Challenges in Filming Blog Post

 The challenges we have in filming is everyone agreeing on a place, time, and day to meet to shoot. not everyone is free or busy on the same day. We are trying to handle these challenges by searching for a day to film and talking to our parents. We all try together to fix our problems and make time to film.  We also had challenges using props and making different lightings in the room we were filming in. 

Filming Blog Post

  Our first filming day was fun. We filmed at my house and our remaining filming schedule will take place on Sunday at 10 am where we will be finish filming our film. Our first video went well, but it needs editing and the sound improved. We need to add other special effects to it also.

Representation Blog Post

Our film is fair, and everyone gets a good role. Our representation is the stereotypical high school students of different ethnicities like Asian and Hispanic. It shows the typical students have a sleepover watching movies and joking around. Everyone gets to be creative with their role and their acting. I don't believe we need to change anything about our characters.
