Class was actually really fun on Monday! I enjoyed meeting people from different schools and getting to know their work ethic and skills. Communication was key in making these films and I feel our group was able to get a lot of ideas on the table and we were able to successfully decide on what we wanted to do. There was room for a lot of creativity in this project so it was fun to see how a group of people who do not know each other could come up with something funny and entertaining.
It was difficult to fulfill everyone’s ideas with the amount of time we were given, but as a team, we agreed on what would be kept and what would be tossed. It was also difficult to try and just get the film done without being a perfectionist about it, especially since I was working with other people. It was a nice challenge to try and create a film with new people in two hours. I think that is something all of us as a class should be proud of. Another difficulty was that not everyone knew how to use Premiere, so trying to communicate editing ideas was tricky, but we figured it all out.
Overall, I really enjoyed the assignment and was excited to already start creating something. I cannot wait to work with the rest of the Lehigh and Lafayette students whom I still do not know.
