Editing During The Pandemic



       This Virus has literally ruined everything and changed so much for everyone academically as well as every other way. We aren’t supposed to leave our homes unless completely necessary. Our film is not finished and we have bot been able to get in touch with one of our group members.  He was supposed to be the one to edit the film for us and rearrange the scenes. We no longer have the equipment to film, it is all in our classroom. We know this project still has to get done, so we’re going to use our phones. The other 2 members of my group are 11th graders, as am I. We planned on receiving our AICE Diploma this year. We've been receiving updates about moving forward regarding exams from multiple sources. Everything is just so confusing, all we can do now is try our best to complete our assignments.

        We have progressed so much in this class together and individually and have come too far to simply give up now. We were told that we will still be graded, regardless of an actual exam. At first, we were going to just submit what we had so far, it didn't look as if we'd have another chance to complete the project that we worked so hard on. It was evident that we really had no choice, for the sake of our grade we had to.

         We cut more of what we already filmed, using iMovie and the photos app on our phones. We basically stretched our film and scenes. Then, our teacher sent us a message saying we received an extension to when everything was to be submitted. With this wonderful news in mind, we are continuing to film for the last time tomorrow.
