Goal of the Project

For this project, students in the GMD 311 course at DeVry University were tasked with creating a short video to develop our skills using Adobe Premiere Pro video production software. We needed to take short video clips along with still images and background music to assemble a professionally produced video highlighting an area event or specific portion of town, mimicking the type of video commonly produced for local bureau of tourism agencies.

Solution to the Problem

For this week, we were tasked with creating a short video highlighting an event or area in our home town. I recorded the video shown on my iPhone and used royalty free music from Purple-Planet.com. This 3 minute video spot can be seen on my YouTube Channel under A Tour of Uptown Normal at: https://youtu.be/mdXy5Ety6vo

Feedback From Others

"Good work, Thomas. The pacing and duration match the music well, and your footage is clear and consistent quality. Keep up the good work."
