Video process

Something I'm most definitely proud of with our group was the video!

What was our inspiration?

We wanted to capture the life of the people by using a different mean, not just photo taking. To capture the sound and the movement was something we were interested in.

How is the video like?

We focused on fast forwarding the video and make it into a time lapse thus it won't be too draggy and long. Plus from a camp all of us recently went to; DOTC1, their video was somewhat interesting and we followed the style.

How did we do it?

  • The recording


On our second visit there, we recorded the view of what could showcase several stuff and ensured that it was sufficient to add in description of the place. The recording was done in two separate days. One for the whole morning and the other one to record what happens at night where we stayed throughout the whole day. The people there did not really mind us filming but some looked at us as though we were from Mediacorp, which we are not.
  • To choose the relevant clips we wanted to use.
  • The words to add in and where it is suitable.
Here are some messy (or not) documentations of how it all came about.


 What comes after what and what is the main thing we're showing.
 Simple demographics to put in.
Descriptions.
Flow of it all.
Not up to standard sketch of while we were there, waiting for time to pass.
  • We then had to think of what music to fit in and the time the whole video will be taking.

We wanted to add in elements of cuteness and fun too. So we have everyone in our group to record a non moving video but it was a cute failure.

A lot of work, but the end product was really satisfying.
