MERGER PHOTOOOOO

Intro to Imovie

1) Summarize: What you watched and read about -- I read about how to split a clip and turn into 2 different clips. How to edit between the event library and project library. Also read about importing files from the computer. I also read about making a trailer and how to make it look professional. And how to add sound in IMovie. I also read about how to make a video look more professional and like it was made in Hollywood. 

2.) One thing that I already knew about iMovie that the website explained was how to put a theme to a video. 
3.) One thing I learned that I did not know is how to trim clips. 

4.) What are you concerned about with this final project? 
-I am concerned about narrating the video. 
5.) What are you confident you can complete early and have ready to use? 
-I am confident in being able to take the pictures I need and making them look good. 

6.) If I asked you today what do you think you will do for your video? 
-I would probably do my video on my dog or cats..

The Big Day

Well, from what I got when I first watched it was the guy driving the car, who I am assuming is the groom is late for his wedding or a boyfriend. He keeps getting slowed down and stopped along the way. When he finally gets to the church he runs in only to find the bride being married to another guy, he's too late. 

Who -- Groom or boyfriend, and bride 

What -- He's late

When -- During the day on his wedding day. 

Why -- The commercial doesn't say why he was late or what's going on very clearly. 

Where -- Road and a church

How -- I don't know
