– IV-2: Create A Lyric Video
– IV-3: Lip-Sync Along
What Did I Learn?
I mainly learned two things. One, writing a script for something is a lot harder than I had initially expected. To be fair, I don’t really have much conversational skills to translate into creating a fake conversation well, so I guess that’s on me. Secondly, I learned that apparently films have a ton of very tiny details in regards to how they’re presented to the public. Like, I knew that scenes such as the Avengers Assemble scene or the famous Matrix dodging scene were made well, but I never understood quite why they were good until now.
What was easier or harder?
Making the movie review were kind of trivial. I expected them to be complicated since I never really rewatch the movies unless I really enjoyed them the first time, but just analyzing a scene once or twice, it’s easy to see the fine details as long as you know how to look for them. Making my own videos, however, was way harder than I expected. I thought it’d be simple enough since I already had experience, but doing so with in a small time frame and with multiple videos was definitely rough.
What can I improve?
Other than the previously mentioned scripting skills, I just need to learn everything else through trial and error. Likely mostly error, but that’s what learning’s all about.
