  This is it!!! my group and i finally completed our final task project. I had a lot of fun doing this with my group, it was an interesting project and i loved working with my group. 

Jenni encountered a technological problem and managed to lose the project on her device. She managed to transfer everything to her laptop and phone prior to everything deleting. She managed to find the project on her ipad, but there was a few things she needed to fix in order for it to be the way it was before.  I am truly so glad She figured out a way to fix this major issue because of how little time we had, redoing the project would have caused many problems and could lead us to a very bad consequences. After the recovery She re did and finish the entire project, some of the new things She had added were more text titles in towards the beginning, as well as smooth transitioning between scenes so it does not look wonky and out of place. She added coloring to add onto the atmosphere of where our film is taking place and white time it had been as well. Even with this having such a short run time it was very difficult it to maintain it under the run time requirements. But I am extremely

 Now that we have the music portion of this project out of the way it's time to start the editing part of this film production. After discussing with my team members Jenni decided to take responsibility for the editing while we critique it and see what Shes able to add and or improve. First She told us she added all of the scenes we had filmed into the program put them all in order of how the storyboard was made. It actually took quite a bit of time to do this. She was planning out how She was going to cut down most of these clips. Because of how long some of the clips were they went way past the limit of the film and It was needed to come up with a creative way to actually cut it down. some scenes were cut that may have had unnecessary filler or deleted complete scenes in general because it felt like filler as the most fails in it. Some clips needed to be cut due to how long some of the clips were they went way past the limit of the film. Scenes that may have had unnecessary fille

After my group finished the filming scene of the group chat conversation we moved on to the next film. The scene after the text messages was where we all were supposed to meet up at the main character's house. While reviewing the script my groupmates decided to skip the introduction as they thought it could be unnecessary. The reasoning why the decision was that if the friends know each other why would they need an introduction. Because of this change and because of the fact that we were already running out of time we were discussing canceling the rest of the filming. We would still film on another day just pushed back. My group decided that we should try it today and just adapt to the script and that is what we ended up doing. We started by finding a spot that "Looked the most like a house" as we on the lounge are of my apartment building. The place we thought would best fit a house setting was the kitchen area of the office. After the location was decided we started get

My group finally began the filming process for our short film. For the location, my group all came to my apartment since we would have a lot of space there. Melvon arrived first and then we waited for the rest of my groupmates to arrive. Since it was everyone's first time on location they had a bit of confusion with the directions but everyone eventually arrived. We had to push the time of filming back as there were also transportation troubles. When everyone arrived i showed everyone around the location and we decided on the best place to begin filming. Jeni was the one to bring the props so we can use them for our filming. She brought two dolls that we could pick from and decide which would be the best fit. For deciding the dolls we wanted the doll that was the creepiest and would fit thematically. My group eventually found an office space which was the lounge area. We could use and it was empty with space that could be used to film. Once we all arrived at the office area we bega

Unfortunately, once again my group had problems with transportation to our filming location. We still aren't sure when we can begin filming because it can't start until everyone is on set. We are facing strict conditions as everyone is busy or struggling to get a ride to the apartments we are filming at. Due to the massive setback, we are currently facing my group will have to work even more efficiently when we eventually begin filming. Another problem we have is that we have a main character. Because of this, if the main character is unable to film, my group cant proceed. We wanted Jeni to be the main character for the film as I envisioned her being the best for the role, however, she has had many problems trying to film. My group is once again trying to schedule filming but it has been extremely difficult. We should be able to film late next week but I want to film sooner. Because we have no footage and film shot out yet, we are unfortunately unable to report and discuss how
