video assignment 3.

Today we FINALLY decided on our chosen recipe. We are making this super yummy looking cake! We found the recipe on 'this website'. It is a chocolate aniseed ice-cream cake!

We have decided that next Saturday we will meet up at Tania's place to start the video where we will cook the dish and best of all EAT IT :)

We have learnt that before we we do the video we will have to do a storybboard and a script which we will document on a gantt chart. We will start the story board next lesson!

video assignment 2.

For our assignment my group wants to make a video on how to cook something so this lesson we were looking at different recipes. We couldn't decide on what to choose so for Friday we are going to bring in 2 recipes we like and then we'll have a vote :)

my slideshow. war; jay sean.

In preparation for our video, we had the opportunity to play around with a program called Windows Movie Maker.

In this program you can use pictures, videos, music, voice recordings to create your own movie/slideshow/video. You can use transitions and effects to your liking as well as putting a title and credit.

I decided to make a video of the song 'War' by Jay Sean; it displays the song's lyrics whilst the song playing in the background.

video assignment.

Today we started figuring out what we had to do for our assignment. The video had to be an instructional, like a 'how to' video.

In my group is Tania, Steph and Crishna. We had a few ideas including:

• How to be lady like : We were going to use Crishna as the example and we were gonna dress her and make her act all gangsta at the start then we would change her to make her to become lady like, like wearing a fancy dress, drinking tea and talking all posh
• A cooking video : We were going to like choose a fancy recipe and make it acting like those professional chefs on tv and like wear those awesome chef hats
• Makeover tutorial : We were going to use Crishna again as the example, and like dress her all up and stuff
• How to be girly : We show the transformation of Crishna, becoming more feminine :L

At the moment we are leaning towards the cooking video as we believe it will be easy and more normal.

my ringtone. dizzy; day 26.

My edited 'Dizzy' Ringtone is 'here' (click the link, then it shall take you to google docs, click download, then choose open and it shall take you to my ringtone)

I created my ringtone on a prodram called 'Audacity'. I chose my current favourite song, Dizzy by Day 26 to edit for my ringtone. What i edited:

• I cut out most of the song leaving only my favourtie parts of the song (so that the ringtone won't be too long)
• I used 'Fade in' at the start of the ringtone and 'Fade out' at the end
• I used equalization so that the really high and low sounds are gone (which may effect the sound quality in a phone)
• I used Compressor so that the really loud sounds are gone (which may effect the sound quality in phone speakers)

When i was finished editing i exported it to an mP3.

To put my ringtone onto my blog, i had to upload it to google docs and provide the link.
