What I learned from other videos...

What I learned from this video is that getting personal stories can really be relatable for students. I think this group did really well with getting input from people outside of their group. For example the interview at the beginning of the video about the girl who was bullied in middle school really brought out the personal and emotional effects that people feel when they feel bullied. I thought it was cool how someone from their group composed their own music for the group to use. The arrangement of scenes also brought the whole video together. The transitions between students and Mrs. Lomanto showed the relavance of opinions.

What I learned from other videos...

What I learned from this video was that music and different elements make a video a lot more interesting. It keeps the audiences focus. Throughout the video there is music and the edit is welll done. While interviews are going on the music in the background lowers itself in order to hear the people speaking in the video. I also learned that you need to manage your time properly in order to get an outstanding video. It is obvious that eddy and his group spent a bunch of time editing. Hence the outcome of a very great video.

Cyberbullying Project

On November 15th my groups video was presented to the class. We got a lot of good feedback from our classmates on what we could do differently. Our video could be improved greatly. To be honest my group and I were very rushed to finish and couldve done more to make the video interesting. We ran into complications which backed us up a little. We could have incorporated music and interviews from other people. The video itself was informational but bland. I think we couldve broken up the video to where there was not just me and someone else talking;more variety.The video was a bit long and hard to hear. I think my group and I need to pick out the most important clips and work with what we have because we dont have anymore time to film. I am proud of my group for putting in their effort and time into the video. Jessica and Alexis did an amazing job on the credits. To be honest I was not as involved as I shouldve been; I couldve been there for my group a lot more. We all worked well together and we hope for the best on our final video. We need to come together and do as much as we can.
