03/31- Final editing touches

     As my partner Natali and I are almost done with the editing process of the film, we are using iMovie, the application on a Mac to edit the whole entire project. We chose the editing software iMovie because we both have Macbooks and are both very familiar with this application as we have both done previous projects on it. To summarize our editing process, we first started by importing all the clips filmed on my phone. After, we ordered them, creating sequencial scenes to our story. The real editing began when we cut out the extra footage we didn't need or didn't add any meaning to the project. This alone took a few days. However once we fully had all of the footage we needed, we added transitions, zooms, the opening title, and filters. Slowly, the production started to come to life. As for the sound editing, we decided to cut sounds into some pieces we only wanted to include in the video. Moreover, the dialogue between our characters were certainly included, as we only did slight changes to the volume.

3/15 New Actor Look..?

 The actor had a different look from Oscar's but we have adjusted and overcame this problem.


    Since our original actor couldn't work with us, we ended up choosing my friend Nick, as the new one. In contrast to the previous actor's blonde hair, Nick has dark brown hair. Due to the short period of time to find this new actor, we had to choose one very quickly. This meant that we only had time to gather someone who could simply do the job. This is definitely a challenge, but it is one that me and my partner have overcome. That is why our new actor came in to save the day. I was really good friends with the new actor and I knew that I could ask him to be part of this project, so I did. Thankfully, he agreed and overall, the change is not too drastic especially since he still has the same slim fit physique and fits the age range we were originally looking for.

3/14 Peer blog review...

Here are my AMAZING classmates...


Today in class, we got into groups and spoke about each others projects. We did this within a random group of students in our classroom, which allowed for non bias critics. I proceeded to narrate my production plot and was told it was very interesting and amusing. I'm quite glad that my group picked up on the humor that is in my film, even with very little dialogue. I also described Oscar, my main character who is supposed to be a charming teenager, that is running away from security, and is able to make the audience laugh at the same time. Heres a picture from today's meeting!
