In this project we learned even more about using the six shots while filming. This video could be longer than the video we filmed for the creating a document, so we had a lot more time. Since we had more time we had to switch our angle of the shot more often. Because if you watched a video and all the shots were taken at the same angle it would be boring. In this project we had our character going all over the place where in the other one our character was only in the library. So we had more action in this video which was much more fun to film! When me and my other three partners were brainstorming and sketching for this project we had so many ideas that it was hard to narrow it down to one big idea! The first and biggest thing we had to figure out was where our characters would end up. Because we didn't want to be on one side of the school then have to find enough stopping points to get to the other side of the school and still have the viewer know where we were going.

 We edited this video with Adobe Dreamweaver. It was very hard for me to edit this video.  My group shot lots of videos but with the time limit I ended up having to cut most of them out.  The hard part for me was deciding which videos to delete. Sometimes I would try to delete a video but I couldn't because there was too much of a gap between two videos.  I also had to find videos to trim so that I wouldn't go over time.  There's also the problem of after trimming the videos separately when you put them together they can look choppy,  so I would have to re-edit them to make the video  look smooth.  Eventually I got all of the videos to look smooth  but I was still over the time limit! So I actually sped up a few of my videos.  It was also hard trying to find a good speed, I didn't want it to look unnatural but I needed  the video to go a little bit faster.  After I was done editing the video I had to add audio. I found my music in finder and putting it in went smoothly.  It usually takes me a long time to find audio that I like and works with the video but luckily I found my audio really quickly.

 Like I said earlier my group had multiple ideas for this project.  Out of all of the ideas we thought that this idea would be the easiest and was the most creative.  Me and one of my other partners are both dancers so another girl in our group thought it would be a fun idea for us to dance  in the video. But the next question was how we were going to put dancing in our video.  At first we were going to have one or the both of us dance our way to the end destination.  But the idea we ended up using for our video was having someone from our group go to a dance performance, the dance performance being the end destination.  Our video started with a girl looking at a flyer for the performance on a computer in the Ecomm classroom then we went through the library and multiple hallways to get to the flex theater.  I think that me and my partners in my group cooperated very well together.  I went to elementary school and middle school with two of my partners so I already knew them very well. My other partner I didn't know that well but she was very fun and easy to work with!  I think everything in my group went very well, I don't know what I would do different.  I'm really excited to do more projects like this!
