Blog Assignment 4

Our original idea was to make a video Halloween themed since when we were originally assigned the project it was close to Halloween. The video would had been the "Do's and Don'ts" of Halloween where I would play a Trick 'r Treater presenting what should and shouldn't be done in a "Goofus and Gallant" style scenario. Unfortunately only 3 of the 5 people in our group seemed to agree on a certain time to meet up and film and even then it was difficult to get a hold of everyone. After we spent a day of shooting for the video and the assignment being due in less than 2 days, the video idea was scrapped and the focus was now changed to a podcast where 2 of our teammates discussed their favorite horror films.

What worked was the chemistry between the two spokes people. If the audio was a bit tidier, I'd say this would be a pretty good team for an actual podcast show.

What didn't work was our original video idea which sadly is now gathering virtual dust in someone's ipad. If I were to change anything about the final product of this project I'd say it would be continuing focus on the video because we were sharing some really funny ideas and I think it would've been fun to finish it all the way.

One Picture, One Word

For the "One Picture, One Word" project I looked among pictures I took of my Halloween Costume, "Homeless Spiderman" as a subject. Pictures I took included the following:

Of all the pictures I liked the one best so I took it, brightened the colors, and added the text "Halloween" to emphasize to viewers that this was my Halloween costume. The result was this:
