Christian Union Documentary

My idea for my own personal project is to make a documentary/promotional video about the Bath Spa University Christian Union.

The city of Bath has a growing community of Christains.
The Christian union in Bath Spa University has been running for five years and has a very big influence on the students in the university.

I propose to make a five to eight minute video which will explore and promote the Christian union in Bath Spa. I will interview some of the members and speak to the presidents of the CU as well as filming one of their sessions. my aim is to educate students in the university about the Christian religion as well as the the aims and goals that the christian union in the university has set out to achive.

As I am a member of the Christian union and being a member has inspired me to make this video
I will use music that I have composed myself.

By the end of the video I hope it will interest people and I hope people will be inspired to come along to one of the sessions I would also like to post the video up onto the Bath Spa Su website if it is done to professional standards.

City Of God Remake

 

Recently in class we were given an exercsise by our tutor Mike. We were given a thirty second clip from the film the City Of God to Edit.

 

• What the film looked like

 

The clip, which had been muted, was a sequence which was lasted for thirty seconds. It started off with a young boy being chased by a mob and police officers, midway through the clip the scene transformed into the same boy a few years younger playing football in a park with some other children

 

• What I attempted to create

Using the Soundtrack Pro software I attempted to create a realistic soundscape for the scene using the most natural and artistic sounds although I sought advice from Phil one of the lectures in the university who lectures creative media and he liked my idea but thought i should go for the simple option instead of complicating my video by saturating it with a lot of sounds.

 

• How I found using the Soundtrack  Pro software

I found the Soundtrack Pro software very easy to use when adding the sounds to a particular motion displayed on the clip. I enjoyed being creative with the software especially when using the multilayering and keyframing format as the software was very easy to adapt to.

• What would I change if I were to do it again?

If i were to repeat the exercise, I  would add more of an atmosphere during the crowd scenes as I don't think the crowd noise I added to that particular sequence was strong enough to merit the actual picture in that present time but more or less I am happy with my finished edit.
