Hey guys, as we continue the comedic monologue project I'm going to tell you what I learned so far. Most of the things we learned so far are things I already knew but it was good to refresh my mind with things I might have forgotten over the summer. But something I learned that I totally forgot about is padding and I will tell you guys more about it in the next paragraph. One thing that was good to refresh my mind with is the cameras. I remember I was so happy to use them but then totally forgot what some of the buttons were used for. Yikes, but as we learned more about them I became more familiar with them like I used to be. For me I think its good that I refresh my mind with thing I forgot over the summer but hopefully I learn new things as we progress into the project.
Like I said in my other paragraph, I will talk more about padding. For me I think padding is the number of seconds you wait until you start talking. I believe padding is crucial because I for sure don't want anything I said to be left out. When you press the record button, the camera takes about 5 seconds for it to start actually recording it. That's what I think but I could be wrong. Last year I remember that the ends of my visual poem audio got cut off and I had to film a new voice over again. That's why I believe that padding is very important.
So in this paragraph I'm gonna tell you about my weakness, strength, and what I could have improved on. So my weakness in this project is getting my b-roll. So for me when I thought I had exactly all my b-roll I actually didn't. So basically for me when I was trying to put in my b-roll to match my audio I realized that I didn't have the specific one for that line. But overall I think that I covered it up pretty good. Also another weakness is my acting. Every time the camera was on me I ended up laughing and it took forever to film. Also it was getting darker by the minute so I had to work fast and cooperate with the person filming me.
For me I believe that my strength were editing and putting it all together. Like I said in my last paragraph I didn't have all the b-roll for my humorous monologue so I had to work with what I had. The reason I believe that editing was my strength because I already knew how to work with imovie and that I manage to cover up the b-roll I didn't get. Overall I finished on time and no one knew about my b-roll being missing. If I could go back in time and fix what I could improve on it would be getting b-roll clips. The reason I said that because I used some clips twice and also because I know I could've done better.
So as you can see in the picture, they are my results on my humorous monologue. On Tuesday we watched everyone ones video and graded each other by our rubric. As you can see 16 people gave me a 4 and 16 people gave me a 3. I think this was a reasonable grade because I knew I could've done better. I'm pretty happy with my results because I really do agree with them. Fun fact, this is actually the first time I agree with the results. In the end of this project I learned something and that is always check if you have everything. When I say everything I mean everything.
