The third filming expirence:The movie

          Today I will be telling you about the last AICE media project we had this year. It's sad to know that this could be the last group project I ever do with my girls. The best thing about this year was growing a relationship with anyiah and lily. They were the best partners I could ever ask for and they worked just as hard as I did. They were there to help every step of the way and I'm so glad that they were my partners the whole year. We started this project off with planning for absolutely everything. We took two weeks just to get our ideas. Then another week to plan the storyboard. Then it was time for planning props and costumes. We really took all the time we could possibly get for this project because we wanted it to be perfect. We all worked really hard on this project because we wanted to pass the test. We finished all the filming and now we wanted to get a date and time. Once we had our finished plans we set a date and went on our way. We met up at lilys house with anyiah and our friend Paige. This time we took the time to pack our camera and sd card and tripod and test everything to make sure we were ready. Then we took the time to make sure all of the people we invited were set to come. We started filming in lilys house and while we filmed scenes that had me,lily and her mom. Then while we were doing that anyiah and paige held the camera and fixed the lighting.We got to the mall and we were set to film. When we got to the mall we first filmed in the Macys and we got permission to film. Then we moved to the forever 21 and filmed there. We had to wait a while for people to clear out because we didn't want anyone to be in the background. Then we got back home finished filming the homes scenes and then we started editing and going through the shots. That's when aniyah filmed the noises and found the background noises. Then we finished editing and complete the project. This was one of the best projects we ever had and we loved making it too.

Second filming expirence: The music video

                 Hello everyone today I will be taking you through the second project I was apart of in AICE media. This project was about a music video. My partners and I went through multiple stages of choosing songs and looking for ideas. It took a while and even a whole project restart. WE restarted the project because we didn't like our original idea or the song anymore. So we picked a new song and a new theme and we got on our way to filming. We planned to do the music video to the song from the movie teen beach. The song was called surfs crazy it was a fun and groovy song and we loved it. We thought it was a perfect song to dance and sing along too. We planned a perfect day at the beach with props and friends and the camera and the trip. The day had finally come where we were going to the beach and things went wrong really fast. This time we were so busy making sure our equipment was ready and that we had a backup plan for if it rained or if there were too many people, but we did not plan for the disaster ahead. We forgot to double-check to make sure everyone was able to come and bring the props they were in charge of. We had about ten people in the beginning and they were all supposed to bring props and food and lily and I were in charge of the camera and the tripod. First, it was our partner anyiah that had canceled because she no longer had a ride but that was oke. But by the time we got to the beach so many people had canceled, it was just Lily and me. We made the best of what we had which was just a camera and a tripod. We got to learn some dance moves and got to singing and we finished filming. NOw that we had finished we had the sd card and got to editing on iMovie. This project was better than the last but not as good as the next.

First filming expirence: The commercial

       Hello, everyone, as you know the school year, has been put online and I'm going to be showing you my progress through the year. This year I have taken part in many media projects and have absolutely loved all of them. The first project I will be taking you through is the first project I ever filmed edited and helped produce. Thought this one was a rough start and a rough project as a whole I ended up liking the complete commercial. So ill start you off with our storyboarding and planning. It went smoothly and we took our time to make back up plans for the weather for our background for the scenes. We finished all of our planning and scheduling and we were on our way to film for the first time. We got our checklist and we were on the way we picked up our camera, tripod and sd card. We walked all the way to our spot to film and it was perfect. We got the right spot and perfect lighting and we were just about done setting up. This is when things started going down hill. We are about to put the camera on the tripod and this is where it went wrong for the first time. The piece to connect the camera to the tripod wasn't in the bag. So we pack up the stuff and bring everything back to the class and get a new bag and this time we checked it before we left. When we got back to the spot it was less sunny and someone was filming in our spot. But we asked them and they were almost done so we start setting up again and we finally get the camera on and it only had 20 minutes of battery left. By the time we got back and finally got the right spot and the right tripod and the right camera we only had 15 minutes to film. We didn't finish what we were filming and we only had 45 minutes the next day. This time we made sure we checked everything and got all the filming done. We edited and found out it was hard to edit with pinnacle and we couldn't even find our right sd card this point. Turn out someone else had also filmed on it and was using it. So now that we finally got all of our films and started editing we had to switch to imovie because it worked better for us. We finished editing and now we could turn it in. NOw we had looked at our grade and we got a 90% not our best try but it was a good start.
