Hey Blog! I'm back, and I'm excited to share the video we've worked so hard on with all of you. I sincerely hope you find it as enjoyable to watch as it was for me to be a part of its creation!

 Hey Blog, I'm back with an update on our video project! So, after receiving feedback, we decided to take action to improve the video's quality before we upload it. The feedback suggested that reshooting one scene would be the best course of action. With the deadline looming, we knew we had to act fast. We quickly scheduled a reshoot for the very next day after receiving the feedback. Since it was just one scene, we were relieved that the reshoot wouldn't take too much time. When we all gathered at the original filming location, we had to set everything up just like before, which was a bit challenging. But thankfully, after reviewing the previous recordings, we remembered how to set up the location and position the camera. Once everything was in place, we started rehearsing the scene's dialogue. Luckily, we all remembered most of our actions and lines from the previous shoot, which sped up the process. Time was of the essence, especially with the sun setting soon. After

Hey Blog, I'm back with an update on our video project! So, a few days back, we finally wrapped up the video editing process. But before we share it with the world, we thought it'd be wise to get some feedback from a third party. We decided on a mutual friend who wasn't involved in the production process, so they could give us an unbiased opinion. We handed over a copy of the video for them to review thoroughly. After some time, our friend came back with their feedback. Overall, they said the video was pretty good, which was a relief! However, they did point out some areas for improvement. They mentioned that the acting seemed a bit awkward at times, but they also understood it was our first time acting in a video together. They particularly liked how we ended the video on a cliffhanger, which they thought would captivate the audience. But, there was one scene that didn't quite meet the mark. Our friend highlighted issues with its quality, which we hadn't noticed be

Today, we kicked off our editing session, but before diving in, we thought it wise to strategize our approach. We decided to research different editing software options to optimize our workflow. Despite my prior experience with editing programs, I felt exploring new software might enhance our video quality. I delved into popular options like Adobe Premiere Pro, iMovie, DaVinci Resolve, and Wondershare Filmora, only to find many were beyond our budget. However, some free programs showcased promising features for improving our video. Among them, CapCut stood out as a familiar choice, as my groupmates and I had prior experience with it. Once we settled on CapCut as our primary editing tool, we geared up to start editing the video promptly. I requested the footage from our groupmate responsible for recording. Upon receiving it, I initiated the process of assembling the videos within CapCut. Prior to diving in, I ensured to create a shared project within the app and shared it with all group

 Hello blog, I'm back! Today, our group resumed the video editing process, and we collectively agreed to divide the workload among ourselves to streamline the process. We opted for a shift-like system, akin to a job, to enhance efficiency and communication within the group. Initially, one of my groupmates took the first shift, tackling specific segments of the video. I then took over for the second shift, delving into the editing process myself. Upon starting, I noticed that my groupmate had already trimmed unnecessary parts of the video, yet it still exceeded the time limit. This prompted me to consider further cutting and shortening clips to meet the requirements. However, I underestimated the difficulty of this task, particularly in maintaining video quality while reducing length. I focused on trimming the beginnings and ends of clips initially but found it insufficient to meet the time constraint. Consequently, I had to resort to cutting sections from the middle of clips, being

Hey blog, I'm back to share the latest updates from our film project! Today marked the culmination of all our filming efforts, bringing us one step closer to completing our movie. Luckily, the scene we were filming today took place in the same location as our previous shoots, eliminating any concerns about finding a suitable filming spot. It was crucial for this scene to be close to the area where our first scene was shot, as there's a moment where a character glances back at the initial location. Since my character wasn't part of this particular scene, I dedicated my energy to assisting with camera movements. Fortunately, the other actors who volunteered for this project were present and eager to lend a hand behind the scenes. Before diving into filming, we decided to run through the scene a few times to ensure everyone was comfortable with their roles. Thankfully, the camera movements required weren't overly complex, and having recently purchased a tripod made it easi
