Website and Media

Image
 The filming and editing are both complete. This has been a long process but it is almost over. All that is left to do is create a website and an Instagram. These will both be easy to do. Sean H. has agreed to create both. The project is completed so now the advertising must be created. Again, this will be easy. The Instagram will feature pictures of all the actors. Along with this, it will advertise the release of the film. The website will be linked in the bio of the Instagram. The YouTube will also be linked. This is where the film will be uploaded. Sean H. has the finished film. This means that he will be the one to upload it. My group is super excited for everyone to see our film. The editing was completed well. I have received only positive feedback from anyone who has seen the film. I can't wait for everyone to see this film. My group worked super hard on it and I think it turned out great. This has been a fun process and I am glad the outcome was as good as I had hoped....

Finished Filming

Image
 Today my group finished filming. After two days, my group is done. Everyone was there on time today. My group worked quickly and everyone was focused the whole time. My scenes as one character were filmed first. Then the scenes with Rhys and Sean D. were filmed. After that, my scenes as the other character were filmed. Some scenes were filmed in the car at the end since the location was not important. There was only one scene with other people in the background. They both agreed to be in the film since they were far away. My group was thankful for this because it would be a pain to have to reshoot. Rhys agreed to edit the film. He said that he would do it as soon as he could. There is more than enough time to edit. This means that he does not have to rush. Sean H. will also be editing. Hopefully those two working together will have the film finished quickly. This will make it easier for a peer review. I am happy to be finished filming. This film will be great!

More Details...

Image
 My group has discussed more details for filming. It will still happen Sunday. Everyone is available. I don't have any plans. Sean D. called out of work. Sean H. didn't have work. Rhys is able to come but only for 2 hours. Everyone will meet at Ann Colb Nature Center at 10am. Then everyone will walk across the street to a nature trail. There are a lot of scenes to film. Everyone will wear their costumes. This will make the process faster. Hopefully there will be enough time. The only issue will be keeping other people out of the background. If anyone is in a scene that looks good, I will get permission from them to be in the film. If they say no then the scene will be redone. Sean D. and Rhys will be in almost every scene. I am only in a few scenes. I play two roles in the scenes being filmed. Hopefully there will be enough time to finish the film before Rhys has to leave. 

Nothing to do...

Image
 There is nothing else to do. This week feels like a waste of time. Since filming cannot happen until Sunday, there is nothing else to do this week. I cannot even do a peer review because there is not enough film to review. I wish my group could film sooner so the project could be completed. After filming, it will still need to be edited. Only then can I get a peer review. Until then, there is nothing else to do. I have baseball practice every day this week. The only day I don't have practice is Friday. That's because I have a game. I am keeping busy all week. I just don't like that I cannot finish this film sooner. My group feels the same way. Everyone wants to be done with this project. Only a few more days until filming. Then, Rhys said he would help to film. This is very crucial to the project. Rhys has been super helpful for this project. His acting and now editing plays huge roles in the final project. 

A Change

Image
 Today my group decided to finish filming on Sunday. This is the only information that has been decided. No time is set. I don't know how much time there will be. Today I have a baseball game. Hopefully my team will win. I also decided to do something that I am hoping wont be noticed in the film. I got another haircut. This one was different though. I shaved it all off. I got a buzz cut. I had promised one of my friends that if he did it I would do it. He got his buzz cut so I had top get mine. I am hoping no one will notice it in my film. My hair was super long so I don't know how well I can hide it. The back of my head looks completely different. I will try to show it as little as possible. That will be very hard. I told my ground so everyone knows. I will see what I can do to minimize this. 

Back to Planning

Image
 My group is back to finding plans. Filming was not completed so another day is required. This time it will be at a park near my house. Everyone will meet there. The process of planning a filming day is always difficult. I think next Sunday will have to work. No one is working and I do not have any games. Hopefully this will be good for everyone. I can bring my costume to film and so can Sean. Rhys will also have to come since he is one of the main actors. It will probably take longer because there are more scenes. This is a problem because there is less time. I will try to find a way to make it work since it is by my house. Hopefully Rhys can move his plans to be a different day so there will be more time. If he cannot there might even need to be a third day to film. I hope it does not come to that. I know I will be free all day. Sean H. said he would be free all day. Sean D. said he could call out of work. Lets just hope Rhys can come through so filming can be completed.
