A Day in Silver Spring
For this challenge, I decided to do a montage of shots I filmed while roaming around my neighborhood. I compiled a good list of shots throughout the life of the assignment but once I went in to edit the shots, all of them were gone. Apparently, something happened to our computer and all my shots were lost. Now, I had a total of one day to both edit and get new shots. With the limited time, I decided to use my phone instead of my camera to film. I filmed the sky in the morning, the drive to Sunday School, some kids at recess at Sunday School, the drive back from Sunday School, a local field in my neighborhood, and then the sky at night. After I got all of these shots, I started editing them using VideoPad, but then the program decided to spazz out. I lost all my work, yet again, and I had to start a new project with 3 hours until this assignment was due. Lastly, when I finally fixed all the glitches, all my text overlays stopped working. Therefore, I had to take snapshots and insert them in. The fact that my computer was acting extremely slow didn't help. This is not my best work, but it was the best I could do given the circumstances. I really enjoyed the idea of the challenge, but I regret that I wasn't able to embrace it. Now I fully understand the meaning of, "What can go wrong, will go wrong."
