My projects for my final reflection are my short film and movie trailer. They both took 1-2 weeks. A challenge we faced were availability. I learned how to schedule filming with a business. I was given feedback about audio levels and shots not being properly focused. I think my videos are all mediocre.
I mostly filmed during class time and edited at home so it wasn't very rushed. When I was done with other stuff I just worked on other stuff or talked with friends. If my boss assigned me am 8 hour project and I had an hour to enhance the product I probably would just read over it and make sure its all correct. I maximize my strengths by challenging myself in the moment. The areas I need to improve in mostly is management because i'm not great with it.
My role in the short film was actor/director. My team chose a crime genre film. I learned that you need to use a good mic that eliminates most background sound. My writing skills didn't improve much to where I could tell.
My favorite part of this semester was probably either the music video or movie trailer. I probably would have made my own music video other than trying to copy one. A takeaway for me would probably be that audio editing is very important. For next year a goal id set would probably be to improve on audio. I dont have any final thought except that I enjoyed this class!

Napoleon Dynamite (mock movie trailer)
Over the course of a few weeks me and my group worked on recreating the Napoleon Dynamite movie trailer. We had to film outside of school, work through schedules and figure out how to properly time shots and fit the lines in the right place. The whole process went quite smoothly but was still quite difficult overall. We ended up finishing filming two days before the project was due and I ended up editing it.
