Week 11

This week we worked on our 10 min. edit. It was a bit of a struggle because we finally went through all of our b-roll. We had so much so it was a big overwhelming- definitely a good problem to have but very time consuming. We were able to get a good arc together for our film. It was important for us to know how to start off the film and how to close it- regardless if the breweries open in time or not. We have also been social broadcasting our indiegogo and I hope that, as we have more updates coming up, that amount will go up. I've really enjoyed working with my crew members and am excited to spend 2 week coming up- really looking at all the footage and spending quality time to see how we can tell this story in a fun and entertaining way :)

Week 10

This week I have done a lot of editing. We have gone live with our Indiegogo and have $160 out of $1,00 as of now. I'm hoping that we will get more and more as we get more footage and updates to show. We were going to do $1,500 but I'm glad we just stayed at $1,000. It was difficult to decide since the demographic we are going after does have money. You don't go into the home brew business if you don't have cash to spare.

I have also been editing a lot- trying to get ready for the 10 min. edit. The amount of B-roll we have is insane. We have filmed a lot and although we have great audio from interviews, most of our footage is b-roll. Zach and I were able to meet and discuss our story for the film and it sounded great on the wall- but tying it all together during editing may be a bit more difficult. Looking forward to getting feedback from this week. So proud of everyone's projects! Its really exciting.

Week 9

After spring break, Its been good to get back in the swing of things. This past weekend we filmed at the Wilmington Home Brew Supply in the backyard where people were clearing the parking area. It was so fun, everyone was in such a great mood, ready to help. Kids and even a pregnant mother was there clearing bushes. We got some editing done as well and are focusing this week on really editing our story, making sure we have the B-roll we need. We have a tone of B-roll but if there is anything we are missing. We will be interviewing Mike & Emily together coming up so that it can be parallel with John and Michelle's interview. We also got our trailer and poster up and everyone is getting really excited about our film which is great! The energy is there and its going to be a lot of fun coming up!
