Learning To Love You More

http://www.learningtoloveyoumore.com/reports/53/53.php

I love this post because to be honest who wouldn't want to give advice to their past selves or just by a time machine and redo the whole thing? I really liked seeing what other people had to say and I actually found some posts that kind of applied to myself also. It was really cool seeing what other people have been through and how they would re do it and I loved that I was able to relate to people all around the world!

Reflection On Stop Animation Video

The meaning of our video is that love conquers all. To always be happy with you and not let anyone change that. When you are sad about something/someone, you go to a place where you can think and reflect and can become happy again, your “pocketful of sunshine”. We wanted to do something simple and unique. We were on YouTube searching for ideas and came across a stop animation video using pencils. This is where our inspiration came from because we loved the idea and built it from there, using other writing tools such as paint. One of the symbols we used was colours, especially yellow. For us these colours symbolize how full of life, happy, unique and simple Tia & I are. The yellow in specific symbolizes that even though there will be dark days (our black backdrop in one of the segments) there will always be brightness and happiness in the end. In other words, the sun will always shine again no matter how dark it may seem. I would like viewers to know how hard Tia & I worked on this project and how it reflects our personalities and emotions. We put the sequence of photos and segments in a way for the viewers to not only feel the emotion and message of the song but to feel our emotions & how we interpreted its message through our photos. I am completely satisfied with our final project because I know that we put our heart & 100% of our effort into this video, portraying not only our hard work but our emotions as well. We strived for excellence, trying our best to meet our own high standards for our-selves. We find stop animation very interesting so we really wanted to give out our all, push our limits and see what we could produce. I think what we could have improved on was making it a more consistent and stable environment when referring to zoom or lighting. Other than that, we believe that our message was clear and we full heartedly believe in our video and the hard work we put in to it. If this project has taught me anything it’s that always keep persevering even if something seems impossible… never give up. The end result is always worth it.
