I Cannot Believe I Forgot This…


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.

      For the final task, I decided to work alone. I have a few reasons for doing so, one of them being that  I enjoy working alone. Working alone rather than in a group has its benefits and downsides. For me, its benefits include being able to ensure that work gets done and that I am on schedule. Because I would be working alone, it is up to me to get virtually everything done in a timely manner. Although this does seem like a huge burden to put on myself, it does the opposite. It forces me to be efficient with my time, as well as staying organized and on top of my work and deadlines. Working with other people can be hectic and group members schedules may not always align. Schedules not aligning occurred quite often during previous projects. Unaligned schedules would make everything from filming to editing to researching much more difficult. Another downside to working with people is the possibility that a group member is not doing their fair share. This could resul...
