This week, I finally found a video to mimic to help me with my capstone project. I really like it because it inspired me to almost completely change my project into creating an advertisement-like video. The video is a promo video of a hair salon. Each clip is less than three seconds and they each show different actions of hair styling. They also show each of the hair stylists and their interactions with their clients. Each clip looks so good because it’s all in slow motion and the movement of the videos is all from camera movement. Also, in the audio, there is background music and just few sample sounds of enhanced sound affects for the actions. I plan to recreate that at Raven’s Cauldron, but of his crystals and beads shop and maybe his tarot readings and other metaphysical services. I definitely struggled more than anything to find this video because it’s not easy looking up ‘cool video’ and expecting the exact kind of video I want to show up. But overall, I really do like this video and feel much better about what my end project will be.
This week, I also wrote out an outline for how I plan to mimic the video I found to make my project. I wrote down all of the different shots and types and where they will be and what the consist of. It was not easy to plan out all of the different shot types because I still need to be at Raven’s Cauldron to know the specific areas I would filming. I also added how many shots I planned to take for each area inside of Raven’s Cauldron and how many seconds it would be. I definitely struggled to create my outline because I wasn’t sure how to format it but I guess the format did not matter, just the content. I would like to be able to film Brian doing a tarot card reading and maybe other services, I am just scared.
This photo is my featured image because finding a video and creating an outline is definitely helping me plan out how to create my project.
