In my excitement of finishing filming all the necessary scenes and even the refilming of certain scenes, two very important scenes of the opening sequence somehow escaped my mind. I truly cannot comprehend how I let this slip my mind, but I unfortunately did. I skipped over filming the scene where I am writing in my journal. I also did not record the voiceover accompanying the clip. I have no idea how I managed to skip over filming such an important part of the opening sequence. I believe it was my excitement to finish filming paired with me skimming over my storyboard that caused me to skip over this scene! Thankfully I realized I had accidentally skipped over the scene before it was too late. I was beginning to edit the opening sequence. I was piecing all the clips together, as I usually do. I was finishing putting all the clips in order before I added in any transitions or any further editing when I noticed something strange. I was missing a good chunk of time from my opening sequence! I spent a good deal of time completely confused. I was looking back into my camera roll frantically. I assumed I had misclicked and missed adding in a clip into iMovie. However, to my confusion, I couldn’t find this missing clip. I began to panic, searching through every single video clip I had until the possibility that I had forgotten to film a clip dawned on me. I grabbed my storyboard and went through every clip I had on iMovie, and realized I was missing the very beginning of my opening sequence. Since it was earlier in the day that I had caught this mistake, I was able to film the scenes and record the accompanying voiceover with the last of the bright pale sunlight. Although I did have a good laugh once I realized what I had done, it did scare me quite a bit. I have learned to not skim but to carefully and slowly look through each clip and compare it with the storyboard, to ensure things like this do not occur.
