My evaluation, which I edited in Adobe Premiere Pro, is now complete and on my blog, along  with Lester and Dom's evaluations. ^-^ 

Now I just have to tie up loose ends. :)

I Made The Deadline...

I did it. I made the deadline. Despite all the stress and worrying, I still did it.

I'm proud of myself and my group. 
。^‿^。

iMovie Won't Work -_-

So of course with today being deadline day, iMovie won't work properly. -_-

I can't edit any sound at all, which is a serious problem.

Poster Designing ✏️

Today, we began designing posters for our trailers. I never realised how difficult it was to come up with a good design! However, I like what I've come up with. ^-^

Let me know what you think. :)

VLOG FINISHED!!! *Throws party*

I finished editing the horror conventions vlog today!!! :D As I am typing this, the vlog is exporting and uploading to YouTube. :) So glad I've got it done - Lester and I are very proud of it and personally, I think it looks quite good for a first attempt at this style of editing.

If we'd had more time, there are a few improvements we could've made to improve audience retention and the overall quality of the vlog, one of the main things being a "Dom touching his hair" counter (because he was always fiddling with his hair, beard or neck). XD

Still, all things said and done, I'm proud of it and I hope it's viewed as high quality by our teachers and examiners. :)

Horror Conventions Vlog Editing D:

This editing is literally taking HOURS. D: So far, I've done about 4.5 hours. :/ But it'll be worth it in the end, and it's good practice for if I ever want to edit vlogs in the future. I've been trying to apply editing techniques that vlog professionals like danisnotonfire and AmazingPhil use. I suppose all the time I spend procrastinating on YouTube is teaching me something. XD

Lester and I have been taking turns, with Dom critiquing it as we go along. We'll have it finished by the end of tomorrow, which is good news as everything has to be finished by Monday. :O All I have to do then is finish my written analyses. ^-^

I'm nearly there. :)

Casting News :O

So as you know (if you've read our script/storyboard), we have 3 title roles - the Scientist, the Student and the Friend. After some deliberation between us, we decided to cast Dom as the Scientist, Lester as the Student and myself as the Friend, even though we tried out some other people for the roles. This is for three main reasons:

1. When Lester and I were creating the storyboards, we partially modelled the characters on our group members as it gave us a starting point for the characters' personalities, which we then developed.

2. None of the people we auditioned gave us the right vibes for the characters (this is a reflection of our opinions, not our auditionees' ability to act).

3. Dom studies drama, so he has an interest in acting and can act well, and Lester and I both want to write and act comedy sketches, short dramas etc. in the future.

Additionally, we are all available for filming at the right time without having to arrange it around other people's lessons etc. and all three of us are never in the shot at the same time, therefore there will always be at least one person to operate the camera.

Thank you to the people we auditioned and I hope you're not too offended that we didn't pick you. :P

You can expect lots of (hopefully) funny behind the scenes videos of our filming adventure, including a short clip of the read through coming your way soon. :)
