Final Advert & Reflection

This is my final advert.


At first, I was unsure about various things, such as the subject of the photo and the text. I had to make changes to the sketch, such as changing the subject to a leopard, changing the camera picture into a high-angle one, and changing the sony lens into another lens. I also struggled to find copyright-free images that I want, and in the end, I decided to settle with stock images from gettyimages, istock, adobestock, and agefotostock. Along with that, I also had to change a sony logo into making my own. Despite that, the process of making the advert is very fun. I enjoyed designing the layout of the text and images, as well as trying to find the colors that I wanted. Having to adapt and compromise to things that are different from the sketch is something that I also learned during the process. In the end, I am very pleased with my final advert.

    Good try it is a pity that you did not use a stock image as instructed as the getty image still states 'getty image' because yiou have to pay for this, this detracts from the advert. This ad seems to have two messages that it is good at close up and speed - I would have stuck to one clearer message (shutter speed) - It is a good first try at this

      Thank you for the comment! Next time, I'll try to find better pictures to use with no distracting stock logos, as well as stick to one particular message.

Website Research: Hirokazu Kore-eda and Dany Cooke

Image
In this post, I will look into two websites by filmmakers and compare both of them. This research will help me on creating my own website by considering the use of colors, layout, typography, image, useability, navigation, and my overall thoughts on the website. I will be looking into Hirokazu Kore-eda and Dany Cooke's website, with both being filmmakers and quite experienced in the filmmaking industry. I would like to learn from two websites of two very different directors, with Kore-eda a 60-year-old filmmaker that is internationally known, and Cooke a young freelance filmmaker. Hirokazu Kore-eda's Website First off, I will talk about Hirokazu Kore-eda's website. From the home page, the website looks very simple, with a showcase of stills from his films. I noticed that his website only consists of Top, News, Profile & Works, as well as Message in the navigation, with the layout being centered and in a long bar. When I scrolled down, there is his twitter feed, news f

Website Creation: Gallery Page

Image
In this post, I will talk about the process of creating my Gallery page for my website. Because the layout of the gallery page already exists, I don't have to choose a template. The font I will be using Avenir. I began by editing the "My Gallery" section on top, then I wrote a short description on it as well.  Moving on, I moved on to the projects. I deleted most projects that the website has, and included my project, which is Grief & Loss Script, a 10-15 page long script on the theme of grief and loss. In it, I also included pictures of my script and my Milanote. In the future, I will be updating this project section with my progress on the script. After finishing the "My Gallery" desktop page, I moved to edit the mobile version. I changed the title to 24px and the description to 14px. I also tried to change the size of the project since it's too small, but after trying it, the size can't be altered.  With that, I had finished my Gallery page. Check

Reflection: Moments of Sorrow

Image
I gained an interest in theme of grief and loss through films and through my own concerns. I feel that the theme itself is very heavy, and is a challenge to write because of its complexity. However, I wrote this story for more personal reasons. I often thought about whether or not I will be ready when people I loved died, and how I will be able to move on from those moments of sorrow. As such, I feel that this is personally a way of preparing myself to face that fear. Along with this, I wrote this story because I want to not only understand the nature of grief and how it affects people, but of how we can move forward from an unforgettable loss of a loved one. As an aspiring filmmaker, I am very much eager to learn about all aspects of filmmaking, especially writing which I view to be the most important aspect of films as its often the core of the story and film itself. As such, this project has helped me to do more writing, especially in terms of having to fit the story into only 15 pa
