Jabberwocky Stanza 2

Reflection: The special effect we used best was the stretch effect where you pull the picture horizontal and vertical. An example of how we used this was when we had the dragon picture. We adjusted it to horizontally move in and out to look like the dragon was flapping its wings. We also moved the jaw up and down to by using the vertical axis. The mood we tried making by using this was terryfing. Using this effect really made our video stand out. I'm pround of Laura and I's teamwork.

Special Effects Projects 2

Reflection: For the effect below we used fine edges which is in the stylize folder. We started by making the clip barely turning white and the background was still in color but as the video went longer the clip was all white and clothes had different colors. The background was totally unrecongnizable and the people in the shot were white. You might use this clip in a movie when someone is dieing and fading into the light or in this case white.

Special Effects 1

Reflection: For the effect below we chose Wave Warp in the disort folder. We first started the wave as very high moving waves by adjusting the heights but the speed of the waves were very slow at 1. Then half way through the video we turned the heights down to 1 and the speed up to 7 to create a whole different shot. You might use this in a film to create confusion or maybe if the actor is intoxicated.
