Happy Holidays!

I actually liked this project the most out of the others we've done. After learning the best technique to using the green screen to my advantage, John and I finished our project after only two days. On the third the only thing I had to do was add some music. I would say the most challenging aspect of this project was the fact that John was leaving school early, and even then we finished editing the entire video before most of the other groups. I think we did a good job in keeping the information as interesting as possible and the teleporting transition between holidays was a gret idea that kept the video more "playful" than serious. When it comes to things we could have done that I saw in other videos, it would have been a good idea to do a split screen ending intead of the titles with our voices. When I saw this in other videos, it kept the video more balanced I think. Also, I liked how one group used cell phones and made the conversation be a phone call. It kept the mood of the video more natural. John and I actually split the responsiblities of the project in half. Every so often, we would switch at whatever it was we were doing at the time, but I was the only one who did the music because of John's absence. Because BLT was on one of the editing days, I was only in class for about half the block, I only got to edit for a short amount of time, but John really helped out and got most of the editing done that day. If I could redo the project, I would probably do the split screen ending, like a few other groups did. We definately got to show off our more artistic and cretive sides in this video project and I can't wait to show some more next semester.
