Editing Blog

   My partner Jeannie wanted to edit the film since we used my story or pitch and because I drew the storyboard which was about 8 or 9 pages long. After filming I was able to dump the footage onto my laptop and move it into my folder specifically for AICE Media Studies. My partner brought her laptop when we did the re-shoot last week on Thursday so I can dump the footage from the SD card onto her computer since she wants to edit it. She decided to edit the scenes together with all the transitions and effects we wanted to create the Thriller and Action feeling through our genre. We both decided to keep the titles for last so we can decide together when we meet up to re-edit the film. We already have the title design in our mind but we wanted to wait and see the right places to edit our title on that can be seen and read. My partner Jeannie already has a mindset of how the film is supposed to look like so I trust her with getting it done before the deadline. For the music I decided to handle searching for a non copyrighted song since it is too much of a hassle to email the producers to use a song in the movie. I am looking for a song that will fit the theme of our film and bring out that thriller feeling among the audience. I am pretty happy with how my partner and I are handling the situation due to the COVID-19 virus and I am glad that the AICE Media Studies class is all online.
    Since my partner is handling, editing the film I am waiting until she finish so all I have to focus on right now is assisting my partner and getting these blogs written. We were supposed to have school this week but because of the virus, Broward County Public Schools District closed schools for this week and now we have 2 weeks of spring break. This 2 weeks of spring break is the perfect time to get this done and finalized for April 9th which the due date. The last important thing I am putting all my focus on is the CCR since it has to be 10 minutes long so right now I am writing my script and start filming with the camera I have. Since school is closed for this week I still have the camera and tripod for when I checked it out so I am going to be putting it into good use for the CCR. I am making sure that I turn everything in on time and that I check the dates from the pictures I took in class especially with the blogs since we have a blog every Monday and Thursday. I am making sure I keep myself healthy but still working myself even though we have no school. I plan to work together with my partner and discuss with her when to meet up to re-edit and watch the film. This Thursday I will for sure have more information on what was edited and how everything is going with my partner. I plan to accomplish the goal of getting the film done on time and impress my audience.
