Conflicting schedules

 Hey, blog I'm back and ready to discuss my production process and how it relates to my groups. So plans aren't always able to be drawn out and in this case, the plan for the first filming day couldn't be drawn out. My group consists of very busy and hard-working people. On the weekend my group had first planned on starting to film everyone ended up needing to prioritize other events. Firstly, my extended family had flown down two weeks prior so the filming date ended up being on their last weekend. This overlap caused my parents to disagree with me leaving for basically a whole day to Jenna's house. As I live in Hollywood and Jenna is in north Fort Lauderdale to get to her I need to drive 40 minutes up so this takes up a lot of days going and coming back. Usually, it wouldn't be a problem but since I needed to be home for dinner my parents were hosting as a farewell for the family that was leaving, I couldn't drive all the way up to film all the planned scenes the group needed to get through to and drive back on time. You're probably asking yourself why didn't you just wake up early and plan to leave earlier to make time for everything, well that wasn't possible. I had a SAT practice exam scheduled that Saturday morning which started at promptly 9: 30 am and ended around 2 and 30 minutes later. This would have caused me to be done with my test at around 12 pm and then head over to Jenna's which would have left me with not a lot of time to film with the group. Taking my whole day's schedule into account, I was unable to film on that weekend. However, I was not the only one with a busy day. Carliegh had forgotten she had a tennis tournament which takes up her whole Saturday. She texted the group the night before letting us know she would be unable to go film and that she was sorry for forgetting she was busy. Seeing the text, I was relieved as I would also be unable to film. Jenna was very understanding of Carliegh and my busy schedule and proposed to film the following day, Sunday. However, Natalia then reminds Jenna she had stated before that she works on Sundays and would be unable to film on Sundays in general. This caused the group to agree on filming the following weekend as nothing had stuck to the original plan. This was unfortunate but since my group is very understanding these problems wouldn't cause fighting or conflict. It is nice working with a considerate group and makes me feel very good about the group's chemistry within the project. Additionally, this problem wouldn't really affect the time to complete the filming. As I planned very in advance, knowing my groupmates were all very busy, I was not stressed about not having enough time to film. Anyway, see you next time when hopefully I will have made some progress within the filming stage. Byeeee.

 Hey everyone!!! Here again and ready to talk about my group. So I’m sad to announce that Kazmin and the girls, my old group, is disbanded. I have Jenna and Kazmin in my class so part of the group could be reunited but fortunately we have two new members!! My dear friends Carleigh and Natalia are the new additions to the group. So now it will be all girls which means more girl power. A little bit about them is that they are both great friends. Carleigh is a tennis queen that is always by your side for anything. She’s so pretty and looks like a model because of her unique hair. It’s a strawberry blonde and her queen eyes compliment it very nicely. Her work ethic is very strong as she always has straight As. Natalia is also very helpful and maintains good grades. She is a little on the sassy side but she will make sure we get all out work done efficiently and quickly. Her experience in filming from her yearbook class will contribute a lot to our group. She’s a great assets for our gr...

What's upppp. So Kazmin and the girls filmed the whole commercial on Saturday, October 8th, 2022. I will explain the process and what I did. Firstly, all the group members met in my community and went to the gym. Jenna, Kazmin, and I were all wearing athletic clothing and I brought a colorful shirt to change into when the commercial is in Kazmin's dance world. Savannah and Kazmin both brought two pairs of AirPods and their phones to turn the music on and off and film the commercial. At my community clubhouse, where the gym is located, the group practiced the dance scene and choreographed it near the pool. Although Jenna and Kazmin are a lot more coordinated than I am, I got the dance down. It was my idea to practice outside of the gym first so the scene would be swiftly executed. Then when the group was ready, the filming began. Savanah filmed the whole commercial and Kazmin, Jenna, and I was the people in the commercial. In the first scene, Savannah used her iPhone 14 pro to f...
