HC Vlog

This is a homecoming vlog I made over the course of homecoming week, including the powder puff game and the pep assemblies. I decided to do it because it seemed like a fun and interesting package that the student body would enjoy and because we had a show everyday of the week for homecoming week. Libbie and I filmed the footage used over the course of the whole week and we edited it in one day. I think the outcome of this project was really good and our footage went together nicely and it was a really fun project. I learned how to use the go pro and put it to use in this video.

Culinary



This project is a package over the culinary class here at ONW. I decided to do it because we were planning on doing consecutive stories over ONW A-Z and baking/ culinary was going to be the B and C for the segment. This project took us ! day to film B-roll, 1 day to interview, and 1 day to edit. I think the outcome of the package turned out pretty well. Our B- roll showed the process on cooking in order and we had a lot of good artsy looking shots. I learned that for an interview it's best to have the person you are interviewing sitting down.

Locker Shortage



The scope of this project was to create a package about how the 2015-16 school year had a shortage of lockers to be given out to students in the beginning of the year. For this video I executed the 6 shot system as well as the rule of thirds. Our package has a beginning middle and end. If I could do this differently I would have tried to get more b roll. Over all I think this was a well put together package and it told a story as well as informed the audience.

Airball Short Film FINAL

Project Scope and Process
The scope of this project was to create a short film incorporating a water bottle, a hat, a lights out reference, and an intentional source of light. The process for creating this video was we first wrote a script on celtix. Then we created story boards including the shots we plan to use, the angles, and a description of what will be said. We used  a story that we had already put together for a previous project so pre production wasn't so time consuming. For the actual production of the project we worked for about a week filming the story. We used a wide range of shots but mainly just one location in the main gym. During post production we edited the film and this took a total of about two days. I added music to many scenes to avoid awkward sciences and also had to cut many of my shots down to make the video. Audio was probably the hardest thing for me to edit.
Variety of shots we had to choose from.
What I Learned/ How I will Improve and Keep the Same
Music I added to my video from YouTube.
Throughout this process I learned how to add music into my movie from youtube and I also learned that a tripod is not useful for all shots. Professionally I learned it is important to make a time management and production schedule so you stay on task. I also learned to be more open with listening to other peoples ideas because they can often times be helpful. If I were to do this differently I would pick a more accessible location to be our main setting. I would also try to get more shots including audio and conversation to make the final video easier to understand and follow. Things I would keep the same would be the teamwork methods we used to finish the project in time as well as the number of shots we decided to take. We had a wide variety of angles and shots to choose from in the end which made final editing easier.

Experiences I Picked Up and Conclusion
From this project I learned to really be strict about your project timeline and stick to it. I also learned to choose a film that you know will be easy to make in the time given. I will be able to use this skills later in my film making career. In conclusion I did enjoy doing this project. Originally I had a different idea of how it would turn out but I'm not completely disappointed in it. I was late with my editing because I missed a day and that hurt me in the end but overall I think it was a decent video given the circumstances of the gym always being unavailable and my shortened time for editing.

Carton FINAL Stella Dolls

This project was to create a box template of our carton. We had to crete a product that has multiple uses. We created a barbie like product with dolls who will be set in a box that doubles as a runway. This product was time consuming but over all it was pretty fun. I had trouble finding the right carton measurments but we found a website with the right design. This project was interesting and I enjoyed it. We worked well together and we al pitched in. We each had a job to work on until the full product came together. We each respected each other and our work and it turned out great.




This is the front of our carton. We stuck to our color theme and we put our logo at the top. We left a white box in the center to resemble the clear plastic that will go there so you can display the barbie inside. We used stars on the sides of the box to add add a design to the front.

This is the back of our box. We put a picture of the "Stella Dolls" on it as well as put the name in our font on the top. We also added the stars in the background. We see the dolls as the focal point of the back of the box, and put our dolls name up at the center top of the box.

This is the left side of our box. here we have a description of the dolls all down the side as well as a barcode at the bottom, used for scanning the product. In the top left corner we stuck our label on it just to continue to have our label seen by the customer to eventually brand our product better.

This is the right side of our box. We put our logo on it once again and we put pictures of high heels and purses on it to add a fun look. The fashion pieces also back up the idea of the fashion themed dolls.

This is the bottom of our box where we have a QR code t the bottom of the box for scanning by customers.

This is our color palate and our logo design page. We stuck to the same color and varied shades of it. We used a pink color ranging from a hot pink all the way down to a soft light pink. We incorporated all the colors in our package. These color shades were a really good contrast with each other for the box.

Box Carton and Product Design

This is the label side of my box. I created in adobe illustrator. On the label I put two of my logos and a slogan in the middle one. This project was difficult but i think the final product will be interesting to see.
This is the actual carton layout for my product which is hair nails and skin pills that help you grow healthier hair nails and skin. On the carton i include the supplement facts, a barcode, two of my logos, and a silhouette of healthy hair.
This is the 3D mock up of the carton showing two different angles and a 3D pill bottle including my main logo on the front of the bottle.
