Peer Review

 Hi everyone! I finally finished editing my movie. I am thrilled with how it came out. I am in love with the title designs. It was kind of difficult to download the footage. That process alone took me half an hour. Then having to upload the media into cap cut to edit was also extremely annoying. I had to do each clip one by one. After came the cutting. I had to snip and edit each of the clips to get the video down to two minutes. Sean sent me the song selection we had gone with. It was called 'Logical Song' by the Supertramps. It was a pop song from the '80s. I was surprised by how well the song fits our film. I used a YouTube to MP3 converter to download the audio file. I added it to the track. Lastly came the title designs. I found a template and played around with the settings until it was just right.  Just to make sure everything came out well I needed it to be reviewed by one of my peers. And who better to do it than my best friend Marvin. His Notes: - Overall, it was

Time to edit

 Hi everyone! We finally re-filmed everything. It was a huge job to fill, but my team got it done. Words cannot describe how proud I am of us. This project we really worked hard to get all the work done. Now it's time to edit the footage. I was sent all the footage last night. So my plan for this week is to edit, cut, and paste together all the pieces. As well as put the audio together. I edited the very first project we did. So I have some experience in doing this. However, I need to make sure that this is top notch. I have never edited a movie before, or any longer films. The closest I've edited to that is my YouTube videos. And those were just for fun. Not the deciding factor of passing my class. I am extremely nervous about it. But I hope that this all comes out the way it needs too. My friends will help me out. Until next time!

Redoing it again

 Hi everyone! I am finally back. Unfortunately, we have made a mistake. There was a shot that we did not film so we have rescheduled for another film date. Yayyyy... kind of. I really thought we were ready to edit. But after starting to edit and review the footage we realized we had forgotten it. So tomorrow the team is supposed to film after school. I will not be in attendance because I do not have a way to get back home after. However, I will be editing as soon as they send over the footage. I really hope that we get it right this time. We have had a lot of setbacks and it is stressing me out. It's just good news that the plans are made. Everything should be set. Now we just need to execute our ideas and plans. And hopefully, everything turns out the way it is supposed too. If it doesn't I am going to be so upset. I will check back in as soon as the editing process has offically started. Which has to be soon. Until next time! 

Finally Filmed

     We finally did it. Although I was not able to make it to the film let me tell you about the journey we have to get to this moment. It was not easy, but we overcame every obstacle that stood in our way and emerged victorious in the end. We had been preparing for this project for weeks, and our team had put a lot of effort and time into the planning and execution. However, things didn't quite go according to plan, and we faced numerous challenges along the way. But we didn't give up. We persevered and found creative solutions to every problem that came our way. The first hurdle we encountered was finding the perfect location to shoot. We searched high and low for a place that would fit the theme of our project, but nothing seemed to work. However, we didn't let this dampen our spirits, and after much brainstorming and research, we finally found a location that was perfect. We scoured the internet for affordable options within our budget. As we started filming, we encount
