Summary

This individual assignment challenged my abilities as a media artist. Using the song Harvey the Wonder Hamster by Weird Al Yankovic as the base concept, I brainstormed, storyboarded, and edited until I was happy with the final outcome.

Process

This assignment began with brainstorming and storyboarding the rough concept. This concept was submitted for feedback, which I included in the final video. I had to book rooms, rent equiment/instruments, and edit the film. Once I had all my footage, I used Primiere Pro and Adobe After Effects to add a funky visualizer effect and key out the green screen.

Result

When it was finished, Harvey The Wonder Hamster was shown to the class and received a mark of 23/25.
