Hi! This is officially my final blog post for EDCI136. I am very excited to have reached the end of the course, and I honestly feel like I have learned a lot. I am very proud of myself for completing the course and I look forward to transferring these skills outside of class.
Below is my final vlog. Trigger warning, I do talk about my experience with eating disorders, but there is a timestamp within the video.
I am currently in the process of creating my second and final vlog.
The vlog will be another lifestyle vlog, with the topic of “What I Eat In A Day (living in residence)”. In this video, I will go through my daily life and talk about what I eat from the Cove at UVic. I will also lightly talk about nutrition, working out, and my struggle with eating disorders. While these topics may be triggering for some, they are apart of my everyday life and I am excited to share my story. There will be a trigger warning placed at the beginning of the video.
For this vlog, I am going to attempt to use Vimeo to edit, as I have never used it before. I will, however, continue to use GarageBand to edit the music I use.
Below is my thumbnail for the video (made on Canva):
Below is the video tutorial I am using to guide me through Vimeo, as I have never explored this platform before. I am very excited to give it a try!
Hi! Here is my first ever vlog! It is posted on Youtube as Unlinsted, so only people with the link (through this blog page) will be able to access it.
This video is a ‘Get Ready With Me’ (GRWM) style vlog, where I get ready for a day of classes as a university student. This is not a typical morning routine for me, but I figured what better time then the present to film my first video.
To make my thumbnail, I used a Canva template, to which I added my own pictures.
To edit the music used, I picked one of my favourite songs (Femininomenon by Chappel Roan) and put it into GarageBand. This took me about 30 minutes to edit, just because of the language in the song.
To edit the video, I used iMovie. Next time, though, I think I will try a different free editor, to broaden my skill set.
Overall, the process took me about 2.5 hours, and was really fun! I really enjoy video editing and this was a fun project for me to do.
Keep an eye out for a blog post which will detail all of the steps, a breakdown, and tips on video editing.
The video is embedded below, I hope you enjoy!
Stay tuned for next week’s video, which will be a ‘What I Eat In A Day (living in residence’ vlog!
As of right now (February 25), I have not begun filming for my video editing series. After being home for Reading Week, and coming back to Victoria with a stomach bug, it has not been easy to find the time or energy to begin this project. However! My plan is to begin filming this week.
All that being said, I have begun editing music for my videos, as well as thumbnails (thumbnail can be seen below). I will have another progress post later this week!
