Scheduling (scary)

One of my biggest concerns for this project this my team and I's schedules as we are both extremely busy especially these first few weeks as we out 3 weeks out from out school musical 'Mamma Mia' and we have to stay late at school pretty much every day leading up to the show. That being said, out main goal with this schedule is to keep ourselves as organized as possible without having to grapple with too much at once especially with our extracurriculars. 

 2/23-3/1:

• 2/23: Have project option and general idea DONE and set in stone
• 2/25: Work out more details for our genre, target audience, etc.

(Blog posts: Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday)

3/2-3/8:

• 3/3: Create a schedule a filming schedule, tentative dates and reach out to people to be featured in the film.

A Level Portfolio Project- The Beginning

 Hi Cambridge!! I'm so excited, and so scared at the same time, to be starting on my portfolio project. I have so many ideas yet none at all at the same time. I feel like the thinking monkey meme. 

For this project I'm working with Audrey (yay!) I'm super excited to work with her as she is one of my closest friends and we are both very creative people and are very good at building off of each others ideas.

Moreover, she and I have many similar interest as we both do theatre and have a lot of the same friends so coming up with a story we both want to tell won't be too difficult for us. Currently we are deciding between doing a documentary or a short film for our portfolio project. 

Personally, I am more interested in creating a short film as I felt as thought last year, for my AS level portfolio project I spent a lot of my time wanting to build from the story my team and I had created for our excerpt. Additionally, Audrey and I have previously worked on a documentary project together and I would to get the chance to try something knew. A short film gives me an opportunity to do just that, to tell a story in its entirety and to get to go into the details of it all. 

I have had a few ideas for a short story but I wont share them just yet to not get my hopes up but if we choose to go in that direction I'll be sure to let you guys know.
