Project 4 was fun to work on and most difficult to get resources on. The project was made through multiple raw videos and some are inspired videos, there are also some pictures. They are mixed and used multiple effects to go with the music.

My music was made of multiple music and sound effects. I was inspired by Hiroyuki Sawano,  Edda Hayes, and 2WEI.

The emotion of the video is a mixture of excitement and petty. The title of the video is “Skate in Sad Summer”, and it shows how the good old days use to be during summer. We skated and had fun but this summer is going to be sad since everything is in lockdown.

Making the music for the project was the most fun thing. I got to play with some of my favorite music and remixed them with other nice sound effects. I had a Zoom call with my friends and they also made some music and we shared the memes we made with different sound clips and videos.

The video was based upon mostly skateboarding and how thrilling it is to me. I used some raw footage from my older skating videos and some from friends also some of the online video clips.

I posted my project on YouTube: https://youtu.be/4Yp_l9ZEVm0 . There are many awesome videos to relate to but my time was short and the music was the length of my video.

Reflecting on the Project 2:

One of the cool thing I learned during this project is to look past my experience and coding them with HTML and CSS. Both html and css are new to me had fun playing with the functions and other features.

Css- Tricks is an amazing website to get some cool tips to put in our code. This can help build a different layout and a different background with grid.

This is one of the example where you can edit an article with various languages like HTML, CSS, and JS. Moreover I learned new codes for my style.css file and able to make some interesting changes.

I used font from Google Fonts even though the website Fonts In Use got some cool fonts too. But I got one of the cool serif font that goes well with my layout.

One thing about the project for me was choosing colors and the different making them synchronize. I used Coolors + Skillshare website for choosing the color code.

Coolors + Skillshare website got many color combinations and collections to choose from and it also comes with name, code, and visual of the color. Which makes this website easy to use and faster to get what you looking for.

The challenging part of the project was that I couldn’t make the layout more discrete then what it was. Changing the font size fit enough to make it look right with the whole file. There are many other changes that are possible to make with the project which wasn’t possible because of lack of experience with CSS and HTML. On that note, I wish you best of luck with your endeavor. Thanks 🙂 .
