Video self portrait

The main reasons why i chose the clips i did was because these are things I enjoy to do almost everyday. So some technical aspects i had were, to find the right song that was a fast paced and dubstep song that was non copy right. I didn't wanna go through the difficulty of asking a artist for there work and not ending up getting a response or a answer in time so i just stuck with a non copy right song for my project. Also some what of another challenge I had was grabbing the highlights from each of my  videos by cutting what wasn't needed,by keeping the right footage that i would want to include into my culminating. A symbol of my project was the "MY STORY" font, it was the NHL font from Dafonts.com and i am a hockey player so i thought it worked out to my advantage.

I used a mixture of video and photos, I did this because it was a good variety, My photos were slightly edited by editing apps on my cell phone and on photoshop. I chose the photos I did because they all tied up together into this project.  The photos were slightly taken as a close up and I tried to match them up properly with the music and my videos as-well. The reason why I added the airsoft,hockey,lacrosse and lastly the xbox video was because I enjoy all of these sports and activities on a daily basis and am very competitive in everything I do. I chose the song "Tobu Life" because it was a dubstep song that is fast with no words and in sports or videogames I like to be fast and aggressive in my everyday life especially when I'm competing against other people.

My kinetic typography is titled Roll call, because the choice of my song was roll call by logic. I used adobe after affects to create this final project. the content of my work was supposed to be fast paced and    for the text to be shown as fast as the song and the lyrics to match the tempo. What i liked about my final project was that it was that i timed it really well as it was such a fast paced song which created a challenge for my self to complete with a good feeling of accomplishment. I would change how the text transitioned also i would change the sizes of the font from word to word and give them more expression while being fast paced. My design choices were that i knew it was a very fast paced song so i had to make it simple but look good so i just made all the words transition as fast as possible and made sure every lyric matched with every word i added so it looked clean. The challenges i overcame were making sure every word matched with the lyric in the song and to make all the text the exact same was a challenge and i didn't really overcome that issue and thats why i got the mark i got so , I was satisfied with the transition and basically it tying up smoothly throughout the video but i know a few touchups are needed and i need to improve many things for upcoming projects.
