Music Studio Recording (Replacement)

After the recording of the recording studio, we now shooting the rehearsal video of a certain band to show how the band rehearsal looks like. We decided to take a video first, then only transfer into image sequence form by using Adobe After Effect.

Here are some pictures of we recording the video.

After Semester Break... (Replacement)

After the semester break, we show up our prototype to each other. However, we still couldn't find a way to increase and decrease the volume for the sound mixer. We work on it and at the same time, we start recording and taking pictures of the studio and interview.

Actually the interview suppose to be held right after the semester break, but the vocalist of the band is going for a holiday. So we will have to wait. At the mean time, we go and take a panorama view of the recording studio which we will be using in the magazine.

Here are some behind the scenes and photos of the recording studio.

Helping with Sound Mixer Coding (Replacement)

After done my prototype, I help Jared for the sound mixing part as we think that this will be the part where it will give us a lot of problem. So, I have found some tutorial in Youtube about playing audio in Edge Animate.

Click HERE for the video.

And I try it out in Edge Animate with the coding.

And surprisingly, it works perfectly well in the browser.

Found an Easier Way for Production Part (Replacement)

Before trying out in Edge Animate, I try to find a few more options for this production part as I really don't like coding stuff. And luckily, I've found one super easy solution which I can done it in InDesign itself. All thanks to this youtube tutorial. Click HERE for the tutorial.

It is very simple, I have to find a sequence of images which I think is almost similar with stop motion.

1) Create a new box in InDesign.

2) Then it go to Folio Overlays which they automatic have some option for us to choose which one we want. Then just click on the option Image Sequence. Then go to small blue folder there, and import the first picture of the stop motion pictures.

3) Then, it's done!

During Semester Break... (Replacement)

During the semester break, I have to do a prototype for the Production part, which is the rehearsal part of the band in the form of when the reader slide the video or images, then the video will play it according to the speed of reader slide. It is something like time-lapse video but it's scrollable.

However I go online and search for how to make a time lapse video scrollable in edge, but it seems that there's no way to find out. But from the Google search, it does come out some few options.

One of it was I found it in Adobe Communities, someone ask the same question as me.

Some people indeed provide one solution for it.

When I click on it, it come out with this solution with somebody's blog.

Then I download the source file that she provided, and try it out in Edge Animate.

Interview Questions (Replacement)

Before going to semester, we have come out some interview questions for the pre-production part where we have to interview an artists.

So here are the interview questions:

INTRODUCTION
1. Could you tell us a little bit about Kluk Kluk Adventure – the band’s background ? [ how, when, why ]
2. Who are your major influences ?
3. What is your role in the band? How about the other band members? Have you had any changes of member or roles ? If yes, has it affect band’s music style from the beginning till now ?

Before Semester Break (replacement)

Before the semester break, we decided that all of us come out with our prototype for the magazine. Actually during this semester break, we are planning to have an interview with an artist regarding our magazine, but there's two of us will not be around, so we postpone the interview.

So here are the list of group member with their own respective prototype:
Nathania: The first page and second page of BTS (Behind the Scene) about the panorama
Spencer: Pre-production Page
Adriana: Producion Page
Jared: Post Production Page.

In our own point of view, we think that the Post Production will the hardest part among the others, so we decided to help him out by finding our own ways to do it.
