Motivational Video Propsal

Motivation is something that we all seek in order to give us the mentality to do something, or to accomplish our goals. In order to assist people in finding the motivation to complete tasks and reach their goals I will be taking footage and audio from athletes, scholars, and other individuals that many esteem to be like. I will obtain my footage from places like the following:
-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScQ-ad9gR9M
-http://www.learnoutloud.com/content/blog/archives/2009/01/to_give_you_a_b.php

I would like to alter the footage in such a way so that the viewer feels empowered and confident after watching the finished product. I will arrange the footage and audio, so that there is some interplay between the speeches. In this I mean that the content of the speeches may run together in order to make them seem seamless and almost like it is one speech that is being read by many individuals. This audio will overlay footage of some great accomplishments that have been achieved over the course of time.

The reaction that I am looking to evoke from my audience is a sense of hopefulness and accomplishment. I’m hoping that every individual that views this remix will see it as an opportunity to better themselves and succeed in every facet of there lives.

In terms of video editing techniques I plan to use various transitions and filter on the footage in order to engage the viewer in an exciting and emotional manner. At the same time I plan to use audio as a very significant source of empowerment to compliment the theme of the overall production. I’ve have employed these techniques in my previous work in video editing and see no obstacle in path aside from learning the overall interface of Adobe Premier Pro in a Macintosh Operating System. I look forward to empowering individuals with my production.

    Wow, what a wonderful and thoughtful video project proposal! The videos you’ve chosen are very beautiful and full of joy. My only concern is that I’m not sure how exactly you’ve remixed the media enough to invoke a different meaning. My suggestion is to use the opposite of motivational videos, like maybe ones where the audio is negative, and just use the audio. You could cut it up so that it says a positive message instead. Then you can overlay it on top of the videos you mentioned and it will have a whole new meaning. Just a suggestion though (: Best of luck on your project!

    This sounds like it could be pretty interesting. I like the idea of using a wide array of people rather than just athletes. Cant wait to see it, good luck.
