Day 4-Content and Video

Hello.(:

We were briefed by Alfie today on some compulsory matters we had to include in our MOIP1 video project.

They were:

1.) Interviews
2.)Interviewees
3.)Visual Overlay
4.)Opening Intro
5.)Closing


Essentials of a video and it's content.

1.) STYLE

Once again, we also looked into the style of our video we want to present it in.
( This was Alfie's way of making sure we were close to our requirements and refer back to our checklist constantly.)

The various elements that make up a style are as follows:

1.) Theme
2.) Look
3.)Graphics
4.)Text
5.)Audio : sounds,music,soundtrack,sfx etc.
6.)Content Layout : script.

Alfie also explained to us that his preferred way of making a video is by planning all the elements first with the content layout being the last so that it will be easier to come up with related topics that fits the script. And the opening introduction should last for at least 5 minutes if it is 30 mins long and at least 3 mins if it is 10 mins long.

2.)What are we selling ?

We have also got to be very clear of what impressions we intend for our audiences to walk away with at the end after watching the video.

3.)Objective-How do we engage?

Thus, we have to know what objective do we want to sell. Do we want them to feel the fun,the adventures and excitement involved, or how different we are from the others that makes us outstanding?

4.)OUTLOOK

Yet, at the same time, consider how do we achieve this.
At the end of it all, we have to decide the outlook of our video. Do we want it be a MTV style, a documentary, or amazing race style,etc.

End.

It was a nice day, Shuxian gave me the wire! So nice of her.

That's all for today,
allebest to everyone!(:
