  Media Studies: 2 Minute Film Opening (youtube.com)

 During this whole journey there were many mistakes and errors that happened while creating and filming this film.  For starters, we started filming late, we were supposed start filming during spring break, but nobody every followed up on it or reminded another one of us. But thankfully we made it through it.  Filming In the middle of filming, we sadly had to recast one of actors in our film, mostly due to her not being her to film when we needed to. There were also times when we were filming, we forgot to do certain things, which made what we recorded not turn out right. A mistake that also happened is when we recorded the camera quality wasn't similar to the other clips, so we end up having to recolor it. It didn't look bad, but it wasn't like it wasn't noticeable (we ended up not using the clip anyways). Editing  Editing was honestly the worst part of this whole process. When we did edit the clips, it sometimes didn't sync, or the clip was to long that all of it ...

According to StudioBinder, "Film distribution  is the process of making a film available for audience viewing. This means having a film be purchased or rented by a distribution company, which will then take the steps of marketing and displaying the film".

 Today I finished editing all the clips together, which almost 2 hours. 

Today we started editing our film. We edited the second half of the film. We used an app called CapCut, a free editing software that allows editing for pictures, clips, and videos.   It took a couple of tries to put the clips together, but it turned out okay since one of my group members, Fergie C, helped out a lot, through her own experiences doing her own edits.  When editing we didn't add as many transitions because it ended up looking like a PowerPoint instead of film. It's not the best but it looks decent.  One thing I noticed when editing is the audio. There is a lot of wind so you could really hear it. Me and Fergie did try do reduce the wind, it's not fully gone, but it's not as apparent. I think once were fully done filming we will edit more on it. It was also pretty easy to add in audios. There is also a part in this edit where the visual and color looked different and we tried to fix to the best of our ability, but it looks similar but not the same. 

According to StudioBinder, "Post-Production  is the stage after production when the filming is wrapped, and the editing of the visual and audio materials begins. Post-Production refers to all of the tasks associated with cutting raw footage, assembling that footage, adding music, dubbing, sound effects, just to name a few. The post-production process is highly collaborative, across a few months to even a year, depending on the size and need of the project".
