A.
- My position was a bit of everything. Id say my main positions consisted of director and editor. I kind of led the filming process while also doing a good bit of the filming, some audio work, and did the editing.
2.
a. We were properly prepared
b. I did complete the sound work in lab
c. The edit was complete with all of the appropriate visual and sound elements
3. The ways in which we were able to work effectively together were tag teaming the intro filming. Perry worked the camera while I plugged the Vectrex in and Evan controlled the lighting, it would have been impossible to do alone. In addition, another time we worked together efficiently was during Arturo’s interview we did pretty much the same thing except I was using the camera, and Perry was recording audio.
4. I would like more and better b role, we had plans to get more both Monday and Wednesday, but the class was cancelled both days so we couldn’t get a hold of the vertex to film. We managed though.
B.
- I think the message was quite simple and easy to get across, we basically just highlighted and promoted the history of a peculiar piece of memorabilia from video game history. I personally think the quality of structure flowed fairly well.
- The pacing is a little quick for my taste, I wish I could have put a bit more room to breath in between audio, however It didn’t flow nearly as well so I made the decision to leave out a bit of voiceover-less b role.
- There are a few layers of sound elements that In my opinion flow very nicely. On top is the voiceover by Arturo, which is the loudest, with music below it and a bit of static on the bottom.
- As I mentioned earlier, I think the dialogue is a bit used too heavily, however it doesn’t flow as well with the dialogue removed.
- The overall impact is not what I had originally envisioned, as I wanted it to be really over the top in the style of 80s commercials. My team mates didn’t particularly care to act out in that manner, so it is what it is. In any case I think it has an overall very positive impact.
C.
So, Arturo, I’ll leave this one to you, as I cannot accurately address your reaction as a client. However, I have to say I am personally very proud of how it came out and I think it does justice to the Vectrex.
