Reflection #3

This is my third reflection, written the day after filming! All the footage looks fantastic!

1. Describe how your film is progressing at this point. What are some of the challenges? Successes? Concerns?
2. What exactly have you contributed to your project this week. Please be very specific.
3. What exactly do you need to get done next week? Please set a short term goal(s) for the following week.

1. At this point our actual film hasn't changed all that much. It is very smooth, the shots look nice, and we corrected the audio problems that occurred after moving computers during Saturday editing. Our challenges will be finishing on time (although I think we can do it). Our successes are that all the filming is done, what we have so far looks great, and that we'll have the HSA days to continue working. Concerns...whether all my group mates and myself will have the time to commit to this. I'll be working as hard as I can until it's turned in.

2. I stayed to edit on Saturday, Becca and I had Allison record the voice overs  we went out to film with me directing and Becca setting up the shots and being cinematographer. I think that Becca's work has been amazing and we'd get hardly anything done without her. She has also been doing a lot of editing along with me. I missed Friday and Monday and Tuesday  so have not done as much as I'd like. I'll be staying all of the school days next week. 

3. I'd like to insert all the voice overs into the right place on the time line, import all the footage, have a rough final cut by Wednesday  have everything perfect by Friday, have all the audio at the right levels, have the credits correct, basically everything that can be done by the end of this week. I want to have the film exported by Friday if possible, and Monday at last resort. 

Reflection #2

Sorry this is late...

1. Our film was progressing well with what we had, but we only had some of our footage - which inevitably was a problem. We are hoping we will be able to finish on time. 

2. I edited several times after school, corrected audio problems, and recorded voice overs to use in place of Allison's (which will be recorded next saturday). 

3. More touching up what we have of our film. We aim to find all the music we need. We are also filming next weekend, recording voice overs, and finding chase music. 

Weekly Reflection!

CAP Hollywood Weekly Reflection


1. Our film is progressing well, we have most of our footage, have imported and organized our clips, have begun editing and have found music. I think that our final product will turn out very well, unfortunately our final shots were supposed to be gotten today, but filming was cancelled. A challenge will be to make up the time we'll loose from this set back, the time constraints, and conveying the story in a realistic and compelling manner. The shots we already have look great and look professional.

2. This week I helped to import, find music, name and organize the clips, begin editing, and set a schedule for  the filming

3. My goal for next week would be to come in after school twice to edit, to make a rough draft of our project (with the clips we have), and to figure out a new time to finish shooting and record the voice overs.

Here is a clip from filming:
