For my final project, I am thinking about doing a video on how to make a spiral tie dye pattern that would have continuity and montage elements for how the video will play out. My idea is to do the process of tie dye with getting the fabric into the correct shape, how to add in the dye for the best results, and how to rinse out the tie dye to make sure the colors stay in and not get ruin. I would explain in some parts of the video why I enjoy doing tie dye. The sound will be a voice over to help keep the instructions consistent. I might use AI to create music for the background to see if I can come up with a fun background soundtrack.

My plan is to make a video essay discussing the way in which my family’s blended cultural heritage leads to a unique celebration of holidays. I’ll be leaving for a religious holiday this week and plan to get as much b-roll for it as I can, and I also hope to incorporate interviews with both of my parents regarding their feelings about culture and holidays, utilizing various elements of film composition that we have learned about thus far. Depending on what I’m able to record for b-roll, I may or may not also turn to AI to fill in the gaps should the need arise.

For my final project, I have two main ideas on what I want to do. My main and first idea depends on if we can use a copyrighted song. I plan to take the Pure Imagination song from the recent Wonka movie and make a sort of cinematic video for it. As the song progresses and becomes more “imagination” I want to try to edit the footage I take with AI and make it surreal. Or like something only in imagination.

My second idea is more so just a sort of cinematic type documentary/essay video. I am still unsure on the exact topic I want to cover but I do have ideas that center around the word “curious.”

I couldn’t successfully upload the files as a webpage due to an FTP server issue, so I recorded the user experience from my own computer to get a sense for how it’s designed to play out on someone’s screen.

I am planning for my project to make to make the start of a you tube channel that will give how to videos on audio editing and some techniques that I have acquired while doing work in the DTC program. I also considered to use it as a channel to inform about audio effects and some of the uses that have been used in the past.

I also want to focus on the DAWs that are sort of becoming the industry standard in the music and audio industry. doing this I would do Logic Pro, Studio One, Ableton, and potentially pro tools depending on the future of that program.

Hey everyone,

I plan on creating a video similar to the style of Daniel Liss’s pandemic pantheon: a-z. My goal is to create montage, looped, video essay-like short film revolving around 23 facts about my perspective on life, a 23 year old college student whose moving out at the end of this week.

I’m not making this an egotistical project that’s all about me, because that’d be lame. I want to include thoughts or ideas that I have which many others share and hopefully connect to them on some level. I’ve begun writing a script for how this should play out and will be including some old footage I have alongside newly recorded pieces. I’m thinking of this project as a sort of check in point for myself on where I’m at in life.

I haven’t decided if I’m going to stay in a numerical order or choose random numbers to convey and connect ideas. I do want to connect ideas in clever ways as the numbers either increase or decrease to help keep the audience engaged with the content.

(I had to scrap the Cherry Blossoms at the Portland Waterfront Park idea. By the time I was able to get back down there for more footage the trees were bare pretty much and they weren’t looking as good as the first time I was down there. So, I refocused the video essay on the experience of the PlayStation Virtual Reality 2 headset.)
