This week I continued production on my assessment 2 from home, however encountered some technical issues. I had another assessment due so I did university work from home this week to have more time to work, however I struggled to work on this class’s assessment. Because of this I was granted an extension until next week, giving me more time to work out my technical issues and finish off.

In terms of production, this week I’ve predominantly been editing my film. I encountered a lot of issues with storage space, lag and my computer turning itself on and off, so I’ve decided to try to edit it on my PC instead. I usually don’t do this because I prefer the portability of my laptop to do university work specifically (e.g. being able to work on it in class or show the teacher any work at that moment rather than waiting to email) but unfortunately to get this assessment finished I think I’m going to have to deal with it.

The main issue I’ve encountered has been trying to portray a story with minimal footage. My actor fell through last minute and was called in to work earlier than usual, so I wasn’t able to film as much footage as I would usually. I’ve been exploring a lot with how to portray a story with unrelated clips because of this, and it’s been an interesting learning experience!
