My Group for My Final Task (or Lack of One)

 What's up y'all? Now that I'm starting my final task, I'm having to start preparing. This means finding a group. Now, let me tell you some drama. 

    I had a group with a couple friends that we had discussed multiple times since the beginning of the year. Naturally, since we're friends and we knew we were all taking the class. However, yesterday, when I talked to them about the group, they said that they had "previous commitments" and couldn't be in a group with me. Awesome, right??!! 

    So I guess it's just me now. I have no clue if I'll be able to find someone before we start making the actual final, but I think I probably won't even bother. It'll be more boring this way, and a LOT more work for me, but I guess I'll deal. At least I won't have to argue with people about decisions and stuff. 

   Since it's just me though, that means I have to be producer, editor, camerawomen, and possibly even the actor. I'm sure I can come up with an idea where I would just need myself to act, but I'm actually just realizing the possibility of having my brother be in it as well. My brother wants to be an actor himself, so I wonder if I did something with him and I having a call or something...

    I'm just ideating though. We'll see what I come up with. The main thing that would be difficult with that is having someone record me. Maybe I'll just have to get a tripod or something, figure it out from there. 


You'll find out soon enough I guess! Until then, have a good one.

Update!!: I found a group! My friends Conner Cleary and Finn O'brien offered to have me join their group! Yay!

Hmmm… Decisions, Decisions

      What’s up guys! What’s going on? It’s been a minute since I’ve been able to blog without guidelines!      Sabrina, Charlize, and I had a talk today about roles in our final project. We don’t have a “team leader” or anything, so we need to decide who does what in order to make sure everyone gets something done. As in, who plays the characters, who’s doing the voice over, who’s actually filming everything, etc.      This is a really important step in the process since for our music video, we had some disagreement about it. We all agreed that we can’t let that happen again, so that’s why we did this.      So, to start, we determined our actresses. We talked about having me as an actress, but I honestly don’t really feel comfortable in front of the camera. So instead, Sabrina is going to play Madeline. Charlize said that she had a very specific way she imagined the voice over being done, so she wanted to do it herself. T...

Editing Blog: What's That? We're finished?

Image
      WHAT'S UP PALS!!! I am superr hyped right now. Why? Because we're done with our opening sequence!      So, like with the music video, Charlize came to my house to edit. We used the same editing software, Movavi editor, to do our final project. First, she, Sabrina (who was on facetime with us), and I made a game plan. We went through all the scenes we already filmed and discussed which ones we'll use and what order they'll be in.      Then, we put them all into the software. The files were way too big to email, so I had to create a new Google account and back the videos up on Google Photos. This was the easiest way to get them onto my computer.      Getting them onto Movavi was a whole 'nother deal. For some reason, the videos downloaded in the wrong file format, so they didn't work with Movavi. There was no way to download them differently, so I had to screen record each one and upload the screen recordings to Movavi. Alt...
