Amanda- Journal Entry March 24 2020

As a prompt in our last CAS class of 2nd trimester, we wrote goals we had for our time in quarantine in a google slide. Here I wrote that I wanted to continue stretching while I was at home and Miss. Amy gave me the idea that I should do a video about the stretches and explaining them. Two days later I decided to film it but it was harder than I thought. It turns out having good lighting in my room was difficult and struggled to find enough area so you could see my entire body. The problems continued coming when I started editing the video. I realized then that I had accidentally cut the video short so I only got on camera the exercises from the lower body. A bit disappointed I continued to edit the video and tried my best to give a quick explanation of each exercise so it fitted in the frame. By the end I was very pleased with the work I had done. The music and the effects I included looked well and overall the video looked well done. When I was downloading the video so I could save it in a google drive to later upload it to the wonderment page I saw how the video was cropped in a strange way that didn't allow the explanations I wrote to show up on the screen. I wasn't able to change it back so I kept it that way. That made me learn that I should do several trials and errors to see how the final result would look like.
