Trying to organize the film

 

I'm so thankful that my computer has this feature where I can split the screen into four tabs. It helped me so much with this because I didn't have to switch between tabs. But my group ended up showing a rough cut to our class for feedback and to sum it all, things didn't go as planned. Our rough cut was about 16 minutes long. And since the scenes weren't even in order it just made it 10x more confusing. It even left me confused. But I've realized it's because I didn't tell Karnia (our editor) exactly in what order certain shots and scenes were supposed to go. 

So, once she told me about how confused I decided to make a google document narrowing down what each scene is. I specified as much as I can, so it was clear for her. I included little details about what certain shots mean. I wrote everything in order so when she goes back to edit it's easier for her as well. And we decided to rearrange things around because the film was just not making scene. 

Instead of the letter being read later in the film, I thought it would've been better to start right after the first scene and have the voiceover of it playing for the rest of the film. I think it makes more sense since it touches on things that are being shown in the beginning of the film. However, I did have to break up the letter and signify what line will correspondence with what scene. I think this might've taken the most time since I had to keep going back and forth. It was definitely challenging but I was able to do.
