Re-Editing

  I re-filmed last week. Now I have edited all of that into my film. It wasn't a lot because I only re-filmed part of my film, not that much. I had to fix the music so it can align perfectly with the film. My music was royalty-free. So I didn't have to pay for anything or ask for permission. I used two websites. I also used sound effects. The sound effects were also royalty-free. Anyone can use royalty-free music even me. All of it was royalty-free so I don't get in trouble.  I have gotten a lot faster at using the editing software. This is my third project. I know where everything is, so I do everything quicker. I edited my movie the whole class because i tried doing some fancy stuff, more complicated. So it isn't so basic. I made some of the characters get a glitchy effect.
  I also had to fix the title. Since I changed some of the scenes the timing got mixed up. I fixed that and everything was ready. I finished editing and now my project is complete.

Peer Review

  Today we did the peer review. I reviewed a groups  film, and another group reviewed my film. I was a group of one. So I only got feedback from one person. It was still really helpful. I had everything I need for camera angles, movements, and other stuff that was necessary.
 One of the things she really like was the storyline. I used sci-fi.becuase it was someehat easy. Everyone always does horror becuase that's the easiest. I came up with a somewhat original idea that, isn't to close to an already existing movie. I thought it would be hard to understand becuase of how it looked like in the storyboard. But it turned out good when it was done. 
  There were a few problems with my film. I accidentally filmed the tripod when I was filming the bathroom, mirror scene. It was extremely difficult trying not to get the tripod. I couldn't think of anything. I also accidentally recorded some background people, not to noticable. My biggest problem was the middle. The scenes where the car is about hit the girl it was really dark where I was filmingm there was no light. It was already night and it was behind building without light. I could edit it to be brighter but if it doesn't work I have to film earlier in the day, or a place with more light.
  I liked getting my film reviewed by another person. I got to know what was good and what wasn't. Also what I needed to fix.

More Filming also Editing

This was my last weekend to film before we do the peer review. I need to have something finished for that. I also have to edit it. On Saturday I filmed at the park for most of the day. My actress was not coaporating, she kept laughing. So that took me a while The next day on Sunday I went somewhere for the part of the morning then afterwards I decided to change more stuff on my storyboard. I changed the beach scene to something more appropriate. It was getting to full and hard to follow. I already filmed for 3 days and today I edited what I had so far. I added everything I had, edited them, added a few titles, and the music. I filmed at the park again to do any other scenes and at the end of the day I filmed all the night scenes for the dark lighting. I finished filming on sunday. Today Monday I edited everything I filmed over the weekend.
 On Saturday was the only day I could be with my actors. We all met up somewhere and filmed. I had four other people. Three actors and one assistant to help me. I filmed all the ending scenes. Everything went pretty well, and I got stuff done. It was hard for my actors becuase they kept messing up and giggling but I told them how to do it and they tried there hardest.
