Independent Task 1
For my independent task, I filmed and editing skate videos. Making skate videos consumes so much time because of the time it takes to film for them. Sometimes filming for a trick can take anywhere from 10 min up to one hour, just for one trick, trying it over and over until you get it. And one trick is only about 7 sec in a video, when the over all video is about 3 min. An example of this, is pro skater video parts are usally 3-4 min long, and these parts take anywhere from 5 to 10 years to film. Since I am still amature, I am able to make videos in a weekend. Also editing takes anywhere from 1-3 hours.
The following is a log of the 40 hours I have done and the 5 videos that came out of it.
By just making skate videos, I am working on three skills, skateboarding its self, camera work, and editing. Which all are possible answers for my EQ. Along with getting practice when I skate for these videos, I also film my friends which helps me with my camera work. Then when I edit the videos, I work on my editing skills.
