Our Process

This is almost the third week we have been intensively working on this project and we have had several difficulties as well as accomplishments. The biggest difficulty we have had so far is planning and having specific days in which we all meet and gather to film. Since there are four persons in the group, it is very hard to choose a day because there is usually one person that isn't available to film and this has caused delay in our process which means we will have less time to edit the movie. Another issues is that none of the members of our group have a tripod and finding one has been very complicated, so when we film, the camera sometimes moves and this may distract the viewer or cause an effect that we aren't looking for. Finally, after filming the first scene we realized that the sound and the dialogue can't be heard very clearly due to distracting noises such as people speaking as we film and cars passing by, but for this we have decided that we will do an over voice so that it sounds much better. 
Even though we have had these complications, we have also had some accomplishments. The days we have filmed have been very productive and we have been able to film as much as we can in one day. Also, the day we chose to film the first scene at Starbucks was a very good choice because the day was very sunny which made the image be very clear and high quality. Also, we have already edited this whole first scene and created the poster we will use to promote our movie around school. This is considered an accomplishment because the more we do and advance now, the more time we will have to edit and do any final corrections. Finally, we have also been able to decide the exact places and scenes that will be filmed in the future and this is very helpful because as soon as we are ready to film we don't have to think in what we are going to do or how we are going to do it (which takes a lot of time) since we already have all of this planned, and this will make the filming process more effective and successful.
