After many hours of looking through what music would be a good enough fit for our film, my group and I finally came to a conclusion. Personally, I started by looking at copywritten music to make sure there wasn't anything that really stuck out to me. I was able to find a couple of good songs here, that I kept in the back of my mind throughout the process. These songs included ones like "Bela Lugosi's Dead by Bauhaus. I liked that the song was mainly instrumental and was slow and calm, it was scary but unique. I felt it would be a great choice for a film. I also really liked the intro to the song "Black Magic" by Backxwash because I felt that it was slow enough and creepy enough to be a close-to-perfect fit for the film. However, I didn't like the rest of the song. In order to use it in the film, I would have to cut out only the beginning part of the song. I would then have to go on and put it on a loop for the duration of the film. This would be too complicat

After the mishap that happened the first time, my group and I thought everything would go good this time. Again, my peers and I tried to make plans. It was decided to film the following weekend. This would be the weekend of the 25th and possibly the 26th if we needed another day of filming. However, it then came up that Dara and I had to attend a beach clean-up that weekend for our club. Since we're both club officers, it wouldn't be fitting if we said we couldn't participate in the clean-up. Addison and Violet wouldn't be able to film the scenes independently since they both act in the film. Therefore, it was decided that my group and I would sit down and figure out a set date for filming when everyone knew they would be able to film. After a call, my group and I decided to film on the week of the 6th. Violet would pick everyone up in her car and go to Addison's house after school. However, I didn't want to just sit around and wait until we were all able to get

My group and I were supposed to start filming at minimum one day this weekend. My team and I had planned to get started on our film and finish at least a couple of the first clips. If not, it would at least provide a feel for how filming is going to go. Unfortunately, this was not able to be successfully done. It soon came up that my peers and I had previous commitments that weekend, which were not able to be postponed. For example, my mom told me when I got home that we would be visiting my friend out of state that weekend. I would be gone from that Friday night to the next Sunday morning. This left me no time to film since it would be too complicated to film on a school night. This is because I live so far away from everyone else in my group. By the time I got home from filming, I wouldn't be able to have enough time to sleep before I woke up at 6 the next morning. Therefore, I had to let my team know I couldn't make it that weekend. However, I assumed they would still be abl
