Finally mission three! The video
project I’ve been so excited to start and been planning for weeks in advance. I
decided id work with two of my friends from college and not two people from my
class group because I wanted to organise meeting up a lot more often and it
would just be easier to be done with my close friends who I already see on a
daily basis. For this mission the topics were not very good in my own opinion, I
thought they were not very interesting at all and had no real solid goal for
any of them and as a result of that I felt that we should just pick a certain
topic that we could mess around with and try come up with something unique and
fun, once the other two were on board we began to select our topic and got it
down to mapping and networking.
The real issue was picking which topic
to focus on and what idea or project we could produce out of it we just couldn’t
decide both topics were just to similar and with us losing interest in the
topics it was becoming more and more harder to try and organise and meetup to
work on the project. We did eventually get around to it and decide on going
with mapping which I think in the end was the smartest choice, we needed to
organise equipment and who would bring what and what we needed to use in our
video like props and camera equipment.
I decided id use my new Canon EOS 250D
camera as it can record in 4k and is a brand new 2019 camera. My two friends
decided they would look for props and other issue like a room in college where
we could record and have the time to maybe edit. One major thing that we did go
out of our way to get for this project was a green screen. Now before I had
even started the mission, I knew I wanted to mess around with a greenscreen because
I’ve personally never experienced it and I thought of no better way for me to
learn about it then using it in this project. So I spent a day in blanch
looking in shops and finally got a huge section of neon green fabric in Home
Focus, everything was set in the equipment and recording aspects but we still
had no plan of action on what we would be recording or what we would even be using
the green screen for.
We needed to come up with an idea fast
otherwise we wouldn’t have anything till the last minute and it could end up complete
useless and fail the mission completely, but we weren’t ready to quit I was
ready to use this green screen and even with all my other projects happening I knew
I had to get this over and done with otherwise it will be destroying me and my
work over the last week.
