 Below is a 12-minute video of my CCR. In it I explain the foods I make throughout the day. As well, as going in depth on sneakers and my sneaker hobby.

Final Task: R3VENGE

 Below is attached the final task that was made by me and my group. About 3-5 hours worth of film was done to cultivate what you see below. Non-diegetic sound was utilized throughout the whole video which is something we have not done before. Overall, this was yet another fun project, and I'm satisfied with the progress that was made. Hope you guys enjoy!

Review Blog: We're Almost Finished!

 It's been a few days since I've started editing my part. Throughout the editing process it took, about 1-2 hours to edit my part of the video. Which in essence, was to firstly select the clips that would be used for the film. Then secondly, to edit them to be usable in the actual video. I had easily over 50 video clips that I had to evaluate through. Then I took a bunch of the clips and combined them on Adobe. From there I started filtering out which video clips were relevant and which ones were not. The most difficult part of that task was making sure that it all added up to 2 minutes, no more no less. After I did that, I sent the montage to Corey. Where he added the titles, credits, transitions, and sound. I alongside with Corey handled most of the editing process of the video. All while Cailey and Chelsey, they mainly gave us their opinion as an audience would. The two of them gave many suggestions to me, which proved helpful. It helped me to ensure the video was top notch

Editing Blog: Much To Do, Little Time

 I have 2 days until the final project is due, and minimal editing has been done. I am editing the film alongside with help from Corey. But there's a problem. Normally I will just email the video clips that were shot from my phone. Then Corey receives it to put the clips together. However, some of the videos that were filmed are too large to be sent through email. So now I have to find an alternative solution to sending Corey the clips. I've contemplated uploading the clips to a flash drive, and giving it to him. But the soonest I would be able to do that is tomorrow. Tomorrow will be 2 days until the project is due. I do not want to bring that pressure upon myself, especially Corey. The plan is tonight, I will start to filter out the clips that were filmed. The ones that will be needed and not needed. The ones needed will be sent to Corey and I will start to work on it. The ones not needed, I will just temporarily delete. I will attempt to find Corey during lunch today, to see

Filming Blog: The Entire Group Filming

 Finally, after much time and planning, the entre group was able to film. I was going to film the group originally on Thursday. But found out that, it wouldn't work for Corey. So, Friday afternoon was the agreed date to film. The filming session lasted from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. The entire filming session took place at Corey's house. While his mother was partially supervising us. The amount of film needed to finish the project was filmed that day. Throughout the filming session, not many difficulties were encountered on my part. Some of the scenes that were filmed were Corey driving alone. Then Corey and Cailey in the car driving and socializing. Furthermore, them "picking" Chelsey up. Finally, them running me over, and the ending scene. Something that was filmed that was not scripted was the ending scene. After I get run over, they frantically stop and get out of the car to come and check on me. Ditching the body out of fear of what may happen. I then proceed to slo

Production Blog: More Filming Progress

 On April 1, more filming was done by some group members. Originally, the plan was for everyone, including myself, Chelsey, Cailey, and Corey to be there. However, due to circumstances beyond my control and Chelsey's, the two of us were not able to be present during the filming session. I had no one that was able to take me to the park to film on Saturday. This was because of an event that my parents were at on Saturday morning till afternoon. Chelsey was stuck in Miami, which is 40 miles from the park, without anyone to take her. The project is not compromised, however. Cailey and Corey filmed more of the beginning scene. It has been agreed that either on Thursday or Friday, the filming will be finished. Thursday is being considered because that day is early release, at 11:40. So that means that the entire afternoon will be available for me to film the group. If Thursday does not work, then the rest of the filming will be done on Friday. It will be more difficult to film on Friday
