In week 5, our teacher taught us some
filming techniques, including how to use lighting, composition, and
stabilizing the camera. After that, the teacher helped us form groups, and I
was assigned to Group3.

We then held a meeting to assign specific
roles. We determined the positions of Producer, Director, Assistant
Director, D.O.P, Actress, Art Director, Location Sound, and Boom Operator.
Each of us clearly understood our tasks and responsibilities. Through this
division of labor, we were well-prepared for the filming in week 6, and we
also developed a detailed shooting plan and schedule.

Week 6, we started working on
our roles and began filming. The Producer managed the schedule, the
Director guided the scenes, the Assistant Director handled logistics, the
D.O.P took care of the camera work, the Art Director set up the scenes,
the Actress performed, and the Location Sound specialist and Boom Operator
recorded the audio. Everyone did their part well.

We spent approximately 4 hours completing the shoot. Even though it was
tiring, we stayed professional and made sure each shot was good. By the end,
we were very tired, but seeing the results made it all worth it. The
experience helped us work better as a team, and we were proud of what we
achieved.
Progress :
In week 7, we each began using Adobe
Premiere Pro to edit our videos according to the task requirements, aiming
to turn our footage into a movie trailer. This process involved several
steps, such as trimming and arranging clips, adding transitions, and
enhancing the overall flow of the video.

First, I imported all the video clips into the software and adjusted the
audio to sync with the visuals, ensuring the sound levels were balanced.
Next, I performed color correction to match the visual tone with the
intended atmosphere of the trailer. By adjusting the brightness, contrast,
and color balance, I created a professional and cinematic look.

After completing the editing and color grading, I added special effects and
text to enhance the trailer's visual appeal. Finally, I included sound
effects and background music to further enhance the trailer's impact.

Progress
Shooting:
Over the past week, I dedicated my time to shooting the video for my
Instagram/TikTok project. I began by carefully selecting various locations
to keep the video visually interesting and dynamic. The process was quite
challenging, particularly when ensuring smooth transitions between different
actions. Some scenes required multiple takes to achieve the desired
flow.

Additionally, capturing the right angles while maintaining consistency
across different shots proved to be difficult. Despite these challenges, I
managed to complete the shooting phase.
Editing:
Next, I will focus on editing the video to ensure a cohesive and visually
appealing final product, adding text overlays and filters to enhance the
overall presentation.
