My
creative process was first deciding what I was going to shoot which could tell
a short story. I was already going to go support my boyfriend by watching him perform
Friday night. I thought it would be nice to compile a little video tribute to
the band, Mortgage Freeman. On Thursday I familiarized myself with the Animoto
website so that I knew what I needed to capture on camera. I asked my boyfriend
to provide a recorded song and their band logo to give it more of a personal
vibe. I came up with a rough list of what I saw were the elements of my story:
-Topic: A Mortgage Freeman Gig, Local Milwaukee Music
-Beginning: Landmark 4/8/2016 Pictures to Introduction the Venue
& Set-up
-Middle: Clips of each of the band members during their performance
-End: Clips of the whole band and the audience clapping
The
creative process continued as I looked over and organized all of the footage to
tell the story. The Animoto website took a very long time to upload the video
clips which was frustrating since I had a strict deadline and I wanted to
produce quality work. I really enjoy the vintage vinyl template and thought it
was a perfect fit for what I was trying to present. I was very relieved that
the site gave the user the ability to rotate the videos and post-process photos
otherwise that would have been a technological nightmare. I very much enjoyed
my experience documenting the band and editing the video. I was even thinking
about creating another Animoto video for my mom for Mother’s Day!
Great video, definitely felt vintage vibes! I think you did an awesome job with planning and implementing your topic. I love how you incorporated video clips into it.

Michelle, your video was a lot of fun! What a nice way to honor your Charlie (that's his name, right?) and his band--which, by the way, has an awesome name: Mortgage Freeman. Love it! Especially impressive is that you incorporated his band's music into the video. You did a great job of planning the sequence of shots, and I agree: the template you chose with vinyl is perfect. Michelle, I do hope you make an Animoto for your Mom for Mother's Day. No doubt she'd love it. Congratulations on a job well done. Dawn
