Then, I prepared Canva Slides according to my responsibilities as an Art Director:
  • Select costumes together with the Director (Angel). Then, show Mr Martin the photos of actors with selected costumes, full body and half body. 
    • Costume preferably not black nor white to avoid overexposed and underexposed.
  • Prepare all props.
  • Prepare make-up.
  • Props for background (consider stuff in the studio).

Here is the list of video clips and audio I have selected from the Google Drive. Yet, I rearranged the video sequence to make it look dramatic/interesting.

Progress:

1) Pre-production

I answered the questions in the proposal that was provided by Mr Martin. Out of my list of 3 favourite video trends, I chose Process/How To Videos for video shoots. I'll do the time-lapse of "Organising and Cleaning The Room" with voiceover updates.
Figure P2B.1: Insta/TikTok Treatment, Week 4 (17/05/2024)


To make sure the proposal is acceptable, I asked for feedback from Mr Martin. He said the idea was acceptable, but try to add humour to the video clip, or else it is too weak. After that, I prepared storyboards for the entire guide for Project 2B. For your info, I might make some changes during the production shoot and post-production since this storyboard was only a draft/overall guide.
Figure P2B.2: Storyboard, Week 8 (11/06/2024)

Then, I downloaded the memes/images, sound effects, and music as the editing materials.

I was writing the 'To Do List' for the video shoot.

Week 9 (20/06/2024)

Post-production

After I was done with the production shoot, I started to do the voiceovers and uploaded them into Google Drive.
Figure P2B.6: Voiceovers, Week 9 (20/06/2024)

Then, I imported the videos and voiceovers to Premiere Pro to trim the video and sync the audio.
Figure P2B.7: Trim and Sync, Week 9 (20/06/2024)

I added the editing materials such as memes/images, sound effects, and music.

I also added the captions to the videos.

I edited the audio to make it more 'dramatic'.

I colour-corrected and colour-graded some video clips as well.

Lastly, I used the Effect Controls to add the motion such as scale and anchor point.
Figure P2B.13: Effect Controls, Week 9 (20/06/2024)


I got feedback from Mr Martin, he said that some scenes look like raw videos (high exposure), and need to do the colour correction. So I did the colour correction again.

REFLECTIONS

Experience
I enjoyed Project 2B, the Insta/TikTok Proposal, the most from Project 2 because it allowed me to create any content I wanted. I chose to focus on room organization and cleaning, which was a great idea because I could clean my room while filming video content. I also had the opportunity to add humor with memes, sound effects, music, and more. I would say this is the best project I've done so far.
