Final Video Story

When first starting my Video Story I wanted to have a very descriptive narrative that went along with the videos that I took. I wanted my videos to be very straight forward and also relate to my topic. I wanted my topic choice to be clear throughout the video, and I wanted to use many transitions in order to make my Video Story more entertaining to watch.

From the feedback I received back, it was mostly good. Someone mentioned to maybe take new videos, so the background would relate to my topic more. Another person suggested having a smoother beginning to the video, and many encouraged me to add music throughout the whole video.

When making my revisions I took everyone’s ideas to mind. I decided to instead film my videos at the Recreation Center on Washington State’s campus, to have stronger footage that related to my topic more. I really enjoyed making this change to the video, and I thought it did overall make it stronger. This was one of my major changes I did. Other than that, I cut my audio to make it sound more clear and adjusted the volume. I also used different transitions instead of using the same one every time. One thing I did change my mind about was adding the music. I really wanted to do this and I even downloaded a song on youtube audio files and when I included in my video I didn’t like how it sounded. I felt with the music added you couldn’t focus on the narrative part as well, and I really wanted my narrative part to get the most focus.

Overall, I am very happy with my overall Video Story, the feedback I got was very helpful in making changes, and I thought by taking new videos it did make my Video Story a lot stronger.
