Commented [JT20]: Abriana: I know you said during the
peer workshopping class that you didnt film the video. Did you direct it, or is it a clip from an actual documentary? I am curious because if the video was a clip that you found it might be beneficial for you to add some extra text slides, voice overs, etc just to give the video your own spin. Commented [JT21]: Gemma: I would think about using some of your own footage for this assignment. It will give the trailer a more personal feel. This will also make your trailer more relatable to the viewer. Commented [JT22]: Madison: The footage you used for this video worked very well. One thing that may help is introducing the people and how they fit into your topic. We have their name and jobs but not really how it relates to your topic, I would identify the topic a little more clearly.
Using Instagram in your Senior Marketing

Music Used:
Simple from iMovie music library
Commented [JT23]: Madison: I like how your video has a
professional feel to it. It flowed very nicely and enjoyable to watch. The music also made a nice touch to it. Commented [JT24]: Cassidy: I liked how you used music to make the video more appealing. I like how you faded the music in and out in order to let the viewers hear what the actors were saying.I think that was a really cool aspect to the video, and I think it made it better than if you would have just did music over the whole video. Commented [JT25]: Gemma: The music that you chose fit very well with the content of your trailer. I liked how the music helped give it a positive and fun feel. That is really important because instagram is supposed to be a fun app and your trailer really portrayed that.
