Resolution

 With the final due date coming near, I thought I would reflect on the whole procces of the making of "Dear Diary;"

It all started with research. It gave me an idea of what film openings have, how different films introduce the narrative, and how they set the tone. It helped guide me to what I wanted to produce and convey. So I started planning. Drawing out the storyboard, looking and making props, creating the music, making a script, and then, filming began.

This definitely was the hardest part. One our third day of filmig we realised the pacing was off, the shots felt rushed and we had too much for a two minute opening. So we decided to redo our storyboard and keep only the important stuff in. We got my mom's professional camera gave the new footage more of a cinematic feel and this time the film truly felt overall better. 

Yeah sure, we could've kept the old footage and worked with what we had but taking the easy way out would've meant getting a cheaper end product, and it would've been a shame since the actual project ended up being so beautiful.

I'm truly grateful for this project because without it I wouldn't have know I was capable of contributing to making such a beautiful project.

And also a special thank you to my father and sister, Pablo Moreno and Trinidad Moreno Pamio, for collaborating with me and helping me on my CCRs.
