 * Tue . Feb . 9 : **Some process. Figuring out colour schemes and typefaces at this point.






 * Sat . Feb . 6:** A rough cut to just get an idea. One thing I really dislike with after effects, and find makes the whole process more difficult, is how you can't scroll through the sound file as you scroll through the time line, and instead the only way to hear sound is to actually play render. You can do it in Final Cut Pro, why not after effects?! UGH.

 * note: the other video didn't get saved onto my USB.


 * Fri . Feb . 5:** Experimenting with After Effects, working with timing, camera angles, movement, etc. After reading the hand out for this exercise, and its emphasis on intonation and conversation between two people, I'm starting to wonder if the scene from 21 grams is the best choice for this exercise. I looked at a few examples that I figured would be better examples to work experiment with.

Seinfeld was one of the first to come to mind, with any conversations with Kramer, all as good examples with a variety and changes in voice.

 * Wed . Feb . 3:** I decided to change my conservation to something more serious. I decided to work on the narrative for the final scene of 21 grams.

Here are some storyboard ideas that i drew up.





The voice lacks the ups and downs of the previous conversations, dunno if this will work out better or worse because of it.


 * Thu . Jan . 28:** Decided on this conversation. Dunno if i'm going to include the whole thing or not.

I decided to go with this conversation not only for the wide range of emotion and ups and downs within Kramer's rants, but also there is a strong contrast between Kramer's stronger, jolty and much more involved and excited voice and Jerry and George's more monotone and uninterested voices which almost disappear into the background.

The colour scheme goes for a more lighter and happier approach, as this is a light conversation, with Kramer's voice beeming out the most. ||
