Production Blog - Moving Forward!

     Hey guys, It's Lindsay! Continuing further into my commercial, I have now begun piecing together the project. Before, I had edited the videos and made sure I had an organized plan for the commercial. Now, I am transferring the photos onto CapCut. I selected the final edited versions, with the clipped videos and downloaded them on my editing software. Then, I chose the duration that I wanted each piece of media to be displayed for. I am aiming for my final product to be around 30 seconds, so it is important that I choose the durations wisely. I uploaded my first video clip of my friends and I laughing together. Then, I chose a cover photo of my best friend and I in the Keys together. This really represents me, and shows a little bit of the summer I had over 2023.

     I finally had all the content uploaded to CapCut. I then selected where in the commercial I wanted the media pieces, and put them all together. Then, I figured out how to lay music over the video, and select which part of the song I was going to use. I had to do a voice recording of my song. Next, I edited the cover of my commercial, and added in some fun transitions. I had a little trouble selecting the transitions, and didn't always know what was going to looks good. But in the end, my progress came together. I am still figuring out if I need to make any further edits. Some of the lighting and sizing of the photos were still off, so I made sure to fix those in the app. I never realized how enhanced CapCut is. I am so thankful for this software, because without it, I would have had so much trouble creating this commercial. Although I am still not done, I am confident my end product will be phenomenal. Bye guys! Until next time!
