This is the week to revise your documentary. You will have Tuesday and Thursday to make modifications in class. Although we will begin to move on next week, you will have additional time to revise and enhance your work.
For today's response (individual)
List at least 3 things you would like to modify right away with your documentary. Be specific. For example, if you have an interview with low audio, make sure you address low audio, don't say, 'fix audio'. We want to target problems to find solutions, particularly in the audio area.
When finished, get with your group and exchange ideas, review feedback.
To hand in today (group):
Printed list of revisions you would like to make to your project in list, with student assigned to each task or list item. Hand in to Mrs L.
Some of you will be doing hands on editing, After Effects or more. Others might be doing research to help find photos, track down audio solutions, find music, etc.
Finally, for the few people who do not have a specific role/task for the week, you will be assigned a Linkedin career research project to present to the class next week.
I think that one thing I would like to improve is maintaining the audio level throughout. Then I would like to get more in-person interviews to add in. Finally, I would like to decrease the amount of voiceovers in it.
ReplyDeleteaudio levels are low

ReplyDeleteadjust voice over volume

For one I would change the audio levels and the background music audio. They don't seem to go together at times. Also, the lighting is at times too dark to see. I would also shorten the interviews a bit because there are parts where people repeat what they say.
ReplyDelete1. Parallax Scrolling
ReplyDelete2. Incorporate all into one scrollable page
3. Tooltips for map
1. Make audio levels lower so it doesn't distract from the voiceover.
ReplyDelete2. Switch music with instrumental version so it doesn't take away focus from the documentary.
3. Make transitions smoother so the story flows better.

ReplyDeleteBetter b-roll
Better soundtrack
we would like to adjust our audio as it fluctuates, we need b-roll that applies better to the interviews, and our transitions into some interviews need to be better.
ReplyDeleteAudio level for second interview needs to be raised
ReplyDeleteStatistics need to be animated and put in
Cuts need to be smoother and less abrupt
I would fix a couple of the jump shots we have in our interviews
ReplyDeletewe still have to even out the audio (lower the background music)
get better b-roll
We need to explain a little more what "The Gap" is, more statistics, and better b-roll because our b-roll was not good at all.
ReplyDeleteI'd like to modify the audio levels a little more.
ReplyDeleteI would change the intro screen (A doc by p. 2)
Put in some better B-Roll.
1) We need more variety in b-roll, especially in poorer areas.
ReplyDelete2) Equalize audio levels, in interviews the volume level jumps so we need to fix that
3) Better ending; we need a conclusion and show solutions
The main problems that need to be fixed right away are the audio and music levels (which the music was off and on and really awkward at times), then we need to iron out the transitions, make them more appealing to the audience, finally we need to fix the MLA errors.
ReplyDeleteAudio appears to be the biggest wrench in our engine of success. We are going to attempt to make Dave sound human, reduce reverberation, and have consistent music. Keep the font consistent, and use MLA format.
ReplyDeleteWe are planning to implement a parellex effect to the website. We are also going to change the about page into the home page and have a page for maps. Also, Additya will improme the maps with toolips
ReplyDeleteWe plan to adjust the music so the interviews can be better heard and more effective. Also, we plan to fix the transitions in so the piece as a whole can be more smooth. Lastly, we plan to take better excerpts of the total interviews we have so we can convey our topic in a better manner.
