You probably don’t think it’s THAT important to credit other people for their work do you?
Or maybe you know it’s important, but you still don’t give credit to other people because you think no one will ever find out you stole.
No you didn’t steal their pen or their notebook.
Oh no, it’s much worse.
You stole their work.
And it doesn’t matter that you stole…until that person finds out. Dun dun dun.
Here is a dramatic reenactment (it probably happened somewhere sometime throughout history and then they probably never spoke again because humans are petty like that) of a friendship falling apart due to one friend’s ignorance to the importance of giving credit;
A friendship ended over something petty.
Welp, nothing new, sounds like humanity alright. 🤧🤧🤧✊✊✊
Just because you’re friends doesn’t mean you can steal things.
Video tips: When making this video, I found that it’s much easier to plan out your videos before you make them because then you can visually see all that you have to do, which makes organising your time easier. Here’s our “storyboard” that I roughly drew up before we filmed the video:
Cred-ez: Also, something new that I learned is that when choosing what videos and background music to use, you can type in “no copyright” or sometimes, certain creators put in the description that it’s free to use as long as you give them credit. They don’t even give a specific way that people have to give credit, it’s just as long as you recognise the creator of the original song/video. This makes giving credit much simpler, which I think is cool because I think it pushes people to be more compelled to actually credit others. People are usually deterred by the different formats (APA, MLA…) that they just don’t want to give credit, but with something as simple as saying “Credit to blah blah blah”, I think it will push more people to credit.
Overcoming Audio Problems: The actual editing of the video went a lot smoother than I expected, because since we had already planned everything out, the only thing left to do was to put all the clips together and voice over. Adjusting the volume of the video gave us some trouble because it sounded kind of fake (love ahahaha, get it?; A/N: that’s the title of the background music) due to the sudden change from muffled (original) to clear (voiced-over) audio. However, in the end, I think it was incorporated well into the video because it makes the viewers feel as though they’re part of the conversation.
