final day of editing

              Well, this project is coming to an end. After day one of filming going crazy andus not being able to find the parts that the camera needed. Then the camera dying on top of all of that. Then day two runs around and we had 30 minutes to shoot the entire commercial. By the way, did I mention we had to refilm everything because someone deleted all of our footage off of our other sd card! You must be thinking "this must get easier for the girls". It really didn't like at all. WE come around to our first day of editing and it was as simple as grabbing the sd card and plugging it in to dump the footage. Well with our luck it didn't get any easier. We go to the bin to get our sd card, and guess what happened? It was nowhere to be found. We first thought oh maybe we didn't get the number right, so we go to our check out paper and look for the card we took. WE got the number right but obviously, something was wrong if we couldn't find it where all the other cards were. So we ask and we were told that it might be in one of the cameras. We go sit down forgetting how many cameras there actually are and how long it would take just one person to check every single one. So the four of us worked together to look through every camera and find the sd card. we looked through a lot of cameras and the stack of ones left was getting short. The tension in the room was pretty high because if we did not find that sd card we were about to completely fail that whole project. Finally, there was one camera left and lily picked it up and there it was our sd card!! I have never been so anxious to find such a little piece of plastic. But that little piece of plastic would make our break our whole grade. We finally get t it plugged in and dump our footage and start looking through everything. We were pretty harsh on ourselves honestly. We picked on our every move and were very strategic in what we wanted to keep and what we wanted to cut out. But the class was gonna end soon so we had to wrap up and we got about a little less than halfway through editing projects. We go to class today just with the simple task of getting computer number 8 and finishing our editing. Well of course with our luck during this project we get to class and no computer number 8. In fact, it was the only computer missing. We sat down and waited till after the guy took attendance to go asking around trying to find it. So after all of that, we sat down and I noticed these girls i had never seen in my period that stayed for their study hall. They had the number 8. I had told them that and they said ok we will give it to you when we ware done "we will be done soon". Around ten minutes later she comes and gives me the laptop and it completely dead. Of course no we only have like 15 minutes left and we had to spend it waiting for the computer to get enough charge. Once it did i saved everything to google so we could work on it from another device and we got just a little more done. But for next class we will have to finish the other half. And hopefully nothing goes wrong this time. See you guys later.
