Editing the Commercial

Hello blog, today we were supposed to start the editing process but things didn’t turn out exactly like planned. Let’s start from the top, we all walked into class, prepared to start the editing process because we had a huge vision for the commercial. We weren’t exactly confident about what we achieved on our filming day, so we thought today was the day we would get to sort of redeem the commercial. Anyways as soon as we got into class we figured out that we had an extra filming day but sadly we weren’t aware of this so we didn’t bring any props. Re-filming was not going to happen so we just sucked it up and got on the computer. As soon as we log onto the computer one of our other classmates asked us to switch because they uploaded their stuff to the one we were occupying. Honestly we were kind of already frustrated because we couldn’t find our film. Which caused us to panic a little bit, but regardless we still moved to let them operate. Next we tried another computer but because we were in such a rich to upload it last time, we couldn’t remember who’s account or which computer we put it on. On top of that, the computers take a good 5 minutes to log on so that was more time wasted.

So now we were stifling with finding our commercial and we were struggling with the fact that pinnacle studio wasn’t on the computers. We decided to move across the classroom because the other group was crowding us and we wouldn’t be able to sit together. Also we thought that maybe if we tried a different computer our file might pop up. It didn’t pop up, we still couldn’t find it. On top of we had to wait for the computers to fully load so our stress level was high. I was worried that if we lost it then that would be a F for our whole project; I can’t afford a F, my goal is always to aim for an A, so imagine how scared I was that our file was lost. The computer finally loaded and we still couldn’t find our file but we weren’t going to give up yet so one of my team members moved back to we’re we originally were. We tried to strategize, the day we dumped our commercial we logged into three different accounts on three different computers. So we went back to our spot and identified the computers we logged in on, then we tried to access all three accounts. Of course we still had difficulties.

While we were trying to do all of this we were still trying to blog, so class was a little hectic. Our main focused switched a little. We were now mainly focused on trying to blog because it was due at the end of the class. Once you miss a blog grade then that grade will be locked forever so we were trying to make sure this blog was in on time. After our previous computer was still a fail, we tried to access the other one. That was going to be a bit of a issue because someone was using to upload their commercial to google drive. We had to wait it out, eventually they allowed us to use it so we were just hoping this would be the last time we would have to do this. We had to wait for the computer to restart which took about 3 minutes. This time we tried the “online test” account. that was also a fail, so we tried my account but we still couldn’t find it. We were hopeless so we decided to call the teacher.
