Ideas and Inspiration

For this project I decided to create a styling video because my topic is about me for this class but this is my major and my hobby. I decided to start by brainstorming ideas of videos I could create that involves fashion. Some of my other ideas were go shopping with me and video about the best places to shop according to your budget and style or a how to find your style video. I decided these videos were not what I was aiming for and I finally decided on how I style outfits video. My inspiration for this project was  a youtuber Koolen Diaz. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd5UcZg0E7x0fyHJP9Iu1tg 

She does a lot of informative youtube videos about how dress certain things. 

Design Process

I was inspired by Koolen design principles as far as going back and forth from video and pictures for contrast. I was also inspired by fashion trends that are happening right now. For my research I used social media apps like Instagram and also the vogue app to see what trends were going to be hot next year so my video can have more relevance because we are going to be transitioning into the next season soon. I also tried to style my outfits for the colder weather for this reason also. I feel like these elements were very significant to my design because the video was about fashion so it is very important I did my research. The beginning of my design process started with me researching other fashion videos to see what I actually enjoyed watching. Next I picked my outfits out and recorded myself in the outfits and how I put them together. Next I uploaded and decided how I wanted to place the videos and outfits and where. 

Technical Detail

The videos and pictures I used were collected on the same day with my Canon camera and Iphone camera. I used most of the tools on Premiere but the most used for me were the razor tool and the tool used to turn videos. When I imported my videos a lot of them were upside down so I googled this and found a solution. These were my challenges with this project, turning my videos and cutting the time down to be exact.
