Is this the end?
Hi for the 2nd last time blog. Today I will be recapping all of the memorable moments from the 2 months of thinking, writing, production, and editing.
Although I absolutely love filming and editing, I am so thankful the stress is now over.
Ever since I heard about the film opening project I knew I wanted it to be about cars. All school year I was thinking about how I could do it or how should I do it.
Eventually the project was actually introduced to us and everyone was gathering into partners (but me) (I got excluded)
Its okay though because I knew no one in our class would want to do what I accomplished. I had enough confidence in myself to know that I can successfully complete the film opening project alone and make it a banger. I couldn't let myself down right?
Yeah I lowkey did.. or did I? It took me awhile to find the right music and editing structure for my film. I constantly was taking out music, and adding new music in along with changing where each scene was placed. Eventually I found a sound and structure I was happy with (the one you will see) and I like it.
Overall, I am very happy with what I have achieved over these 2 months, but something feels wrong with my film and I cant exactly think of what. I shared my project to other and they all give me feedback of how its amazing and stuff, so I guess I shouldn't change anything.
Oh and btw all the audio i used is legal from epidemic sounds because I have a account!This is what the final timeline in premiere pro looks like if anyone is curious...
Well blog, its been a pleasure. Goodbye

Reflecting on the project about reflecting
Hi for the 3rd last time blog.
Filming my CCR's was surprisingly really fun! I originally thought of the CCR as an extra annoying step to complete this project but i was wrong.
This is what the prisoner CCR looks likeIts very cool i like
The 2nd one ended up being like a vlog. The "fan boy" got into my car and we drove around the neighborhood as he asked me questions from the CCR. It ended up looking nice and its a fun creative twist I think.

CCR Productions!
This is the end of the road chat.
Production for my 2 CCR Videos has just begun!
The first video I wanted to pretend to be a street racer that was caught and being interrogated by the police to continue the theme of my film opening. So in order to do this, I just called up my friend Daniel to ask if I can pick up his prisoner costume from Halloween. He said sure! This is what it looks like.
This looks cool lol. I like where this is going.
Now I will go film inside my messy garage to get the type of set design im looking for, BRB.
Now lets quickly produce my 2nd CCR video. I am gonna incorporate the main vehicle used in the film opening to continue to match the theme! (Im so talented right) Im going to have my brother pretend to be a fan boy and ask me questions as I pass by, this is gonna be fun.
The super duper cool car in the film opening ---->

CCR Script 4
How did you integrate technologies - software, hardware, and online - in this project?
I used allottt of technologies especially different software and hardware. To shoot my film alone, I used four different cameras that are all perfect for difference scenarios. I integrated GoPro's and DJI products to all of the action high speed shots as they are assessable for special mounts to get the angles that I wanted. But for software, I didn't use as high variety as I did with hardware's but I used the different software's for what they were best with. Premiere Pro of course is the main source of software used to edit this entire production. It has almost everything I could need to edit this project. I also used After Effects to create the credit graphics because it has wide Varity of effects to make the credits look cool!

CCR Script #3
How did your skills develop through out this project...
My skills developed allot. I came out of my shell big time. I was once a very introverted creator where I was to nervous to even film in public haha. Now with this being my first major production I went all out. I met so many people and had to reach out to people I was scared too such as the police department. I was developed my communication skills as well as my confidence to get this stuff filmed. I also developed a ability to set up shots super fast as many opportunities flew by extremely fast and I had to capture it. So yeah I would definitely say my skills had developed in a very good way.
