 * CONVERSATION CHOICE:

Allen's speech from The Hangover can't embed it: [|ALLEN'S SPEECH]

**[|**Alan Garner**]**: Hello. How 'bout that ride in? I guess that's why they call it Sin City. [**//**awkward laughter**//**]** [|**Alan Garner**]**:** You guys might not know this, but I consider myself a bit of a loner. I tend to think of myself as a one-man wolf pack. But when my sister brought Doug home, I knew he was one of my own. And my wolf pack... it grew by one. So there... there were two of us in the wolf pack... I was alone first in the pack, and then Doug joined in later. And six months ago, when Doug introduced me to you guys, I thought, "Wait a second, could it be?" And now I know for sure, I just added two more guys to my wolf pack. Four of us wolves, running around the desert together, in Las Vegas, looking for strippers and cocaine. So tonight, I make a toast!


 * SKETCHES:

I tried working with the keywords to decide if there were enough opportunities to really animate the words ** Every section of his speech allowed for some playful typography.

Once jumping into after effects, I realized I wasn't very good at handling shapes, so decided to work with expressive type, rather than incorporate a lot of literal and symbolic imagery

I am **after effects challenged.**
 * ATTEMPT ONE:**

above: first try... just a bit. i put in 30 seconds though.... not a lot of 'animated' text yet... it will pick up as the video progresses.. just like a book! I don't want to have one continuous level of intensity all the way through. I would rather lead the viewer in slowly... and then introduce them to some excitement.. and lead them out.

I want a **v****ignette background** for it though.. not sure how to do that. adds depth.. which I love... makes the video seem less 'powerpoint', in my opinion.


 * FURTHER WORK:**

Figured out the **camera** and **lighting.** changed my world.

The lighting allowed me to get the depth I wanted for my video... adding that vignette effect I was looking for that is evident in the videos I researched.

I am having issues uploading to youtube... keeps closing my safari. DISLIKE.

I will add my other process videos if I can later... But they are not very important as it is just my final at different stages... I did not change the overall idea after I got going with this one...

The **background colour is the only thing that changed** from when I started the final to finishing it.

I managed to incorporate **some imagery** with a cute typeface from dafont.com that looks like little 'wolves'.

luckily this l**ow quality** version of my **final** worked fineee =FINAL := media type="youtube" key="R6pIdF4Uwe4" height="344" width="425" FINAL! crummy quality so you cannot really see the details as well as the .mov file.
