Final Project

I had 2 choices that I really liked for my project which were the swim montage video, and the animating a painting. In discussion we threw around new ways to do that painting, but I'm not sure how much time I would have to do it if I filmed myself actually painting one of his works, and I think it would take from the concept I initially had, so I started doing the swimming project over the weekend. This is going to a be a video, that has re-edits, and is like the montage project because I;m trying to portray the emotions that someone feels from either watching swimming, or being the swimmer before and during the race.

My plan:

I already got together videos of you tube that I imported to iMovie and started to take apart

During this week I am going to look for music that I think will build up energy, and nervousness

I have video from when I swam on a tape at home, which I was thinking I could somehow convert and maybe incorporate it into my video, so I'm going to bring that home after Thanksgiving and see what I can do with that.

I am organizing my video now, it starts off with showing the swimmers before the race, then goes into the start, then the races, and after them. I broke up the before and the starts from the videos I have, I just need to place them together and make it flow better, which I will do over break.

Then when we come back just work on taking out the things I don't need and improving how the music fits with what's playing.
