Production (19)

 Problem

    Today, we ran into a problem. We were supposed to finish up the majority of our filming. Yet last minute two of the girls couldn't come. The girls that play Sammy and Sophia. Leaving Amparo and I left to film whatever we can. Yet the only problem is that there are no scenes in our opening film that have just me in it, and Amparo is the filmer. We have already some opening clips filmed so it wouldn't make sense to switch up the character at this point. Amparo and I were already prepared to go to the beach to film so we decided to still go and maybe get some montage shots of the beach that we could incorporate if it fits in our opening film during the editing process.

    These are just a couple of the videos we got. We tried to make the most of it.

Solution

    Amparo and I decided to figure out a new schedule from here. How we can make sure to still get everything done on time. We decided to plan more days to film instead of just two to have "back up" filming days. If not everyone can go to maybe two of the filming days, if we plan for four filming days, all of us will have to be available at least one of the four. We decided to make the odds more likely and planned filming days for tuesday through friday for the week of march 3-10. This gives us a variety of days to have better chances at us all being there as well as giving us time to start up on editing over the weekend days of saturday and sunday. Now that we fixed our slight bump in the road, we feel less panicked and actually more prepared than ever! I'm excited to finish filming and start the editing, which so far has been my favorite out of any project we have done in class.
