*there is a curse word in this video! be warned!!!!!!!!!!!*
yes, loneliness is spelled wrong in the video because i do not believe it should be spelled that way
There was no plot to this video as it was an abstract video, but I wanted a general theme of school. The video both started and ended with video, but everything was mostly stop motion. A theme from my previous video (Treat Video) was teleportation, but this time it wasn't that Maggie could teleport, but more like tiny scenes of her in class. While I did have fun making the video, the stop motion was killer. It took an entire week and definitely was the biggest challenge. I tried to differ my shots in this video since I didn't in the Treat Video. I added shots like the feet, or how the viewer watches Maggie move down the hall. But I did the opposite during the scenes in the classrooms by trying to use the same angle for continuity. I learned a lot during this project. I learned how to add filters (black and white) and layer videos (the VHS effect) as well as edit the general length of the clips and zoom in and zoom out of shots.
The general idea is that Maggie McKinney has the ability to teleport, but only uses her ability to get Cheerios when she's hungry. While the premise sounds kind of silly, I had a lot of fun creating it. We mostly filmed in Giant Eagle, which I regret. But I had to film Maggie disappearing I had to film her standing there and then not move the camera while she jumped out of the shot. Which was probably the biggest challenge. I tried to get some different angles, like the close-up of her face, but most of them are the same. And there's a shot where she stands in front of a bright window. Since this was my first project in Premier, I learned how to cut out unnecessary parts of the video and how to edit the volume of my clips and music.
