Behind the scenes

 Post production 

    Hey there! Today I was just finishing up some touches in my editing process, and a LOT Of things came up. You see after recording our opening we had to edit it. Meaning we had to remove any extra footage we didn’t need, shorten it, add audio to it , add extra foley sounds, and possibly but not confirmed yet, some special effects.

    I honestly couldn’t imagine how troublesome the extra footage was, but honestly It was so worth it. I’m so excited for the final product and I honestly believe that we’re getting more and more closer to the final draft. There are however some bumps in the road. You see, we haven’t been able to record Vicky’s mom again for the news channel scene, or record her extra dialouges which has lengthen dramatically our post production stage. You see, she’s been away for work and having her away means we haven’t been able to re-record that. She told us she’ll be back for NEXT weekend and if lucky maybe even earlier. Having this in mind the instability of this and the situation has threaten our recording. We beileve that if she’s not here by Tuesday, we will just have to continue without her and use another actor. 

    Anyways we can’t stress about that so much since we should strive forward for now. We began editing more seriously today and discussing the sound effects we will add, and record most of the dialouges. The problem we’re facing now is whether or not we want to include background music. I feel like it loses a lot of the dystopian environment in the film and it will lose its realistic approach. In most dystopian movies they don’t contain any background music but since in our film there’s a lot of scenes where there’s little to no audio and we’re not sure if that silence should stay like that. Finally, we concluded that it much better and realistic to leave it as is and to move forward. 

    All that’s left is to get the voice overs from Vicky’s mom and reshoot that ONE scene and we can finally finalize our project! AHHH IM SOOOOO EXICTED!
