First of all, when I notice that in this project, we were able to make an editing of videos, I was happy because I had some experiences in editing because I was in cinema in cegep. Then I started to think that it would be better to mix sound and fixed images to give me a challenge. So I took those three and make the editing between them. I had little difficulties to match the pictures with the videos because I didn't found videos that worked with my images so I decided to make two parts for the entire project witch is in the same video. For the part of the images, I wanted to create a weird atmosphere of discomfort with the music. Then, after this part, I wanted firstly make a kunfu editing witch would be doubled with kids talking. It could be funny, but I didn't found kids talking so I made a gradation of violance, starting with kids playing, then racism with kid figures and animation, then a figure of Jesus and it finished with truly fighting and violance. The music goes grading that way too.
I think that the creative commons is a pretty good way to share art work with others and tell the world that your work is not free of use. By making these licences you can choose how your work can be use by others and vice versa. By taking files from creative commons, we know now how to respect the licensing and take the work of other persons. I already heard of creative commons before this project and I find it very interesting. Creative commons is like a community and everybody can be linked by work of others. This is very good. Now my work is in the community too and can be remix for another project.
Now I will explain my contribution about the music. The files are from Internet Archive: http://www.archive.org I took two music from the same composer pseudo named dotCommunism. His audio is part of the collection: Evil Residence Records and it also belongs to collection: Music & Arts. He put those by the date of 2005-08-09 and the Creative Commons licenses are : Attribution-NonCommercial . So I edited those two music together to make one music and I put his name in the credits titles.
Therefore, I will explain my contribution about the videos. I took all the files from Internet Archive: http://www.archive.org . I took ten different videos that I edited together to make one and I put all their names in the credits titles.
