Making a movie isn’t as easy as I thought it would be. As a newcomer to both interviewing and iMovie, I have a lot to learn before I finish this movie. My plan for my movie is to play two clips of electronic dance music, one made by a woman, one by a man. I will then proceed to ask each of my three interviewees if they can describe who made the music. If they cannot decipher which gender made which song, why is there such a discrepancy in the industry?
The way I want to organize my video is to ask basically the same questions to all interviewees. I will then cut and paste each clip so that each question goes together. This will make my video go Participant 1, 2, 3. 1, 2, 3, an so on. This will eliminate me having to repeat questions and boring my viewers. Also, it will show similarities and differences among participants’ answers.
So far, the hardest part has been trying to get the music clips in the video. I can’t figure out how to get a YouTube clip into iMovie. When I try to record the clip, the audio has terrible quality. Since it is the opener of my movie, I want it to sound perfect.
Another part that has proven difficult is unexpected answers from interviewees. I tried to only do 1 take with each person so that their answers are as genuine and original as possible. With this being said, I never have any clue what their about to say. It could support my statement, or completely go against my argument. This would make my video a little confusing, which I want to avoid.
Overall, I want my video to be the best possibly quality and easy to understand. This requires time, effort and skill. It’s hard to balance these three when I am new to iMovie.
