You Should Take a Break!

 No! I Have to Edit!

    So, as you can tell I have been editing! I know right! So fun! But seriously, I have been trying to finish the edit of the film within the next couple of days so I can start focusing on my critical reflection of the project. 

Lately, I have been trying to work on the animations of the film since I have finally been able to import them into Adobe Premiere Pro. To make things go a lot smoother though, what I have done is slowed down the animations and duplicate some of the drawings in order to have to spend so much time having to draw every single frame of the animations. 

    At first, I was scared that if I slowed the animations down it would look funky and weird which would mean I would have to stay up super late at night in order to finish the animations for the project. But once slowing some of them around 80% and 70% it actually doesn't make a huge difference which I was pretty happy about! 

Music:

    I have been struggling to find music for the scene of the dad with Julia and Bobby towards the end of the film, but I am determined to find the perfect song and if it does not come along, I have a great plan. 

In the past I have used Garage Band as a great tool to make music for my own personal films whether it was for school or a personal project that I had been working on. The app has a tone of resources as it sometimes has already built in tracks for you, you just have to play around with the different instruments in the app including piano, drums, guitar, and more. The platform has helped me so much to the point where the song I made for a personal project got selected to the Orange and Blue Film Festival at the University of Florida this weekend. All in all, Garage Band is amazing, and it might be a resource I will turn to if I don't find a song that fits best into the scene.  

Social Media:

    

    Lately, I have also been working on the social media A LOT. I feel that I still don't have enough posts on of the characters so this weekend I will definitely be making more post but, I thought it would be a really cool thing to show the audiences a little bit about the crew. I started off with the director and will probably post both actors tomorrow. I might also be posting more stills of the characters to demonstrate their personalities and the type of people they are. Stay tuned!!!!
