News Reporter Shot Live

Murderer Vester Flanagon
On August 26, 2015 at 6:45 AM news reporter Alison Parker and her camera man Adam Ward were both shot on live television by . This was a horrific incident. Was the shooting the only horrific part though?

People reacted to go and watch the video everyone wanted to see the video. Which is wrong wanting to watch a video of someone being shot and killed. Did these people believe that the shooting was real or just a fake? From all of the things social media does to boost channel reviews people who wanted to watch probably felt it was just a fake video.

Social media today has become so hard to believe what is true and what is fake. This hinders the affect social media has when what it is presenting is actually true. The reactions from people should not be to want to watch a murder, thinking of the people wanting to watch that is disturbing.

Victims in murder
Social medias affect when one creates a lie on it makes a bigger impact than they would think. Truthful statements should only be presented so that one can always trust what is on their feed or pops up in news notifications. The world is a place full of deceit and lies though, so one must always be careful in what they trust from the news and social media.

In memory of:
Alison Parker and Adam Ward

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 whi

Blood Drive This is a news report over the ONW blood drive on Nov. 14 2014 that I edited and filmed with my video team of Kit Walters and Victoria Scarduzio . I had to make sure to capture important story telling shots about the ONW blood drive, we chose to follow sophomore Olivia Contractor.  There was no tripod use so all of the shots were shot in a particular stance to make them as steady as possible. Once we were done filming we brought it back to edit, using a very import editing technique called JNL edits. A JNL edit is where you see the subject speaking before they are heard in the video.  That new technique was the most important thing that I learned from this news report process. After seeing the shots and how it turned out, most likely if I did it again I would ask Olivia more questions and do my best to make steadier shots. The rest I would do the exact same because the video turned out quite well. In conclusion I learned a lot about the importance of sound byt

Professional Project Review: 21 Jump Street

21 Jump Street I absolutely love this movie! It is and will always be one of my favorite comedy movies. This movie is overall a hilarious piece of art. The story is very funny and has many great points throughout it. The irony in the story is also a valuable part in it in story. In which the main characters Schmidt and Jenko were once enemies then became friends then enemies and once again back to friends. It also presents a solid mystery in trying to find the drug lord, in which I truly didn't see being conveyed through the story for who it actually was. I never saw the old show  (left) that it was based off of. Inferring the old show was as funny and interesting as this it must have been a hit!  This movie already has a sequel  22 Jump Street  which I thought was as equally amazing!   I hope that a third movie could be created because both of these movies were brilliantly comedic and had a fantastic story to build with it. 21 Jump Street is an phenomenal m
