 Now that Loudui and have most of the clips. We were going to start the process of editing. The last project we did we used was iMovie. We had decided against the idea of using this software again because the commercial was boring. There really wasn't much that we could do editing wise with this software. So this time around we decided to use a software called capcut. We decided to use this because since Loudui was sort of familiar with it she knew that there would be more options editing wise. Since Loudui had the most experience with this software, she was going to edit. While I would just tell her what looks good and what doesn't Most of the videos were recorded on our friend/teammate, Nene. So first  first I looked through the videos I had on my phone and seen what looked good quality wise. Once I seen the ones that looked reasonable I sent them to her.

 I’m Working on this music video project with Loudui. I decided to work with her because we are both in auxiliary together, and she is the person I know most in the class so I would feel more comfortable working with her. I think if I work to buy myself I wouldn’t really put in the amount of work I should. I feel like I drive better when I’m in a group in certain situations. Not all the time I feel like I do better in groups. Say if it was like a paper assignment, and you have to like write something I don’t think I would be able to do so well with another person. But since this is like a music video I think it would be a whole lot harder than it should be to do it by yourself. Because for say you need somebody to record the Music video if you were going to be in it. Or you would need somebody to be in the video if you wanted to record. I feel like it would just make more sense for me to personally work with another person. I also feel like for this project it would be more efficie...
