CCR Production

    Since I have my ideas for my CCR's, I have to start thinking about how I'm going to film them. Both idea in my CCR's require editing a background. I've done this before but the quality wasn't so good...

    This week is a very busy week. I have to film my CCR's, edit them, edit my film opening, and so much more. Okay lowkey, I keep telling myself I'm going to film today... but I might not. NOT because I'm lazy (yes I am) but because I have so many other things on my plate. 

    What I know so far is that I am going to be filming in front of my closet. It's not the best place to film but I don't have anywhere else. For the award CCR, I will be wearing a floral dress that I wore to my brothers graduation and formal makeup (What is formal makeup..) Now for the Dora CCR, uh I don't have her wardrobe.. I have her purple backpack though! 

    I should of been practicing my lines the day before so... since I don't have my lines engraved in my mind, this process is going to take even longer. Sigh. I think I want to film my (I don't want to film any) award CCR first. This CCR has NO breaks. All I am doing in this video is yapping. I think I am going to print the script on a little card so it helps me and it will also go with the idea of the whole award winning as a lot of people have a little script of what they are going to say.

    For Dora, I'm a little scared. I have to find the perfect background pictures for each scene. I might have to use my favorite app, Canva, for this project.

Update

    It is 3/19 and I have not filmed anything... Trust me, it was not because I was lazy, I have been busy all after school. I will be starting tomorrow as I am busy after school today. 

    I lied.. it's 3/21 and I just finished filming both CCR's.

Filming

    Okay, so the first CCR I filmed was the award show one (The last 2 questions) and lets just say that I'm glad it's over. Before I started filming, I had to shift some things in my room around as I think I threw away my tripod a long time ago... I thought I wasn't going to find the right angle as I needed to stack many things on top of each other so I could place my phone, but I got it to work in like five minutes. Since I was "winning" an award, I needed an award! I looked around my room and I found this plastic hand that holds my bracelets, so I used that. (After I filmed, the "award" was barely in the shot😔) Since this CCR was a speech, I needed to say everything in one take. Maybe I should've studied my lines a lot more... 

    I am not posting this blog until I say this.... MY STORAGE WAS FULL!! When I went to check the footage after I filmed, it said "Storage full." I started to fill with rage. I went to look at the clip to see where it ended off and oh my gosh... At the end of my script, it says "Thank you so much again for this award." THE CLIP ENDED AT "Thank you so much aga-" Two seconds... two seconds was all I need. I wasn't going to submit my footage like that so I went to reshoot it. It took some time but I finally got it!

    Now for the next CCR! This one, I was less stressed about since it didn't have to do one continuous line. I started filming my first line and when I went to check the clip, I realized that I was missing the purple backpack!! How could I. Thankfully it was only the first clip without it! So many lines that I had to reshoot... I was getting irritated. Additionally, Dora speaks Spanish in some of her lines... I don't speak Spanish.. so I hope I didn't mess up those lines! Not too too much happened with this CCR, I mean, I was just praying that someone wasn't going to walk into my room as I was filming😹. But yea, I'm just glad I'm done with filming... I mean... I was procrastinating it a lottttt. (Also praying that I don't have to reshoot any scenes)

Horrible Filming Setup

Before I end this blog, can I get a round of applause for the dress😍😍

Okay byeee (Time to go edit😖)

Just What I Needed

    So you thought this was a goodbye huh.. well I wish it was. I was just about to start editing and as I was looking for my video... I couldn't find it. Turns out, as my storage was getting full while filming my Dora CCR, I accidently deleted my first filmed CCR. Yup... Even deleted it from "recently deleted" So, with nothing else to do, I had to reshoot it. After SO MANY takes later, I got it. And... it isn't as perfect as the first one😔Welp... I think you just got a preview of my life! So bye now! I will be crying on my bed :)
