Reflection questions (CCR)

Image
This is my CCR. In this video I will be answering questions and giving an overall reflection of the process of my project. My creative idea was to kind of make it a YouTube video intro. I edited in some sound effects and music. I did a voice over and interviewed myself. Hope you enjoy. I ha fun filming and editing this video:)  

Final task: The Comeback

 The name of my film is "The Comeback". I had fun making this film. I hope you enjoy it.

Production: adding music and titles

I'm editing my video now and I'm not happy with it. I added to much dialogue and my film is too long. I'm kind of really sad about it. It's definitely not my best work. I'm going to try to make everything more put together because at this point I'm just cutting part o the film and it looks so choppy. I didn't plan it out right. Because I had to do so many scenes I messed up. UGHHH, I'm sad. So far I got it down to 3 minutes and 35 seconds. I was really excited about this project and it's not looking too good. Hopefully I can turn nothing into something. If you couldn't already tell, I'm writing my blog and editing at the same time. UPDATE, I got it down to 3:09. Almost there! I shortened the dialogue in one of the scenes. To stop it from looking so choppy, I added transitions. UPDATE, 2:59 now!! Oh My Gosh. I just realized I have 59 more seconds to go. Such a drag. I think I'm going to start split screening most of it.  UPDATE, 2:24! I

Production: What's next

 Today we have to play glades an I'm so ready. We should've beat them when we played them but the weather was bad. We have to play 2 games to get to the championship. When we played them a couple weeks ago I hit good. Honestly I've been hitting well all season. On top of that their third basemen is trash so I'm probably just going to bunt. I'm pretty sure my sister is pitching and I'm catching to start the game. Yesterday and Saturday I worked. I was so tired. Dealing with people is not for me. I had to work drive thru for an hour an a half....never again. depending who's on grill, it take so long to get food out the window. because of that costumers think its your fault because they don't know what's going on. It was just really stressful. Today I have to go in to school because I have a writing exam. I think I'm a good writer, I just struggle with citing things. I just use info and don't say where its from...its so bad. I think today writin

Production: Big 8

 I had a game yesterday and we won. The team was really bad and so was the pitching. The girls they had probably threw 36 mph. It was so hard to hit because it was so slow. We ended up run ruling them. I was playing center field or a little then I played first base. I went 2/4. I popped out twice, I was so surprised the girl caught it. My sister also came back from college yesterday because one of the girls on her team got covid and she decided to quarantine here. I'm happy she's back but now I have to chare my room with her again. If you could see my face right now. I don't want to share my space anymore...It's been a day. I love her though of course. I was happy that she came to my game and I'm happy that she is coming to tonight game. We play South Plantation today. I think were going to win. We also made it to big 8 which is pretty big for us because we haven't won districts or anything since 2000. I'm not going to lie, m and my sisters changed the progr

production: Where I'm at with editing...and other things

 I haven't went to edit me film yet. at all. I'm not too pressed about it through because its due in two weeks. I'll get it done by then. hopefully. Anyways, My boyfriend took me on a surprise picnic date on Saturday. It was so fun. we got food from this "here an now" place in downtown Fort. Lauderdale. The fries were good. I also got wings. They were kind a spicy but it came with BBQ sauce on the side. I dipped my wing in the sauce until it ran out and then gave the rest to my boyfriend. He brought a bag soda and juice and I tried a new drink. It's really rare that I try new things because I think new thing are bad. I know, Not the best way to live life. We went to Victoria park, it was so nice there were kids running around but they were far enough away to not be annoying. We were there for probably 30 minutes then it started to ran, and I was NOT getting caught in no rain. WE finished eating so I told him to get the car and I would pack the stuff up. Then w

Production: A day in the life of me

 I've gotten my film time down to 4 minutes, so bless up for that. Now I got to get it down to 2 minutes...such a drag. I probably shouldn't had such long conversation within my scenes. I thinks it's coming back to bite me in the but. This is no good. I don't want to cut off the conversation but at the same time THE GOAL IS 2 MINUTES. Desperate times call for desperate measures? I even tried to speed some parts up but I don't know if I like that. I didn't see that  happen in any of the other examples that I watched. What will I ever do (smh= Shaking My Head). Anyways today I had a game and we were beating the team 7-2. YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPEN. we got caught in a rain delay. I know right, so not cash money. But I guess it was expected because we were basically in the every glades. The team we played today beat the team we played yesterday and we lost yesterday, but we were smacking the team we played today. It's mind blowing really. I was talking to
