Personal Project- Absorb

I shall be producing a personal video project before I leave for America in the summer for camp.

This follows from my previous post on things that could go wrong even though you plan ahead, so I am attempting to create a short video based on the idea of Inspiration.
It is the story of how a celebrity has influenced a young youth to pursue his/her dreams and the hard work that he/she are doing to get there.

I am working with my friend Namara Williams, who shall be featuring in the video and it is a simple story about how a person's determination will help them succeed their dreams. The idea is solid right now, so now I am in the process of booking out equipment and finding locations for the filming.
I shall be seeing this work from the beginning till the end which is the editing process.
We have already decided what sounds are needed and the soundtracks for the video.

I have tried to plan as much as I can ahead of time such as borrowing equipment and making sure that locations are available.


However, the last scene will be hard to shoot in my opinion as I shall be using the high speed camera to capture certain movements and also this scene is meant to represent a dream that Namara is having so I want that idea to come across visually.

Doing this short video will help me explore more filming and editing skills as I am thinking of looking into how to composite videos.
I am excited for this personal project, it will also teach me better organisation skills which will only get better with more personal projects that I do.
This gives me the chance to do what in my mind I want to and see if it works, so I am experiencing this as a stepping stone.
