Choosing a comic strip :

For our first task we had to choose a comic strip we were going to use and edit to our own comic strip. Liam and I chose the Mary Worth comic strip as we thought it was funny and more entertaining. Our edit of Mary Worth was fairly long so in that aspect i would not change anything, although if i had the oppurtunity to do it again i would have had a voice over of the dialogue by me and Liam.

Camera :

In our edit of Mary Worth we had only one basic camera movement which was panning. This we used because some strips were too big for just a still shot so we had to pan across from one side to the other. Me and Liam did encouter a problem with the tripod and the camera at first, the camera didn't fasten on top of the tripod properly and was very shakey and it was hard to keep it from shaking whilst panning across.

Dialogue :

Mary Worth did have dialogue already with the comic strip. These were the lyrics to a blakc eyed peas song. Liam and I then decided to create our own dialogue by using the lyrics from a well known Tinie Tempah song "Frisky". I feel that this gives me and Liam more depth as we explored the task more.

Uploading to Youtube :

i found the uploading of my video to youtube reasonably easy as i already had a youtube account. It was a fairly quick process although first time round it had encounted an error whilst transfering it to youtube, but second time round it was fine.

Transfering it from youtube to my blog :

This was an easy process al we had to do was copy the embeded code form the youtube video and post it in the HTML box in the new post section this took no time at all and we had no problems what so ever.
