It's Over

 Hello everyone. This is it. The final post. I'm very appreciative of everyone who has helped me along with this project. I cannot express my gratitude enough. Thank you.

Now, what this post is about.

I had a ton of fun making the CCR. It felt like making a youtube video to put on your channel. The editing was fairly simple and it was a very enjoyable process.

 AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

It's done. Thank you for going on this journey with me. I learned a lot and I look forward to what lies ahead.

This is Fine...

 

 Me right now

We are down to the wire now. The editing phase of the project is almost done, it is due next Monday. In addition, we have to put together a Creative Critical Reflection. This means ANOTHER VIDEO TO EDIT, YAY! 

Last finishing touches in regards to audio tracks, sound effects, dialogue, etc are due. I anticipate going slightly over the two-minute mark.

But onto the CCR. I'm excited to do it because we were instructed to have fun with it. I would say I'm a "meme connoisseur," so I can't wait to make my CCR entertaining as well as complete the requirements associated with this task.

Music Choice

I've finally made a decision on what music to put in the film opening. Right now, I want to use "Decisions" by Kevin MacLeod from the Youtube Audio Library and "In 3" by Godmode, also from the Youtube Audio Library. 

I'm want to loop the first four seconds of "In 3" at the beginning of the opening. I think it fits the scene well as well as provides some sound to a rather quiet situation. As for "Decisions," I want to use the song when the scene changes to the protagonist's house because as the song's name suggests, a decision is being made. I'm quite happy with my music choices I think they will implement well in the project.

Editing Update

 Hello again. I'm back with another editing update. I've finished splicing the clips together and now is the sound editing and fine-tuning phase. I believe I am on track to finish editing the opening by Monday or Tuesday. 

I still need to decide on what background music to play so that decision will likely come tomorrow or Monday. See you later.

What Has Been Edited So Far?

As I mentioned last week, I began editing my film opening yesterday and I have been working on it today. I have about 30 seconds of the finished project edited but I would say the pace is slow because I still haven't reached a decision on what music to play and I am doing an internship all of this week during the day, therefore, I can only work on this at night. 

I hope to finish editing this by the end of next week so I can have from then until April 4 to focus 100% on the Creative Critical Reflection.

 

That's A Wrap!

Yesterday, I went back to the set to finish filming there and wrapped up the at-home scenes. Filming is 90% done. Just need to record audio pieces. 

At sunset, I went back to the office to film shots 1-6 as I had not done it previously when I was there with Santiago. This shoot went relatively quickly as it was just me and there were only a few shots to take. After that, I went back home and waited for nightfall to film the at-home scenes.

Around 8 o'clock, I began filming the at-home scenes. This shoot took way longer than expected as I had some trouble figuring out to get the lighting right as well as having my whole face visible over the briefcase. I finished filming around 9:30 and I feel very confident in how this is going to turn out.

The next step will be recording audio and scouting for sound effects and music.

Next week, I plan to edit my project so I'll keep you posted.
