Project #1 - The Loop Love Actually is my all-time favorite Christmas movie, and probably my all-time favorite rom-com. I watch it whenever I need a pick-me-up or a good ugly cry. For this project, I wanted to focus on some of the moments in this movie that make me the happiest, but there are a few sad moments sprinkled in, as well. Bill Nighy does an outstanding job portraying a burn-out rockstar that is holding onto the last bit of stardom that he has, all while his poor manager has to deal with all the ruckus he causes. Hugh Grant’s dance scenes were his last filmed scenes since he was dreading doing them, but how great are they?! The movie would’ve completely changed without them. This was my first time working in Photoshop and I enjoyed it! However, the only hiccup I had was figuring out how to speed up the videos, because they all seemed to slow down once I uploaded them. Interesting how something so simple like time can have such a big effect on a video that is only seconds long.
