5 Classmates Presentations

Geo

I liked Geo presentation because it shows that a lot of work went into his video and that he really loves what he does. When he was talking about what he does to make the song. It seems that it takes a lot of work to do produce the song. Then when it goes into making the video, it takes courage to go out into public and get the settings that he wants. In fact, he took some of his new cautious video in a grocery store. He probably had people watching and wondering what he was doing. If he did not edit the video at all, I bet that it would look pretty awkward and they would just look like they were mouthing words and moving their bodies in an awkward fashion.

Tristan

Tristan is also another person that put a lot of work into what he does. He probably spends most of his free time editing and recording his short films. He also explores going outside of video editing and created a nice routine for editing his videos. He started doing music and sounds for effects and background music that he couldn't find or be satisfied with on the internet for free. 

Caleb

I find what Caleb is interesting because he wants to try to basically create a new scene for people to fight. I think that this isn't as simple as someone just placing buildings and walls randomly. You have to think where the building need to be placed because you want the player to move strategically throughout the map that they are given. You also wants walls to be placed in which the player can peek on the sides and create angles so that they can hold the enemy team back.

Carrie

I think that Carrie's is interesting and different that than the others in how he goes to the animated side of thing. Everyone else mainly focused on the 3D models animations or filming real people. However, Carrie is drawing everything that he wants to animate. It's also interesting in how he is going about it. He records real life video and then traces over it frame by frame. I also think that you can learn from his work, in how he sometimes doesn't want to try new things that may speed up his progress.

Andrew

I thought that his video on Las Vegas was very well done. There were a lot of things that were impressive when watching this video. You can first see that there were a lot of work put into this video. First thing that I noticed was the quality of the scene that he took of. Every short setting that was shown was all very appealing to the eye. Another thing that I took notice of was the quality of music. When transitioning to another setting of Las Vegas, it was always on the downbeat of the song. And it would progress like you were walking through where he was.
