Redo day

 Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today was a day that set production behind very far as we had found out very and news. While filming the first time I was accidently wearing a shirt for our school football team and it had our logo on it. Due to this mistake we had to make a decision, refilm all of the scenes that I am apart of or re edit every scene I am apart of and block out the logo. First we decided to try and do the re editing option. This would be easier and more time efficient as we wanted to have been done with the movie and not been planning to have had this interruption. Using our editing software, cap cut, we tried to figure out how to solve out problem and blur out my shirt. But after trying to we could not make the censorship box follow the logo on my shirt. So, we decided that that after noon we would refilm. Even though I had pans for that afternoon I decided to cancel them in order to complete the production. Nathaniel on the other hand did not cancel his plans and i

Changes made because of peer review

Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today my groupmates and I will be editing our blog based off of the peer review we received. Today was a bit of a challenge to meet up with each other. Today was a track meet for myself, meaning that we had to meet up at night considering the track meet was in the afternoon. Alex Nordyke was stuck doing homework at this time and was too behind on his work. As a result he suggested that we reschedule this event to another day so we could all focus and not inconvenience each other by showing up so late at night. But because Nathaniel was busy over the weekend with family events, he made us do it that night. I eventually agreed with him because if we did not do it this weekend, then we would have been behind schedule. As a result of this we decided the meet up time would be 8:00 PM at my house. Luckily it was still day light out so it fit in with the rest of the previous scenes, time period wise. Now that we had the schedule completed, we decided to come

peer review

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. Today is our blog about peer editing. This blog is the feedback of a total stranger to us about our movie and what they think of it. Initially we were going to give this job of peer editing to someone we knew because we figured they would give their honest opinion, but we realized it could lead to biased because they have a personal relationship with us. So, instead of doing that we decided to give it to a complete stranger in our class and see what they thought. We wanted to see if they thought the plot was good and what they thought of our acting and song choice, so we could go back and make changes to anything. We made sure not to tell them anything about the movie before showing it to them. We did this to endure that they would have no prior knowledge to it, and it would insure an honest opinion about our movie. We decided to show it to one of our classmates that we didn't know, and he started off by saying it was good. He Started by

Final editing session

Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today was the day we finished the editing completely of our movie. We started where we left where we left off last time and picked up on editing at the montage scene of us looking for things to do by search random and unreasonable places for something fun to do. We started by compiling of the clips we had acquired into the same clip. We changed the amount of time for each clip, so it would not take up much time in the video. After having these clips all together and cut down properly we decided to add the elevator music that we had decided to use in the previous blog. After doing this and inserting the clips into the movie, we decided it looked good. Proceeding this we decided to go back into our title screen and edit that by adding in the music that Nathanil had picked out in our last blog. The music we were adding was a light and mellow beat that we had decided as a group on after Nathaniel suggested it. The only issue that we ran into after trying

Music day

 Hello and welcome back to my blog. Today was the day whereas a group, we would discuss the music that we would use for our movie. The first collective idea we had as a group was to get the main focus of the music to relate to the comedic sense that we were trying to communicate. The first idea we which Alex N suggested was "Bubbly" by Young Thug. After listening to the song, though the beat was good, we decided that there was too much in appropriate languages in the song. We wanted the song to have a fun and comedic, without being inappropriate for the audience. Nathaniel then suggested an upbeat rock and roll song to be our montage music and have a chilled out beat that he found online be our title screen music. First, we listened to the rock and roll song, "Thunderstruck" by ACDC. Upon listening to this song, we did not think that this fully fit the comedic and fun sense that we were trying to communicate. So, we decided to not us that song, but when listening to
