Draft Video Story

For my Draft Video Story I wanted to create a Narrative that described what was happening in the video and also added more detail to why this was happening. I filmed the videos from my iPhone in one of the rooms in my house. For my final draft I would like to get actual footage of Grace at the gym, but edit and incorporate the videos that same way. What inspired me to make my video this way was in the second Premiere Tutorial we did. We had to create a narrative of Murrow Hall which I really enjoyed and wanted to create something similar. My Draft Video Story includes my friend and what is important to her in her healthy lifestyle. I included her doing different steps in her workout routine. I also included a video of her waving in the beginning to introduce the person who is in my video, and also a video at the end to conclude the video. I thought concluding the video with her and a good inspirational message from her would be an impactful way to end the video. I cut the videos so they would go along with the narrative as well has adding transitions so it added a greater effect to the overall video. After editing and finishing my video I wanted to add music in the beginning and end of the video, as well as it quietly playing throughout the video. This is where I struggled. I couldn’t directly put music from my iTunes in the video, so I decided to go without it. For my final draft I definitely want to figure out that aspect, as I think it would improve my video. I would also like to improve my footage and take longer videos so I have more to work with and can edit them differently.

  1. Hi Kelsy,
    This was a very informative video and it was cool learning new stretches for workouts. I agree that adding music would make this video a bit more exciting and I would recommend using YouTube’s creative commons music library, they have a ton of free-to-use music in videos. I would also recommend adding transitions, so the video looks a bit more put together. Overall, this is a very creative video that just needs a few changes. Good job!

  2. You did a great job with this video. The transitions in between the video clips were a nice touch that helped it look more professional and easier to watch. I liked the lighting in the video it remained consistent and your friend was clearly visible through the whole video. something you might want to consider adding is some quiet background noise. The narration sounded well rehearsed. The video starts rather abruptly so something that could improve is having a still image or an intro with one of the video or the name of your blog. The topic was a good fit for the topic of your blog. Overall you a very well put together video.

  3. I thought choosing a narrative to show a healthy lifestyle was a good idea. I thought you did a good job of laying over the right audio to the clip and making sure you could hear the audio clearly. I think maybe adding very background low music under your audio could improve the effects of the video. You could add music to the beginning or end. I think it would also look good if you add text with the names of the stretches and workouts. Otherwise, I think you did a really good job on the video.
