AICE Media Studies

     As I sat down to finish my project, I felt excited to wrap things up. Editing had been tough at times, but I was determined to get it right. Working on the last part, I struggled to make sure everything flowed smoothly, especially with the music. Editing the end was tricky. I had to be careful not to make it feel abrupt or disconnected. One big challenge was blending the music without it sounding rough or sudden. I had to make sure each part flowed into the next smoothly, making the ending feel just right.      Even though it was tough, I kept at it. I tried different ways of editing, testing each until I found what worked best. It took a lot of patience, but slowly, I started seeing progress. Finally, after many tries, I got it. Watching the final version, I felt proud of what I'd accomplished. It showed how hard work pays off. Going through this process taught me a lot. I learned how to solve problems and keep going even when things get tough. These are lessons I'll carr

     Filming with Savannah and Maya was so much fun, so after our shoot, the three of us decided to go back to Tantou's house and do homework together. While everyone was busy with homework, I focused on editing my video. Even though I used Adobe software for my last project, I didn't feel confident enough to use it all on my own this time. Instead, I chose a different software that I'm more familiar with. We went to a small food place in Las Olas after finishing our editing and homework, and guess what? We saw a famous person there!      It was a nice surprise and made our outing even more exciting. We quietly observed the celebrity from a distance and couldn't believe our luck. After a while, we plucked up the courage to approach them and even got a photo together. It was a memorable moment that added to the fun of our day.      Back at Tantou's house, we chatted about the celebrity encounter and shared stories about our day. It was nice to relax after a busy day

    On our second day of filming, Tantou and I asked two of our friends to help out. Savannah and Maya came over and pitched in with filming and setting up. We all chatted, did some homework, and hung out before we started shooting. We shared jokes and talked about old times while we got everything ready. Our friends stuck around the whole time, giving us tips and lending a hand when we needed it. Having them there made the day more fun and less stressful. They were very helpful, and honestly made the filming experience a lot more fun and enjoyable. Them being there made it a bit less stressful honestly. When we wrapped up filming, we said bye and made plans to hang out again soon. It was a great day with good friends.

     Tantou and I got together at my place to begin filming my project. We planned to tackle her project next time. Before Tantou arrived, I spent time creating the props needed for the opening scene. It was a bit challenging to make the board for the scene, but I managed to do it using thread and glue. We filmed about half of the scene before Tantou had to head home. Although we didn't complete it, I'm eager to finish filming the rest. Working on the project with Tantou was enjoyable, and I'm excited to see how it turns out. We made sure to take breaks and have snacks while filming. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed. Tantou offered some helpful suggestions for improving the scene. We took our time to get each shot just right. Despite the interruptions, we made good progress. I'm grateful to have Tantou's support and assistance on this project. It's inspiring to see our ideas come to life on camera. We discussed our plans for the next filming session. I'm a

    When I went to print the photos I needed for the board, I found out I was out of ink. It was frustrating because I had just been to the store to buy the materials, and now it was too late to go back. The photos ended up printing all messed up and blurry. I decided I would buy more ink for the printer tomorrow. Don't worry, though! You'll still get to see the finished product when the project is released. It's just a small setback, but I'm determined to make it work. Getting more ink will solve the problem, and then everything will be back on track. I can't wait to show you how the board turned out once it's all put together. Despite this hiccup, I'm still excited to share my project with you. It's been a labor of love, and I'm proud of what I've accomplished so far. Thank you for your patience and understanding as I work through these last-minute issues. Tomorrow is a new day, and I'll make sure to get everything sorted out. Stay tuned fo

     The most important thing I need to make for my opening sequence is the board. I want to have a corkboard with red strings connecting different photos, like in movies when characters are planning something. I went to the store and bought a corkboard, red string, and thumbtacks. Luckily, the materials didn't cost too much. When I got home, I started putting together the corkboard. First, I figured out where I wanted to place each photo. Tomorrow, I'll print the photos and attach them to the corkboard. I'm excited to see how the finished prop will look. This prop is really important because it sets the mood for my opening sequence. It gives a hint about what the story is going to be about. Making the board is a careful process. I have to think about where each photo will go and how the strings will connect them. Even though it's a lot of work, I'm happy about the possibilities this prop brings. It's a way to show the story I want to tell in my film. As I work

     I haven't actually planned what I wanted to do with music. I was so focused on every aspect of my opening sequence that I completely looked over what music I wanted to play in the background. If I had to pick a song, I would probably like to use Emotions by Brenda Lee. I think this is a good song to use as it doesn't have so many lyrics that it distracts you from what'll be going on in the scene, but it also has just enough lyrics to give a mood and aura to the scene. Hopefully everything goes well!      I'll need to make sure the music fits the mood of the scene. It's important for setting the tone. I'll listen to the song a few times to see how it matches with what I've planned. If it doesn't work, I'll look for another song that does. I want the music to enhance the emotions the scene evokes. Maybe I'll even try different songs to see which one feels right. It's all about finding the perfect match. Once I've decided on the music

    T antou and I are excited to help each other with our projects. Though we're not working together on one, we're still lending support. To make our opening sequences better than our music video, we're planning and preparing more carefully this time. We want them to be great. I visited her house to plan out the media equipment we'll need. We want to be ready for filming our scenes. We discussed what cameras and lights to use, making sure we understand how they work. Every detail matters. We brainstormed ideas to make our sequences stand out. We're eager to try new things. With our plans in place, we're feeling more and more excited about the projects. We can't wait to get started. We know we'll need to work hard, but we're up for the challenge. Together, we'll make something amazing. Supporting each other makes the process even more fun. We're a great team. By working together, we're confident we can make our projects even better than b
