ALM102DC ASSIGNMENT 2

Technology has become a huge part of people in our digital age. The appearance of AI can be seen as a significant mark of the worldwide technological development. It is undeniable that people get huge advantage from AI. However, AI has been one of the most controversial issues recently. Therefore I want to make a video to demonstrate why AI is still controversial while it brings a lot of benefits to people. In this video, I want to show negative aspects that can also affect people.

During making process, I have realized that it took a lot of effort to create a video. They require a lot of different steps. I started working on my video by setting up the main idea and the message that I want to deliver to the audience. In this step, I create my script and plan out what will be put in the video. Then, I started filming A-roll parts in order to create the content frame for the video. Personally, I love the idea of putting all of the A-roll parts together before deciding what to add into the video because it gives me the better idea of the video construction. After that, I move straight to the editing step. Instead of researching for images, and video in advanced, I chose to do them and editing at the same time. For me, it is less time-consuming and more effective doing this way. However, unlike video and images, I chose my background music right after I created my script since I found that finding suitable background music. It might sound like an easy job but it always bothers me a lot since it is not easy to find background music that suitable with your video spirit and also meet the copy right’s requirement. My three main sources for this video are Youtube, Flickr and Souncloud. All of the works that I chose to use from these 3 platforms are all under creative commons licensed so they are legal to use.

I have been learning a lot from this video making process. Unlike the introduction video for the first assignment, video that is made to demonstrate and inform people take a lot more effort and work since copy right has always a problem. Luckily, at the end of the day, I finally have some skills to identify the legal source which are allowed to use. However, one of the biggest problems of the video is the final stage. After I uploaded the video on Youtube and and re-watch it, I found that the size of the video frame has been changed into square. For this problem, I still haven’t known what are the reasons behind this change and how to deal with it.
