Filming Is Almost Done! And I'm Sick :(

   Today, we were able to finish almost all our filming! Once we got in class, we went back and looked at our storyboard and our planning blog so we could start going over what we were doing. The only scenes we had left were all inside, which made filming pretty simple. Everyone else cleared out of the classroom to finish their filming so we had the room almost entirely to ourselves. I DID remember to bring my prop today (thank god), so we were able to make up for lost time last class. The prop is a 100 pack of Crayola colored pencils I own. For a majority of the time today while filming, I was the one filming, Camille was our main actress, and Kaitlyn was mostly in charge of prop set-up. We all were sort of co-directors in this process. When filming for our 2nd and 3rd scenes (our split screen scenes) w
e had to take extra time to make sure the scenes that were going to be side by side lined up with each other. We had used Kaitlyn's phone to record the actual shot, and then sent the different videos to my phone, and played them at the same time side by side. Each took a couple tries to try and get it just right, but after we finished, we started filming for our 5th and 6th scenes. This took the longest, because the 6th scene is an action match scene continuing from the 5th scene, so it took a lot of takes of each to get it right. We did end up with quite a few bloopers from these scenes. Mainly because Camille kept laughing, which made the rest of us laugh, messing up the shots. But, we were thankfully able to finish the bulk of our filming, leaving us with our intro scene to film which is will probably take about 5-10 minutes. Next class, once we get everything done, we will officially start the editing. I will be the one mainly doing our editing, mainly because I have past experience with it. But I obviously will be doing it with revises, checks, and insights with from my partners. Hopefully the rest of this process goes by smoothly. Even though we'll have minor setbacks in the coming week, due to me being out of school because of a cold, and Kaitlyn being absent due to surgery, but we have ways to work it out.
