So a few weeks ago we did the BIG 72 video contest. And we worked REALLY hard. And we thought it was a good video. And one of the other ones was terrible. And we got last. LAST!
Anyway, we did the video about immigration (that was the theme) and the story line went a little like this: there were four people immigrating to Texas and it was a short video about their troubles and adventures. We spent all day the first part of the day shooting all the video. We had two cameras going at one time trying to get a bunch of different shots to add complexity to the video. I was mainly in charge of making sure we got every shot, and I wrote down all the good shots so it would save time when we were editing.
I learned something that night when we were editing. Teenage girls get a little delusional at night when they have been working on something all day. I'm really surprised Smith didn't kill us. BUT we eventually got it done. It took like 20 hours but we did it.
We did have one problem that I would like to address:
We missed a shot. and very important one at that. So now there is a black spot in the middle of the video where they were supposed to go to sleep. We definitely glittered a terd on that one.
However, we didn't have as many problems as we would have if we wouldn't have planned as well as we did. I was really glad that we planned out every single shot and had a game plan for the entire day.
Even though we were robbed with the outcome, it was a good experience in which everyone learned a lot.
