Jem and the Holograms Makeup Tutorial

Another How to Cosplay instructional video! This one is a Jem and the Holograms makeup tutorial. I had a lot of fun making this video. I'm a huge fan of '80s cartoons and Jem is one of my favorites. This shoot was a little more complex than my previous one. I used three cameras for this shoot, two for my main setup, and one for shooting b-roll. I used the Voice Recorder Pro app on my iPhone to record audio. Shout out to my husband Karl for helping me start and stop cameras during filming. He's the best! Assignment: Create [...]

How to Cosplay: How to Put on a Wig

Bringing it all together! This instructional video was a lot of fun to make, but also super tedious since I was filming myself with a little help from my husband Karl who helped stop and start the cameras. I used a two-camera setup to record the footage and used the Voice Recorder Pro app on my iPhone to record the audio. It was a challenge to sync everything up in Premiere Pro but I figured it out. Overall I'm really happy with how this video came out minus one or two audio issues. I definitely have a newfound respect for [...]

Remembering Joshua

My sister lost her fiance Joshua to an accidental overdose. After his passing, she had to pack up and store all their belongings in a storage unit and move back home to live with our parents. It's crazy how quickly and unexpectantly life can change. This video was shot for a class assignment. My sister graciously volunteered to be my subject and appreciated the documentation of this very difficult time in her life. Assignment: Create a five-shot sequence. No sound.

Grad Journal: Fall 2018, Week 5

Year 3, Week 5: September 17th – 23rd My busy weekend left me feeling exhausted all week. Tuesday-Thursday were a real struggle. My back hurt all week thanks to me overexerting myself at the Photo Club photoshoot on the 15th. I was chronically tired and had trouble waking and getting going each more. On Wednesday I suffered a really bad migraine attack. I felt it coming on before I left my house but was in such a hurry I forgot to take something for it. I was rubbing my right temple and covering my right eye for most of my [...]

Grad Journal: Fall 2018, Week 4

Year 3, Week 4: September 10th – 16th What a crazy busy week. I was sick all week, but on the mend after seeing a doctor on the 9th. The Photo Club had its first officers meeting, and it's second meeting of the semester, and a big photo shoot with APO on Saturday. For my classes, I worked on video projects and 3d modeling in SketchUp. I had an hour-long lecture/demo/presentation in the Senior Projects class on Thursday. It was fun and went well but was a lot of work. And then there were other meetings, projects, and activities. I [...]
