Internet Safety

2010-10-21T11:06:00.001-07:00

The Facebook Internet Safety lecture that we heard earlier this week gave us the common themes that nothing on the internet can be deleted and that caution should always be used online. Deleting anything online is virtually impossible. Whenever one tries to delete posts of facebook or other online social networking sites the file will not be fully deleted. Deleting undesirable posts from the sites will be helpful in the process of hiding things, but this process takes a long time. After you delete something it will slowly disappear after years of other files pilling up to hide the presence of the unwanted file. Being on Facebook or other social networking sites was not discouraged by the presenter, however, he warned us of the consequences of miss using the sites. The most common negative effects that he mentioned were: loss of jobs, applying for colleges, getting sponsors, and applying for work. If someone like a college administrator, job administrator, or a sponsor representative wants to find out about you they can look into your past uses on social networking websites. This makes me question whether or not these websites are worth participating in. If their is something negative posted about me (like a picture) or something that I post that I later regret this could hurt me reputation permanently. Having a permanent stain on my record like that could hurt my life opportunities greatly as we become more and more plugged into the internet in life.

Video Production Experience

2010-10-05T18:56:00.000-07:00

To make the nordic video Mac and I used Final Cut Express. It was my first time ever using final cut and I learned a lot about the program. Final cut offers a huge variety of effects and edit abilities that can produce amazing final products. I learned most of the basics of putting clips together and placing effects into clips for transitions or zooms. Most of the editing was done by Mac and I did a lot of observing to see how the program is used. I also don't have final cut on my computer, but I am hoping to purchase the express version or download a free trial to mess with. I am planning on doing more work with video editing at our fall camp nordic trip to quebec in order to continue learning about the program. A big difficulty in making the video was finding the right times to get footage. Because most of our footage was action shots of the team skiing we had trouble filming enough. All in all the video making went well and I enjoyed learning about filming and lots about a new application that I will hopefully continue to be able to use. Fun project and we are very happy with end product of the video.

Old Spice Commercial

2010-09-30T14:33:00.000-07:00

The famous old spice commercial. This video includes many special effects and edits that I don't really understand. The video starts with what is probably a simple screen background with a shower on the set. Next we see the legs move towards either side of the screen. This must mean that for the first clip because his legs are only shown at the end they must just be blocked out. Then the screen changes and you see his legs moving along with his entire body. A lot of the movement in the video seem to be real staged actions. Like the rolling log in the water and the breaking tub at the end. You can see the log continuously spinning after he walks off of it and the creases from the breaking tub are visible after the water flows of the sides. I don't think that this old spice commercial or any of the others in this series have very complicated special effects. They probably just require a lot of materials and filming space to complete the actions of walking and movement throughout the videos. Very entertaining videos that are enjoyable to watch because of their humor and abrupt changes and effects.
