Saka was responsible for the planning and Bagas and Nicho were disucssing together the moodboard and storyboard. We also disucussed on where to shoot. We got valuable feedback as our teacher mentioned our moodboard was a somewhat too simillar to the original music video. And we should change some parts of it.

Week 7
This is deadline week, we are finishing up everything and we are making good progress unlike our last project. This feels more organized. We had a project lesson which on Wednesday and a Theory lesson on Thursday.
TO DO: Finish Classwork, finalize storyboard.
In order to help us make sure if eevrything is done, this is my checklist:
Overall, this weekly progress was one of the most helpful things that exists in our project. From here, we are able to track down and note what we did so we don't forget incase if we want to find some references from which date in the past and we forget, we can just use the weekly progress as a pointer. It also serves the purpose of reminding us on what to do before deadline, so our projects never came past the deadline day. A challenge was that me personally, I forget to fill this in.
SEMESTER 2
This is my weekly progress for the second semester of this academic year.
Week 1
This week our teacher informed us about the due date of the whole thing (recording, blogs etc), which is Friday, the 24th of January 2025. We are only missing recordings for the final product.

Even though I failed miserably to edit, I have somewhat an idea on how to edit multicamera angles.
Problems: Recording
Solution

Week 2
This week our teacher taught us how to edit on a basic level, we were instructed to make a multicam edit in which we combined 4 clips from different angles and try to coordinate it as one video. We were also instructed to create a filming schedule in order to keep track on when to film the scenes that we are going to film. We need to start recording more scenes as the deadline is that week.
