Popping the Question



This is my midterm project for my 'Storytelling' class at SU.

This is not the story I attempted to tell.  The first attempt at this was with video, not still images, and I was using FinalCutPro to edit.  It turns out, my version of FCP cannot handle High Definition video, and my laptop cannot handle the latest version of FCP.  So after a full day's work, I had to scrap the project.  I tried editing in other programs, but nothing gave me what I needed for the price I was willing to pay (nothing).

I may end up using that footage for an extra credit assignment, as the voiceover has already been recorded and music synced.  There is a computer lab where I work that has the software and equipment I need to finish it up.  Here's hoping!

On to this assignment.  It's fairly basic, I used Audacity (which I'm really enjoying more every time I use it) for audio and WeVideo to throw it together with pictures.

The story speaks for itself, and it's two minutes long, so I'll just let you see for yourself.

A love story! It doesn't look like you through this together as your post suggests. Lovely visuals and a nice selection of music. I wasn't sure if you purposely cut your voiceovers tightly together but would have liked a bit more breathing room between some of the edits.
