Production Blog: Cuts


 Hiiiii blog. Today is my birthday. I am so blessed to make it to another year of life. I am grateful for my family and good friends I have made along the years. I am out of town right now for my aunt, cousin, and my birthday. 

So, in the last couple blogs I talked about the process of the group and I filming. It was a fun process and I enjoyed working with Jahziah, Jaelis, and Aurum. The music video is not done yet though. Jahziah and I decided to split up the editing process to make it quicker and easier for our group. I decided to edit the first half and Jahziah the second. I edited the first half and sent it to her. Then, she put the first and second halves together. I went through the first clips and seen the parts that were going to make the cut. I enjoy the editing part because it makes me excited and anxious for the final music video. Most of the scenes were shot a couple times so, I had to make sure I picked the best one. It was such a fun experience. There was a lot of takes where we were all laughing which made shooting more comfortable. It was good to know that we had a couple bloopers we could look back on. I made sure all the clips in the beginning were not too long of time. Our music video had to not only show our creative side but, it had to be a short music video. I am so excited to see how it turns out. Cant wait. See you next time blog !!!

Re-film

Hello blog, how was your day? I am so tired. I just got off of work. I am somewhat excited for spring break. Today I will be speaking to you about how my group and I had to refilm one of the sciences for the final task.  In the peer review, Jahziah’s sister is the one that watched our final task and gave us comments on it. She said the lighting during the dance scene was bad. She said since it was too light, it didn’t give the feeling that the actors were at a party. After we noticed this mistake, we decided to plan another day to refilm this scene. Around 5 to 6 people made it to the refilming day.  The day we decided to refill most of the people canceled so we had to work with who was there. It was a little upsetting and stressful but we made it work. The main characters were able to attend, but we didn’t have extra people for the dancing scene.  when everyone got to Jahziah’s house, we decided to talk and plan how we were going to to refilm this scene to make it better...

First Day of Editing

 Hello blog, how has your day been? Did you have anything fun planned for the weekend? I have been fine. I worked so, I am really tired.  In today's blog I will be telling you how my first day of editing went. The group and I decided to do all the editing in class together so the work was equally distrusted. We all made sure to share any ideas we had during this process as well.  I wanted to make the editing process easy. So, the scenes were all shot on different days and the scenes would be edited separately as well. It makes things easier for everyone. I use Inshot to edit videos. It is easy and the features are easy to learn. This app has so many cool features to use. I really enjoy the audio effects Inshot has on the app.  The first scene was filmed in Jahziahs bedroom. This scene took a while to edit because Jahziah and I were being very particular about the scenes and how ultimately we wanted it to turn out. Jahziah and I did not end up finishing editing becaus...

Finally Finished!!

 Hello Blog, how did your day go? It’s almost Friday. The day went by kind of quick. Do you have any plans for the weekend? I work Saturday and Sunday so, that’s what i’ll be doing.  Today was the last day of editing. It took some time but, I am so excited to see how it turns out. There is some bad news that J should probably mention…  So, our third member of the group, Kester might be switching schools. this came out of nowhere. if we had to re-film, we would have to find somebody to play his part. we made memories during this project so it’s kind of sad to see him go. hopefully he’ll go on and do better at his new school.  Some bad news about editing is that we won’t be able to get the texts on the screen. The group and I have to find a font for the peoples names that were part of the film. We tried to find another way to show the viewers the back-and-forth text messages. Jahziah was in charge of doing the text in the film. Jahziah is such a great editor and did a ...
