final out come

The final video has become quite a personal memory to my dad.

editing video

With the editing for the short video I wanted it to be simple so that people would only pay attention to what was in the video, not the effects or the colours.

I placed all the clips in the bottom sequence window. I made sure that the clips of my dad talking about the photograph and the memories that comes with the photo were just the audio as I want the description and memories to be herd over me drawing what I remember from the photography.

As I had my dad talking about the photograph I wanted to include the short clip I did on the photograph its self but I did not know if it should have been placed at the beginning or at the end, if I had it at the beginning I think it would have shown that the photograph has been remembered were as if I placed it at the end it would show that it is something that will be remembered.

After I placed all the clips in the places that I thought would work best I  decided that I did not want any colour to distract people from what they are seeing so changed all the clips to black and white except the clip of the photograph because I wanted show that that is how it will be remembered in full colour.

I didn't just want to clips to change from a back and white clip of the drawing to a photograph in colour so I had it fade from one clip to the other and then fade out from the photograph to blackness while my dad said the last part that I thought deserved to be blank.
