Final Reflection

 Hey guys!! I can’t believe it I am finally done with this project, after 9 weeks. When I first got the project, March 25th felt so far away. Filming this project has been like a roller coaster. There were so many ups and downs.

The day my teacher told me about this project I felt so overwhelmed but I got through it. I had a bunch of different ideas at first. My top two were the rom com and a thriller. I ended up going with the Rom com because I was more familiar with that genre.

 One big problem we had was when I had a family and I had to go out of town for 10 days. That moment me and my partner were both stressed but the whole time we were there we kept in touch and mostly worked on our planning so when I came back we could film right away. 

The first day we filmed we got some great footage of Ethan walking on the street and the lighting was perfect but by the time we got to film Lily's part it got a little dark Figuring out what days to film was so hard. Everyone had very different schedules but we made it work.

Me and my partner both did not have much experience using Adobe premier pro but we learned and watched a bunch of tutorials together. In the past I have worked on smaller projects like my one word film, but this project made me think outside of the box and pushed me to think more creatively and work through my problems myself.

 

This was my first year taking an AICE class and after hearing about this project I was so nervous and I thought I could not do it and what made me feel a little worse is I have a bunch of people in my class who are amazing at these kinds of projects so after our first group meeting i was scared mine would not turn out as good at theirs but in the end its not a competition. All the group meetings were so good everyone was so supportive of each other and gave very helpful input.

Overall I am so happy how it turned out. I am so proud of myself and my partner, it was a challenge getting here but we finally did it.
