Post production of CCRs

Hello and welcome back! 

Now that I've finished filming for my CCRs I have now begun editing and let me just say, I hate how its looking :(. I'm much more comfortable with the editing process now, but I'm very concerned about the actual content and length of the piece. Though this is probably just nerves talking but I don't feeling very confident about this, and it certainly doesn't help that I'm pressed for time. Not to mention, for some reason everyone and their fucking mother decided to get on a plane yesterday because the sound of jet engines were non-stop and I'm struggling to cut them out without making the visuals look wonky.

OK. Deep breathes. We got this. I decided to use my handy dandy friend ClipChamp to edit my CCR. I cut the clips, adjusted coloring and audio, and even added a sort of slideshow segment to add to my response. I know I sound like a broken record right now, but I keep having this feeling that I'm forgetting something. 

I talked to Mrs. Stoklosa today about my concerns and she thought I was being a little overdramatic. So that gives me a little bit more confidence that I know what I'm doing. 

Any who, I filmed and edited the majority of my first CCR yesterday and I'm currently working on my second. The plan was to have EVERYTHING filmed, edited, and finalized by today but that is currently a work in progress. So since we've learned to adjust we're gonna get feedback today and finish editing the CCRs hopefully by tonight so I can submit everything tomorrow morning. Wish me luck. I'm gonna need it.

Update: I have never been more dramatic in my life. I have spent far too long editing, I have not slept nor showered and I feel like I’m going insane. However, I DID IT!!! I didn’t beat the timer and had to finish editing in Colorado, but after many breakdowns and panic attacks it is done. Thank god and good riddance.

Looking back on this blog, I'm realzing I was entirely correct to doubt my time management. And that any shred of hope I had for finishing this entire process before my flight the next morning was (excuse my french) complete delusion and straight up bullshit. 

I have screamed, begged, and pleaded with my computer for the past two days and this process has made me come to one final conclusion, god is real and he was kind enough to take pity on me and allow my clipchamp to export my projects.

XOXO,
