copyright video
So, working on the copyright video reminded me of how much I dislike time constraints when working on things such as videos. I hate having an idea that has to be cut down to fit. This time wasn't as bad as previous assignments I've had in video classes. The worst was probably a short film I had to make. The original script I had written for myself years ago was about 20 pages long. The video could only be up to eight minutes. So of course, I had to simplify and settle for a sub par short film that really didn't touch base on very much of anything that I had originally written. Technology wise, I didn't know if it was okay to use other tech so I stuck with the animoto. If I could've I would've used something else like FinalCut. Animoto is great but I think that they shouldn't count their animated logo as part of your 30 seconds. It takes up about 3 minutes of your video time which I think is a bit unfair.

I agree with time restraints being difficult to work with. While I was doing my video, I also had to cut out many aspects that I wanted to show and that I thought were important to the message of the video. That was a good observation, about the "animoto" logo taking up 3 seconds of video time. Those seconds could have come in handy. Good job on your video. Even with the time restraints, it came out great.
