Update of the Week

Phew! We are getting down to the last sprint of the semester. However, this week has been extremely productive, so I think my group is in very good shape.

First of all – I finished the trailer! Whoo! I think it looks pretty good. We decided to cut out the voice over, because I couldn’t figure out how to get my audio to blend well with his – there is too much noise on his, and not enough on mine. I never thought I would say this, but gosh darn you digital media lab and all your fancy equipment! :) Quite frankly, it is probably for the best. Since our slogan is “In His Own Words” a narrator seems a little out of place. Also, I’m not the most riveting speaker anyway; James Farmer catches everyone’s attention more effectively than I can. Anyway, feel free to watch the video (I’ve embedded it below) and let me know what you think! I’d love to hear any comments or suggestions you may have!

 Next, I created an audio file for lecture ten and I think Kelsey is working on getting it uploaded to the Website. I wasn’t entire sure how to do just audio in Premiere, but it turned out to be wonderfully easy, and we got a high quality .mp3 out of it! I am quite pleased.

Finally, I took group pictures of our group for the website, and took some more pictures of the James Farmer statue in front of Trinkle. Not only are they posted online, but I made all of the statue photos creative commons licence, so hopefully someone will get to use them for an awesome project in the future.
