Closing Off Production

 We have only about two days left to our production and the pressure is rising. We started off pretty behind filming wise due to weather and our availability to film. However, we pushed through and got it done. We finished our filming, did our editing, added the music, added the subtitles, now all that's left to do is tweak it to be perfect. Ella and I were thinking about reshooting one of our scenes at the beach because we felt like the audio didn't sound well. It was very windy. We ended up reshooting yesterday and we deleted the old clip and added it into our film. The only thing we had to edit was the transitioning between the scenes and we had to readd the captioning. We tweaked very small details in our editing such as sizing with the subtitling captions, placement, and lighting of certain scenes. The lighting in the staircase scene was absolutely horrid so we had to use an app to change the lighting to be somewhat darker to make the scene look more subtle. We were debating adding another song to the end of our scene just for the relaxation of it so we searched on Youtube. We made a playlist of possible songs we could add towards the final scenes. We had to make sure that these songs were free and couldn't be copyrighted. Ella took it upon herself to export the finished video to her computer because she wanted to work on some of it on her own. She went through our scenes to make sure we had good transitioning such as seamless jump cuts and good fade outs. We didn't want the transitions to be very noticeable because it would possibly distract from our project itself. To say the least we are so close to done! We are beyond excited to finish and send it in for Cambridge to grade. It's such an amazing process to go through and it takes lots of time and effort to make everything perfect! We will see you soon!
