The Project Begins




The “Found” Project


Drawing inspiration from Pete Vandenberg and Mindy Bowden’s video “Who is a Writer” and FoundMagizine.com, I created The “Found” Project. The project is based on the premise that we are all writers and that one of the inhibitors for people seeing themselves as writers is the lack of a space in which to present their writing. Using a portion of the bulletin boards on each floor in the Hall of Languages, I provided a space for writers to display their work. I kept a photo journal documenting the success of the project and used the photos to create a video and blog. I have turned the footage into a short video looking at who and what is being written about when a space is provided.

The Trailer

Here is the Trailer that I made for the final project. I am really happy with the way that this video turned out. I was able to use two different audio clips by saving each section as a different video and them importing them into movie maker separately.

The Final Cut x 2

At some point, I decided to make a trailer for my final project and then with a little persuasion from one of my class mates, I fused the trailer and the final video. This is The Final Cut x 2. I made use of mutliple audio tracks in this film by placing seprate completed videos into a movie maker project. Post Script: this movie was muted from youtube for having audio from a Warnwer Bros. artist. I think it is within educatinal "Fair Use" criteria, but I can still post it here.
