny and had good camera shots. You did a good job with the color correction all your shots had good color. You could improve on the various angles maybe. Overall you did a good job and I liked the film. -Victoria Scarduzio

    This is such a creative and unique video! Great shots and angles and very nice job on correcting lighting. You could have chosen a bit better intro music because it doesn't fit the scene very well. Other than that, very good! Love it!

    I really liked your music on this video. It had a great touch to the video, you really filmed well with all of the hallway running scenes and making it stay not shaky. You could improve on some of the background noise at some points, but overall really good. I really liked this video in the end. - Bryce Lundgren

    Nice Video! I really liked the different kinds of music that you had in the film, and I also liked your choice of shots, especially the close up of the foot running up the stairs! I also liked how creative your film was, and I thought the ending was funny too. I think you could improve on your consistency of shots, like at around 24 seconds you had a close up shot that maybe didn't fit that well. But other than that it was a really good film!

Maya Tools

  We made this Poly Thing using the Booleans difference tool, by putting cylinders through a sphere and differencing them out. This project though was mainly focused on using lighting and trying out the different lights. There is 6 different lights ambient lights, directional lights, point lights, spot lights, area lights and volume lights. In this project I just used the directional and area light in this project and turned the shadows on only for the directional light.  This is a hammer that was created in Maya using the cut face, extrude, and bevel tools. The cut face tool was used to make the back of the hammer and pull out the separate sides. Next we used the extrude tool to pull out and push in the top parts of the hammer head and the front and back of the hammer head. After that I just added colors and a floor. Also I made a nail from a cylinder and then pulled down the bottom center vertex to make the point and extruded the top. The revolving ice cream ...

No African American Oscar Nominations

Image
This article   "Academy Nominates All White Actors for Second Year in Row"  highlights the fact that once again no African American actors, producers, directors, and more for the second year in a row. Even with the movies that came out this year that were quite loved this still did not provide enough to get them nominated. The author argues that this problem of no diversity within the Oscars finds a short solution but that always goes away. In that we should create an everlasting solution to stop the discrimination within the Oscars. The point the author points out within this is supported by the movie "Creed" written and directed by "the black Ryan Coogler" and starring an African American actor happened to only get an oscar nominee for a white person who helped in the movie creation. Another movie "Straight Out Of Compton" happened to only get two caucasians nominees despite all the African Americans in the movie and who created it. The...

Hammer In Maya

Image
      The scope of this project was to create a 3D hammer on Maya. What it took to create this project was starting with a box and then extruding facing and forming edges to shape the hammer. Next, I took textures and put it onto the shapes and put it in lights to make it look good in the pictures. I learned through this process how to extrude faces and make them separate, also after that I learned how to use points to make the back of the hammer bend downwards. If I took the time to do this again I would probably make the wood base a little bit bigger so I could extrude it in more to make it look easier to hold. The rest I would do the same because it all looked very nice and turned out great. The thing I will use most from this is using the extrude face tool a lot more in my next project on Maya. Overall the project turned out great and I thought it looked really nice.
