Verbal Landscapes


Hello people of the world, Kyla is back with another blog post. YAY! I'm going to be talking about different ways nature impacts my life. Nature is what keeps us alive, it provides us food, water, shelter and air. Which basically means that nature impacts my life A WHOLE LOT. Without it I wouldn't be living, nature can live without us humans but we can't live without nature! Nature is a very beautiful thing that we kinda are destroying, people should start seeing what we're doing to it. We're slowly destroying it over the years and soon we won't have a place to live in. My life is revolved around nature, nature is where I live so my life is affected a lot. Nature is very important since it helps me live. Wow, that barely made sense but bare with me :)

For our new project, we're going to create 3 time lapses and 2 slow mo videos, that's the minimum, you can go over and beyond and make 5 timelapses or 4 slow motions. We're going too create these videos either in our phones where it has an option on the camera to make the video into slow mo or make it into time lapse. Although, if some of us don't have a phone that has those options, we can sign out a camera and take videos, take it back to school and start editing it in Final Cut. Final Cut lets you fasten the video to make it into a time lapse or slow it down, there's an option called retime. Using a computer or a phone won't be a difference since they're both going to make the same aftermath. A cool thing about final cut is that you can put your slow motion at a pace that you'd like it to be. It goes for making it fast too, if you want it REALLY fast because the clouds were moving really slowly, then you can make it REALLY fast. You can customize how slow or fast you want it to be basically.

The hardest part of taking my clips were getting the sunset and sunrise at a good place. My mom is lazy too and doesn't wanna drive so that's a down part. Also getting the angle you want at the right time and not wasting too much time that the sunrise or sunset passes by, that happened like twice for me which was frustrating. Although, I got my sunset and sunrise during the weekend so that's a good thing for me. I am very happy about that because they turned out good. The only bad part was when the camera couldn't detect how bright the sun was so it just made a huge white line and i couldn't do anything about it. My favorite part was watching the sunset and the sunrise, it's a beautiful thing that not everyone can see. How the colors pop out the sky, it's AMAZING! Just witnessing how nature works and admiring it and letting it do it's thing, it's relaxing.
I'm so happy with the results, I never thought I'd get the most votes but I did! :)

Critique Reflection: I agree with the results, the only thing I could've done is take out "Please Our Eyes" because that was just bad. Although, my whole entire video turned out okay I guess :) I like it but now I'm just regretting putting "Please Our Eyes" everything else was good, it's just that part that bothered me. When we were watching mine, I was tossing and putting my head down because I thought everyone would think it was bad but I guess not AND IM HAPPY ABOUT THAT :)
