My Visual Poem


ClarkM VisualPoem from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.


My visual poem is about me breaking free from all the things that hold me down. I can escape through many things. I can get away from things through art, music, shows, or anything that distracts me or changes my everyday life. It expresses how I am bored with reality and love to escape through my many passions. The visuals show how I see the world and how I really feel.

My effects, like the transitions and the color enhancing, affect my video by automatically making the video better by adding interest. I think using the transitions smooth out the video. I also think that the text layovers add a certain degree of clarification. You can also use affects to add depth and more meaning into your story.

Im pretty satisfied with my final result. I think I could've done better with my audio, it's a bit shaky and wind filled. I also could have gotten some more relevant B-Roll, but I did my best. I also feel like my background music was a little too upbeat for some parts, but for the rest I think it matches. Overall, I think my video is pretty well done and I'm happy with it.

  1. I like how your music in the background went well with your video.
    Maybe next time turn it down a little.
    Really good topic though!

  2. i liked how you included parts of a TV show in your B-role.
    It was kind of short and fast.
    I liked the poems rhyme scheme

  3. Nice B-roll that was relevant and relatable. Maybe next time you could've used your own film instead of stuff from a show. Awesome voice over that was clear and understandable.

  4. - Cool b-roll, didn't use the same shot twice :]
    - Maybe lower the music right when it jumps
    - Voiceover was easy to hear

  5. You had well filmed and applicable B-Roll. The audio was too loud in the beginning, maybe try turning it down a bit. You did a great job in your voice-over, there was a lot of passion throughout the whole thing.

  6. I like that you were able to get film from a TV show and put it on your Visual Poem, maybe turn down the audio volume and kinda keep your distance from the camera when speaking into it, but this poems' B-Roll was excellent

  7. I liked your B-Roll.
    Your audio was...special?
    Your poem was expressive and relatable, and I liked your special effects a lot.

  8. Good sequencing. Musics to over powering and the super natural part I think you should've shot that in a different way. Nice applicable b-roll.

  9. HAYLLO MAYA! I absolutely love your poem. All those rhyming and the fact you put Supernatural was simply amazing. The theme of it was also different from others considering it was all about escaping. One thing I suggest is to lower down that volume in the beginning. It was loud in the beginning and then, it just turned soft. I also liked your music choice as it changed the tone of your poem and made it more joyful! It wasn't too depressing and it wasn't all over the top. Great work Senpai!

  10. Hello, senpai, nice poem. One thing I like is how you had that Supernatural, it was awesome. One thing I suggest you do is lower your volume on what you say. And another thing I liked about your visual poem is how your music was not too loud.

  12. WELL, your poem had a lot of emotion
    Your music was pretty loud in the beginning
    I could clearly see that you put that emotion into your words

  13. haha I love that you used a clip from a movie never seen that that! But next time turn your audio down just a little. I love your b-roll... So amazing!!!

  14. The effects made the B-roll stand out. The voiceover had a lot of feedback. The B-roll really matched the voiceovers.

  15. 1.) I like how your last visual and line lingered in my mid.
    2.) During some of your lines, maybe your mouth was a little too close to the mic because you could hear what sounded like wind.
    3.) Your poem was really good, I liked how you read with emotion.

  16. I really liked how you added lots of different b-roll.
    The voiceover at the end seemed like it was recorded seperatly.
    I also liked how you added background music which made your poem more meaningful.

  17. I really liked all of your b-roll because it was interesting and you had different angles. I think that you could've lowered your audio levels, but I liked your video as a whole and how you read it with expression.

  18. Good job! I liked how you got clips outside of school also. Some shots were a little out of focus. Your use of effects was nice.

  19. I liked your visuals and it matched your poem. Your audio levels could have been fixed because their was static at the end. Your music matched your poem.

  20. Interesting topic. It would be good if you got that weird static stuff out. I like how the b-roll matched you're poem.

  21. Great job Maya! The B-Roll were quite excellent, especially with the roundabout of different type of it!
    Though, the audio could be adjusted in the beginning, it was a little bit loud. (Unless my ears are playing tricks on me)
    Your Poem was read quite clearly!
    Nice job Maya!

  22. I liked the visuals you used to express your poem. Your music and voiceover to go a bit louder at some points, you could even your audio levels out. Your voiceover was clear and understandable.

  23. Your b-roll was really cool! Maybe instead it could show a shot of you watching the video instead of just the video. Your voiceover was clear and understandable.
