Major Change in Our Scripts

    Yesterday in class me and Eugenia made major changes to our script, thus making us change several shots and aspects of our storyboard and plot over all. As the shooting date comes sooner and we kept going over our script, and challenge that it might be too long, we decided to act on it. We were scared on changing our plot, because we thought that the more we kept adding/removing form it, the less clear our image will be and our project will feel more disorganized. However, we felt this change was truly necessary in order to have a good video. Basically, we completely removed the aspect of the plot that deals with the sister's father's death, or the fact that it was Maddie's idea to fo on a hike. Instead, we are simply showing two sisters with opposing personalities going on a hike together. 

   Above, you can see all the lines we put a strike on top of. We decided to leave the cut lines there and put a line on top of them rather than completely deleting them completely from the document. We thought this was a better idea in the case we might get confused with our structure or wonder why something we wrote looks the way it does, so we will be able to see what lines used to be around it. Regardless, we edited the lines around them to make the lines flow smoothly, this was just a precaution we took. Without the dead father part of the plot, I'm feeling more relieved because I had started to become worried our plot was simply too complex and big for a film opening, and that it was starting to look more like a trailer rather than an opening. I also feel like these lines will be way easier to act, considering neither me or Eugenia are experienced or good actresses.

  What a ride this has been! We are finally at the end of the road. This project definitely challenged certain skills and tactics that I did...
