In this project, I made a video essay on the book “Beige”. The process of the project was to first write the essay. The thesis of the essay was “how do the characters in beige cause Katy to accept her real self and express her feelings”. The second step was record my voice when reading my essay. The final step was put my audio, picture, and quotes inside the video.

What I learned from this project was sometimes we would encounter some special circumstances when we are working our projects. I have made few videos before. I thought I know all the steps and felt very confident about it. However, after I finished the video, when I was going to export my it, i couldn’t make the file into the right size. it was too big and would take too long to export. At first I was very anxious because the project was due tomorrow. Fortunately, I found a way to do it by share it to another device. 

The thing I could have done better was to make the video more enjoyable. I should add more pictures, quotes, and put some important words into subtitles.
