Snow Effect!

My video assignment is going to be 1:30 to 2 minutes and it's going to be a shot of snow followed by people shoveling the snow. The video is going to a bit of an experiment, showing how a few people shovel the driveways. Included in the video will be the sound of me taking over the footage, briefly explaining what's going on, but the primary bulk of the video will not having any talking in it, instead it will just be the footage of the person doing their thing. Most of the sound in the video will simply be natural (such as the sound of snow being picked up etc…), but the occasion sound affect added in to make a difference. The primary purpose of the video, aside from being for the project in the class (multimedia), is also to show a simple shot of someone shoveling the driveway, in a way the video almost shows the frustration of what it means to shovel the driveway, and in another way it simply shows someone doing their job, as we see the person (in this case my own mother), diligently cleaning up some of the snow on the ground near her house, as well next to her own car. I am very fortunate with this project, as it has managed to snow at home in Norwich Vermont. In fact it snowed in the city for about two days nonstop, to the point where one could assume that anyone could be snowed-in their own house. This makes the project much easier and possible to do, even if my own video skills are only average at this point and shooting outside without sunlight makes the screen look very fog-like, the second of which is a major downside related to the project. Snow is a simple weather pattern. Not everyone films footage of snow, or especially of people picking up snow, but my video is clearly not unique, it is however a bit of a test run with the camera, and also one of my major assignments in the class (Multimedia Studies). Hopefully things don't go completely wrong in regards to this assignment.
