Finishing touches

Hey blog!!! I'm here to tell you some great news. I finished my commercial. Well, almost done. I just have to add a few final touches, and it will be ready to launch. I'm incredibly proud of the hard work and creativity that went into this project. It's been a long journey. I hope this edit will truly show who I was and who I have become. From picking the music to picking the picture to editing the video, the commercial has been a lot of hard work and hours. One detailed example of the hard work and creativity put into the commercial is selecting the perfect music. After careful consideration of various genres and styles, I opted for a song by a well-known artist. SZA has received multiple honors, including a Grammy, an American Music Award, a Guild of Music Supervisors Award, two Billboard Women in Music Awards, and numerous nominations. Additionally, during the editing process, I synchronized each scene transition to fit with the rhythm of the music, creating a smooth and

  Hello guys!! So last night, around 7:30, I started putting my commercial together. It's been a while since I've made a video on CapCut. The last time I made a video was last year, in June. The video I made was for my oldest brother's graduation party. It was composed of seven different songs and a multitude of pictures. I spent hours carefully selecting the songs that would perfectly capture the essence of my brother's journey through school, from his first day of kindergarten to his graduation day. Each picture was meticulously arranged to create a seamless and emotional storyline, leaving no one's eyes dry in the room when it was played at the party. Since then, I've taken a break from making edits for awhile, but it feels great to be back into editing. I can't wait to see how this video turns out, especially since I've learned some new techniques since my last CapCut video. It's exciting to apply my newfound skills and creativity to make this vi

Photo Review

  Hi blog!! Today I’m picking my photo choice. This would be easy if I didn’t have over 1,000 photos of myself or family. Most photos will come from my favorite album. The album is full of pictures and videos of the funny things my family have done over the years. There’s one picture of my mom and I in a gym taking pictures for my last first game. This picture is from 2018 back when I cheered for a little league team, Pompano Beach Cowboys. It was a sweet and silly picture. Another picture I have is one of me and some of my siblings when we were younger. We were all gather around each other and made funny faces. It’s a simple picture that means a lot to me especially since I barely get to see my older brother that’s in the picture. This last picture I’m going to describe is a picture with my father and 3rd younger sister. It’s a photo from 2019. It was a photo at my youngest sister baby shower. I rarely get to see my dad side of my family so when I get pictures or videos with them, I’m

Music Review

Hi everyone! I’m back to tell you about my final music choice. Since my last blog I’ve added another music choice. The other music choice is now a song by Olivia Rodrigo. So I wanted to evaluate the songs with you guys. The choices are now Bruno Mars, SZA, Olivia Rodrigo. It’s hard for me to choose from these 3 artists because they are a part of my top 5 favorite. Bruno Mars has been my favorite artist since I was around 7 years old.The first song I heard by Bruno was “Treasure”. Ever since then I’ve fell in love with Bruno Mars songs. The song by Bruno Mars that I would choose would be “Treasure” because the reason previously mentioned. SZA is a recent artist I’ve recently started to listen to. My younger sister listens to her all the time. At first I thought her music was annoying and overrated because everyone listens to her. But one day my sister and I was in my mom’s car waiting on her to come out a store and my little sister started playing SZA on the radio. The song she played w

 Good morning. I wasn’t sure how to write my blog at first but now I understand. After a lengthy debate in my head over which video editing app I should use. I’ve decided to use cap cut instead of iMovie. CapCut is easier to use for me when it comes to editing the photos together. Another reason I prefer CapCut over iMovie is because I’ve been using cap cut for 2 years and have made 7 edits on it. My only problem with using CapCut is it sometimes can glitch and mess up the video or sound. It doesn’t happen much as it used to when I first started. My music choice is still undecided but I do know what artists I want to use. The artist want to use is either Bruno Mars or SZA. I’m unsure what song to use by Bruno Mars. He has a lot of good songs and that’s why my decision is hard. If I can’t choose which Bruno mars song then I will do my back up song by SZA, Open arms. In my next blog I will have my actual music choice I will be using. As I scrolled through my camera roll I decided to put

Hiii my name is Tiyana Smith and I will be giving you an inside look into my life. I am in 10th grade student at Fort Lauderdale high school. my high school experience has been fun, and I think I’ll be sad when it’s over. I am a Jamaican American with a very big family.I am a family-oriented person even though we don’t always see eye to eye on some subjects.I was born in November towards the end, so I am a November sagittarius. I will be turning 16 this year and I’m very excited because I’m having a very big, sweet 16. I have always been into astrology ever since I was young.I feel like astrology helps me understand people in the way they act sometimes. I am a mixture between a tomboy and a girly girl.I say this because the way I dress is very girly, but my personality is very boyish. My favorite thing to do is sleeping, listening to music, or practicing my dance routines. I am currently a part of the flag line at Fort Lauderdale high school. I love the girls that are a part of the fla
