Unite

Today we had our second group meeting. We were placed with random people to review our progress, discuss, and make edits. It was very helpful. We begun by explaining what each of our openings is about and how far along we are in our project.

Ace’s film is about a brother taking care of the other brother who has powers. It's of the coming-of-age genre. He’s done editing, but he is noticing problems, so he is going back and tweaking it. Dani’s film is “a dude that raps and stuff with a mean producer.” It’s similar to whiplash and he’s halfway through editing. He also shaved his head, so he can’t reshoot anything that’s wrong. Camila’s film is about a teenager who is currently grieving the loss of her brother, coping through meth. She finished editing and is going to start her CCR. Gaby’s film is about a girl that gets transported into a book. She finished editing and is working on CCR. She has three of four questions done and is filming it today.

Then we watched everyone's film openings and gave critiques.

Ace's film had dialogue that was hard to hear, Dani's film needs to be edited still, Camila's film did not get any critiques, and Gaby's film needs to fix the sound for the alarm. I was also told to fix the alarm sound and to add the credits.

Overall, it was a great meeting. I loved the groups energy, we worked well together. Here's a picture of us!

   

Brooke's group had more comments about our opening, so we decided to get together after school to make some of the changes. Here is us adding the suggestions: 

I also scripted my CCR today. Here is my script!

All I need to do now is film it! I'm so excited to see the final result!
