This wasn\u2019t the first idea that I had\u2026I started with a stop-motion idea and became overwhelmed\u2026storyboarded an entire music video and realized that there just wasn\u2019t enough time to accommodate the schedules of the people I wanted to feature in it.<\/p>\n<p>This trailer wasn\u2019t any less of a challenge, but was at the least, within the realm of possibility for such a short project. Just as a breakdown, I animated the \u2018Melt Show Media\u2019 logo and while it isn\u2019t complicated I believe it is effective. I used one of the advanced tutorials for the \u2018Dawson Road Productions\u2019 clip and used some other online tutorials for the tagline animations. All of that plus the video effects were done in After Effects. I then used Premiere Pro to sew it all together and edit the audio. The scene right before the man leaves the house was a personal homage to Edgar Wright and his quick-cut sequences in Sean of the Dead &amp; Hot Fuzz. I tried this with the zoom effect he uses in conjunction with the quick-cuts as well and it was a mess so I re-shot it.<\/p>\n<p>The video is just meant to be campy, and not taken seriously at all\u2026and you wouldn\u2019t believe the number of people I showed this to whole thought it was meant to be a very serious type of video.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d really like to do some more of this type of video work in the future \u2013 this is the first time I\u2019ve ever shot and edited anything of my own and think that with some practice and guidance, my background in photography could translate well into a motion medium. This was a lot of fun, and hope you all find something in it that you can enjoy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\"><iframe class=\"youtube-player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/7bAFyVcaZuI?version=3&amp;rel=1&amp;fs=1&amp;autohide=2&amp;showsearch=0&amp;showinfo=1&amp;iv_load_policy=1&amp;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-ratio=\"0.5628571428571428\" data-width=\"700\" data-height=\"394\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reading &amp; Writing: Finishing out the last chapter was bittersweet \u2013 while the context didn\u2019t greatly affect the outcome of this last module, it did frame what the future holds for creatives once a project is done.
