I based my title for the Capture the Fall project off a poem called "Fall, leaves, fall" by Emily Brontë. In my video, I had a few shots of a fire in my backyard. Fire embodies fall for me because I always build fires on camping trips and make s'mores. I also included shots from road trips this year. One of my favorite things to do is look out of the window and pick out my favorite trees during autumn. I also think that autumn can be a dreary time. It is when the weather turns cold and flowers die. That is why my music is slow. I think it embodies my overall autumn mood. The burning leaf at the end symbolizes the death of nature, and the brighter last shot through the rear-view mirror symbolizes new beginnings.
I shot the footage with my iPhone and my Nikon Coolpix S3000. I edited the clips on WeVideo, which I still do not like as much as Final Cut Pro. I used some effects on the videos, and I played with the color in some of the shots from my road trip.
