My project is a less than a minute film about what a typical online school day is like. I decided to show my making coffee because it is essential for me to get up and get ready for the day. Then I show me doing math homework and then an English assignment from my bed. I tend to do work on my bed a lot when I’m feeling lazy.
Logline
High school student ordinary day in online school.
Intent / Goals
FOR YOU: One technical goal I made for myself as an editor was to make sure the edits and cuts I made were clear what they were and you could clearly see what kind of cut or edit I did. One Creative goal I made for myself was to try something new when filming and I came up with an idea to do an invisible cut with no coffee to coffee made.
FOR THE PROJECT: I wanted this short film to be aesthetically pleasing and easy to watch. I wanted to get straight to the point and just show a conventional day in the life of a highschool online student.
Research
I rewatched the 13 edits youtube video about five times just to really grasp what each edit was really about and how to make it happen.
I thought that their examples in the video were really easy to understand and they explained each cut very comprehensibly.
Questions
Was each cut shown easy to decipher?
Did all of the cuts blend together and make sense inside the film?
Peer Feedback
The fade-out cut was not necessary
The standard cut putting the cup on the table needed intention also
