Lessons Learned

Hello. This blog post today is going to be about my project and the lessons I have learned from it. I would have to say that the most interesting part of my project for me would have to be filming the b-roll. There was just so many things at the remains of the hotel that we could film. We got a lot more b-roll that we needed, but its much better to have lots of b-roll than to have no b-roll at all. There were so many amazing things to film at the hotel and we got a lot of it. We only had one chance to go on the tour and we used that one chance to focus and make sure we did the best that we could.

The biggest roadblock that my team and I handled would probably have to be the due dates and turning everything in on time. Although we did our best to plan everything, we still couldn't turn stuff in on time. We would either turn it in the day after or we would have to stay after class to finish it. Luckily, our teacher accepts late work as long as it's not something like a week late. Turning things in on time is definitely something we could all improve.

In my opinion, the most valuable part of the filmmaking process would have to be editing all of your footage and finally seeing all of it together in one piece. To me it just shows that all of your scheduling, planning, and filming was all worth it. You put your all into it and you made an amazing video that you are proud of. I just honestly love that feeling of accomplishment you get when you put that very last touch.
