  • Post 28. Editing

    Upon finishing our research and planning, we moved on to the editing part of the production.

  • Post 27. Case study- My moon my man(Feist)

    For this post, me and my time wanted to make a case study together (which is why it is written exactly the same for all three of us) talking about why we chose to use this song in our film opening, and how it ended up being such a major part of it, due to

    In this post I decided to talk a little about the filming sessions that we had on day two of filming.
