While we are still in the filming stage of our assignment we realize that the deadline is creeping up on us, which is why we decided to conduct both at the same time. While Naeem and I film, Awcro and Josh will begin cutting and editing scene which we have already filmed. The filming process is something we are struggle at the most, which is why we are in this position. The majority of our scenes has already been filmed and is currently waiting to be edited. There is one major scene which is still pending to be filmed and that is the party scene, which is the hardest to conduct. The reason for why this scene has still not been filmed is due to the cast co-operation. We cannot seem to find a time when everyone is available to come over and act as if they are having fun at a party. This scene is very important toward the overall plot, seeing as this is the event where both main characters make contact with each other. It is also the scene where we transition perspective from main character # 1(Neeraj) to main character #2 (Naeem). This scene is planned to film this week and once that is done we can push our focus towards the editing stage. We, as a group, realized that no matter how much you schedule something; there will always be an event or an obstacle that will stop you from staying on time.

The editing does not seems to be an issue at all, seeing as we know which scenes need to be kept and which ones need to be deleted. We are also watching tutorials on how to do advance editing on Adobe Premiere, such as lighting and color saturation to make the video seem as if it were done in a studio. We have also been trying to figure out how to create a montage on Premiere because it is something we wanted to use in our video to give it that "wow" factor. I think that putting a lot of time into editing can be the key to a successful video, because it shows how much time you really put into making it. Editing can be very helpful in some cases especially when certain scene need to be brightened. Due to the fact that we did not have any professional lighting we are relying on Premiere to help up get that effect without ruining the overall picture.

There is going to be more that one editing stage for this video. The reason for that is because we need to view the video several times after the first editing stage to see if it is well worth submitting. Our goal is to finish the editing a week before it is due, this is so that we can view the video every so often to see if something is missing, or even if certain scenes need to be redone. Having one week of time to make changes will be necessary to make sure that our video is polished and ready to submit.
