hello video group!

hey, abe here, from the web group.

heres the specs for the videos to go on the eclipse website:

for each video:

2 versions: i suggest using quicktime and the h.264 codec, so it can be played easily in the browser. 1 needs to be 640x480 the other 320x240.

interview video looking good so far!

go mongooses

my mission is... to post the video...

here you go.. your mission would be give feedbacks!!!

video editing

hey guys, i just finished the basic editing for the doco.. aaand.. i just realised we still have A LOT to do. here are the list of things that are finished:

:: basic editing and cutting of the film
:: colour balancing
:: image transition from one sequence to another (might need to be refined later)
:: have completed all the sequences and the timeline
:: id taken some screenshots of each characters for documentation purpose

things that are left to be done:

:: shooting and inserting extra footage to accompany the voiceover (i dont think the shots should be complicated, we can do some simple ones and then slow-motion them a bit)
:: bring the vid to after effects and add some graphics for the opening sequence and possibly for the name of those characters
:: record the slamming door for steph's walkout
:: refine the rest of the sound
:: i noticed that some of kyle's part have different colour balance with the others.. ive tried my best guys.. hehe

bear in mind, we still have to do the redsun ad.. i reckon we should just divide the group into 2 main teams, one to finish this doco and one to start making the ad.. otherwise we wont have much time left for the final touch.

umm... i dont know how to put videos to this blog except through youtube.. the file is pretty big, about 340 mb.. ill try to upload it, hopefully will succeed.

thats all from me, GOOOOO VIDEO TEAM! :D

the ad

another idea for the advertisement:

using high-res close up, snap shot, individual photos of people laughing or smiling; pan across or slightly zooming in and out on each photos. voice over of their compliments about red sun. might include text; displaying their first names and ages. my initial idea was black and white images with enhanced brightness and contrasts. inspired by that ad which says "violence against women, australia says no"

peace out
