Final Reflection


    Wow. I can't believe this journey has come to an end. While working on this project I learned a lot. I learned about the process it takes to create a film opening, and honestly it’s a lot of work. I learned about developing storyboards, screenplays, shot lists and all the trial and error. I learned that not everything comes out the way you want it the first time. I had to reshoot the male parts as I didn’t like the way it came out the first time. I learned that editing it honestly is a hard skill to master. Especially audio. Lining everything up is really hard and I wish my idea was a little easier to edit. I’m not a strong editor so doing such an audio editing heavy film opening wasn’t the best idea. If I did this project again I would get a head start on filming and do less planning and research. I kind of waited til the last minute to get all the filming and editing done which resulted in a lot of stress for me. For next time, I could improve on my editing skills and would come up with a better idea. My film is pretty basic and uses a lot of the same shots as that’s what fits the genre. I could’ve challenged myself a little more in that area. Thank you guys so much for following my journey and I hope you enjoyed my final product. Bye!

Creative Critical Reflection

 HIII! I'm so happy to share my two final CCR's!! I think my 2 ideas of a Hot Mess podcast and an AICE themed Game Show are original and fun. I'm happy with the way they turned out and I hope you guys like them too! I worked really hard on them. 

Here's the Hot Mess Podcast ;)



Here's the AICE inspired Game Show :)

Film Opening!

 Heyyy! I finally finished everything for the film opening and wanted to share it here. This took a lot of planning and hard work so I really hope you guys like it! This definitely wasn't an easy road but i've made the journey. 

Here it is:



Process Update

     Hiii! So now that we're back from break I have locked in on the project. Yesterday I re-filmed the male parts with Drew, who was originally suppose to be in the film. I decided I hated the way it looked with Mason in it and Drew was also able to give me a few tips. 


We filmed in the same location that Lucy and Lily were in so it looks clean and like it was all filmed on the same day.





I started editing last night. It is going good the only thing I have left to add is the credits. I have to pick out a font and figure out exactly what I have to include. I can get that done quick tho. It's all due tomorrow so i've been buckling down. This due date really snuck up on me...

The CCR is also due tomorrow. I wrote out the script for what I will be doing. I plan on filming the Hot Mess Inspired podcast video today when I get home from school. It'll match the vibe i'm going for as my room is a mess and i'll be a mess after school. The other video I will be doing is a game-show type video. After practice today I plan on having my dad be the host and my sister and I be the participants. 

I plan on editing all day tomorrow. I may stay home from school to get it all done. I really have to lock in and staying home would allow me to focus on that. Other than that I just have to do a reflection and i'm done.

I'm going to have my CCR script peer reviewed but here is what I have so far :)
