Im really glad that we filmed that one day and filmed the majority of it. I enjoyed filming with my group there really un to hangout with. There were many laughs and excitement going on when we were and when we weren't filming. I think we may need to add a little more to the film and fix a few things but we did start editing so that's good. I don't think I could've asked for a better or funner group then mine. It's also nice to get to know them and see them again since before corona started. This week we took a break because it was spring break. I'm glad we had spring break because I really needed a break from so much school work that they were giving us. We have all been busy for the past weeks so 1 week of relaxing was what we needed. It felt amazing enjoying time to myself for at least a week. We were planning to film last Monday but I wasn't able to make it because for one I honesty didn't know we were going to film that day, I found out last min and...

The day is here, finallyyyyyy!!! We filmed today and it went really well. We had an early release day today so that gave us a lot of time to film. I started off by going to Isabel's house which was like 40 mins away because there was so much traffic. It would've been faster through the I-95 but there was an accident so I would've been even longer. I got there safe and sound thank to god so that was good. We planned to film around 2 but since there was a lot of traffic for me and I had to wait for my mom to get home so that she can take care of my little sister so I got there around 3:45. The lighting outside was bright so it was really good for filming outdoors. We started with the outdoor filming first so that we could get those out the way. There were a few distractions while filming such as laughing a lot but we got through it. We had a lot of laughs and smiles and overall had great. We finished most of the scenes which is really good for us since we are usually busy. We...

You're probably tired of hearing this but I got to say it again. We didn't film once again sadly. The good news is that we are planning to film this Thursday so just 3 more days. I believe that we will do really good when we start the film since we don’t like to waste time. As they say time is money and it really is considering the things that we will have to give up to be there to film. Right so it’s not easy for you to just say alright let’s film today, like no we have to schedule it. Everyone is busy with there things and can’t film and you can’t do anything about it. The goal in life is to be free and healthy. Freedom to people can be different from freedom to another and it’s like that with everything. For me freedom is not working for someone else and being wealthy and someone else might say “well I’m already free I live in America”. In order for you to reach the top you have to learn to know how and what struggling is so you can learn from that and be the best person tha...

Once again we did not film anything. We already knew that this week we weren't filming due to being busy. We all have been very busy lately. I have work everyday after school and it's something that gets in the way of having time on m hand left over. One of my partners has been in school physical and has softball practice after. She has had a game for the past 3 days and has gotten home late because of that. She is also having a game today and tomorrow and she will be getting home late. Sadly there's been a lot of test lately with my other classes and studying is required so there's not that much free time that me and my partners have on our hand. Not to mention the amount of homework we get is crazy. Everything is just to much like not only do I have work and school and homework but I also have this project to worry about. We are going to have to film this upcoming week around Thursday. One of my partners has a wedding this week in Kissimmee, Florida and that's lik...

We did not film yet due to things not going so well. We where planning on  Filming yesterday but everyone was busy. Not only did I have work but one of my partners was on a trip because it was her mom’s birthday. We were all also busy with school work. My other partner had a softball game today so we could film today either. The plan is going down the drain we are hoping to make a better one. She also won’t be able to film throughout with week because she has games. So far we haven’t filmed anything but hopefully by next week we can start filming. It sucks that we are all busy with our own thing all the time because we want to film. Isabel with her sports, me with work, and Esther with her piles of homework she has we all have things to attend to. I hope that we film the whole thing within a week so that we can have time to also edit it really good. Meanwhile we wait for next week I think we will improve our game plan in the film itself because planning when to film is out the wind...

To start off this I wanted to say that the time to start filming this was on such a short notice we didn't have time to get together. We didn't film today also because we are planning our schedule out in order for us all to have some time to film. I have work and school and Isabel has also school and practice that she has to attend. We are trying to make this work as of right now. With this whole corona situation everyone is just so busy. The good thing is we are planning out our schedule so now we have an idea what dates we want to film. I feel like this film is going to turn out good even though we are busy. I told them that if I needed take take a day off of work to film I will but we have to do it also a day where we are all free. Being a student and working is not as easy as I thought it would've been. Since I would to pay for my things I don't always have all the time in the world like how I used to have. But we are all getting older and we all have our responsibi...

Planning: Storyboard

Image
In the first page it starts out with a black screen which in the film will include asynchronous sound of a bell ringing. The following scenes will then introduce the main characters and setting of the film which will also include dialogue. The next page illustrates when the kids arrive home and notice that their mom is missing. Here they see that their house has been trashed and hear a scream signalizing that their mother may be in danger. The next few illustrations basically show how the kids continue to search for their mother and confirm that she is no where to be found.
