 It's about that time again! Well, I say "about", but to be precise it's fourteen minutes until it's due.
In any case, this semester's final was super enjoyable- I like it a lot more than the one last year, although that's not to say they were both fun in their own ways. But I got to be a lot more emotional with this one certainly, and the experience of making it definitely fit with my style. We didn't have as much time as any of the previous projects- only two class periods and the final of whole dedicated work. Nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the way that I was able to work on it, especially considering the subject matter. If the last video I made was the one that appealed to my personal hobby the most, I can certainly say that this video is the one that I felt I was able to make the most emotional impact with. Like any project, the initial plan for it was different than the final result for time reasons, but I stand by the end product just the same. The main regrets I have was that I underestimated my ability to clean up background audio in final cut- A lot of the general sounds of the school in some scenes still shine through, and while I was able to edit out some annoying bits, a couple interacted with the main video in such a way that it wasn't able to get cut. The thing I'm happiest with the most is how fate lined up when it came to the backing audio (which, sneakily, wasn't actually played by me! Also meaning I didn't have to spend time memorizing a new song) completely synced up without me needing to use any effort. I barely had to cut anything for the musical beats to line up in their best measure, and I can't stress enough how fortunate a turn of events that was. I loved making this final, and while the backing audio issues hinder the overall result, I stand very happy with what I ended up with.
