Guess who's back. Back again!
Me. Of course. Its Isahiah Melendez again, and today... again.. I'm giving you some insight on my journey. This is the journey, the adventure, the trek, to making my magnificent commercial. A commercial, not about a product, but about me. The star. The star and main focus in a video that I get to personally edit and add my own spice onto. Learning to use CapCut is definitely the biggest hurdle. There are lots of features and capabilities. Those of which i need to consider how much im using. I cant add too much VFX as to flood the video. Doing so would cause distraction from the actual content. On the other hand, I cant put too little effects because it could over simplify the commercial. Taking into account all the shiny new gadgets coupled with CapCut. I think itll be hard for me to avoid all of the bells and whistles. I think simple transitions should do with simple SFX. For example a camera flash SFX here and there.Once again, im still a rookie so im cutting myself some slack. Just not too much because I was into editing in the past, and id be disappointed to not perform.

Hey there! It's me again... Isahiah! Today is the first day that I'm going to talk about the production of my commercial. Now, first of all, I'm not going to lie. I'm still not exactly sure how what or how I'm going to do for my project. However, I have started brainstorming what song I'd like to use to represent me. As covered in my previous blog, I'm a big fan of storytelling artists such as J Cole and I really enjoy artists' music that contain creative instrumentals such as Travis Scott. While it's very easy for me to go ahead and pick my favorite song or song that I like, I can't just choose any song for this occasion. The song has to enable me to edit my content because without the proper cadence a video can prove very difficult to edit, and I'd like for things to have as little difficulty as possible. There are many artists that often produce songs that are very easy to edit over, and I do happen to like some of their music. Artists suc...
