CCR RESEARCH 3rd question

 For the third question, how did your production skills develop throughout this project? For this project I learned how to edit completely by myself by looking up youtube videos on how to use adobe, however, I also used iMovie at the beginning since it was the one I already knew how to use. I also included composition in the clothes the characters were wearing, when the film started and it was still daylight the four girls were wearing four right colors that represented each of their personalities: Annie was wearing pink because she is sweet and sincere, and she was also playing soccer since she is the sporty one, also the film began with her since she is the main character of the film. Emma is wearing green as she represents security that's why she is the one carrying the luggage and organizing everything. Charlie wears blue as it represents her driven personality which is why she is the one driving as well. Lastly, Maggie wears orange as she is trying to balance her love relationship with her friendships, as well as a form of freedom and encouragement since she is stuck in that relationship that even though she wants to leave she needs the encouragement. During filming day we had some trouble since Ana Handal had an emergency and she arrived late on the set causing us to lose daylight that was very much important during the opening scene as it was important for the first scene to e as luminous as possible in order to mark the contrast between when the supposedly fun girls trip was starting and the tetric and scary trip that it will turn out to be, this inconvenience was then solved when editing since the clip of Maggie talking was edited with more lighting. Another obstacle that occurred was that Markham park the place where we were supposed to record was close so we had to improvise and went to the Emerald Estates park in Weston, but there were kids at a birthday party making a lot of noises and that was also edited with adobe to reduce background noises. In addition, we could not find a lot of the camping equipment so we had to improvise with beach stuff and luggage. Lastly, another super important part that had to be adapted was the initial main characters, there were supposed to be three girls and two boys but the two boys could not participate because they were not available during filming week, so the characters had to be adapted to only girls which at the end resulted in a good way.
