Video Project

A Day in The Life 

The Prompt

Create a short video that captures a day in the life, focusing on routine and storytelling through visuals. The goal is to experiment with different shot types, angles, and depth of field, while using minimal dialogue and natural sound to tell a cohesive story. This project requires the ability to plan, shoot, and edit a visually engaging narrative within a 45-90 second time frame.

The Final Product

For the final product, integrating both camera and phone footage provided a variety of perspectives, capturing different parts of my day from multiple angles. Incorporating match-on-action cuts and seamless transitions wherever possible helped maintain the flow and continuity of the video. This approach not only helped keep the pacing dynamic but also added a sense of realism and fluidity to the story. Additionally, I purposefully left some of the natural audio from my environment audible beneath the background music, allowing the sounds of my surroundings to engage the viewer and add authenticity to the overall experience. By blending these techniques, I was able to create a cohesive and engaging video that tells a clear, personal story while keeping the viewer immersed in the moment.
