Multimedia Poetry

Design

• 2 Storyboards with all elements listed.
Text: A poem that I have written myself.
Font: Algerian
Size: 36 or lower, depending on the how much is written on the screen
Color: Depends on the background at the time, but will most likely be white most of the time.
Background: Will be of different pictures of my choosing that I will get from the internet. They will be a different color from the font and be
Audio: A song that will fit the mood. Will be more than one. Will not have any lyrics so it doesn’t pull the focus: the video will fade in and fade out. In between will either be fades, dissolves or shatter.
Spec Effects:
Credits:
• “Self Produced” Elements
Plan

I will search pictures on the internet, mostly from Google images and deviant art. It is very important that the images fit well with each line of the poem.
After that, I will choose a song without lyrics that fits well with the sad, ominous mood that I am creating.
After all the products I need are gathered, I will put everything together in movie maker.
I will overlap the words from my poem onto each picture, line by line. However I will make sure that the viewers have enough time to read each one.
All the while, the music will be playing in the back ground.

Evaluation

Thankfully, I was able to finish my trailer with time to spare before the presentation. I made the video on my laptop at my home instead of school, as all that I needed was saved into it.
The majority of the video was exactly the way I planned it to be. The text was readable and there was enough time for the viewers to read each sentence. The difference was only the font and size of the text as I needed to make sure everything was readable. Also, the color were either white (if the background was colorful) or red (if the background was black and white).
The images and music also helped greatly in creating the emotion I was going for. Thankfully, neither of these elements took too much attention from the words that I wanted my watchers to read and think about.
The only problem I had was that I noticed a typo in the first slide when it was too late. Instead of saying ‘they’, it read ‘the’. However, it doesn’t appear as if any of the audience members noticed the mistake.
On the 3rd of June, my video was projected onto a screen for a group of students, teachers and parents to see. Thankfully, the music did not skip like I feared it would, as it did that often while I was making it. Also, I was told after my video was shown, that the audience was as enthralled into watching it as I was, which means to me, that I have achieved what I was aiming for

Multimedia Poetry

Multimedia is a simple way of showing poetry. It is well known and used worldwide as anyone can do it. All that you need to do is write your own poem, type it into a video, add music and them imagery. Simple yes, but it doesn't mean that will create a good video.

of cours the quality and format of a poem is always up to the writer. only the writer can decide what does and does not go into a poem. However, the choice for the picture and music cannot be so widespread.

as the viewers will be readng through out the video, thier mind will be fixed on the text and the text alone. for that reason, when choosing a song, it is best to pick one without lyrics. this will allow the audience to focus on the words you worked so hard on, while still having music that sets the required mood.

After the poem, the graphics behind the text is the most important. as most people write their text in white (so it stands out better) so it only stands to reason that what lays behind the words should not be the colour white. This goes for every other colour of text you choose.

As well as the colour of the picture, make sure there are no words already on it. This will create unwanted confusion for the viewers and may even ruin the poem you worked hard on.

If you follow these simple steps, you should end up with a piece of art.

Falling From Grace

They watched as she tumbled
Through the cold night air.
Their unbroken silence whispered,
‘I don’t care’.
She fell once, twice,
Three times more.
The will to get up,
Was the biggest chore.

She wanted to stop,
To lie on the dead earth.
Never to see the Sun’s
great, Miraculous birth.
Why she went on,
She will never know.
But something in her dying heart,
urged her to go.

She believed his lies and
Exquisite mask.
In breaking her, it met its
sole task,
But she will remember
from begging to end
That once upon a time,
he was her dear friend.

With liquid glass lining her closed eyes
She leaped over the edge

And welcomed the skies

TROYA!
