Group Dynamics 

    Almost at the end! But not quite… my area of work and focus is really just getting started! I loved this project, because Aden and I split the work evenly, in my opinion! My partner Aden Mangones did the majority of the directing and planning out the film! But for the particular details of our film Aden included detailed mis en scene and creating intricate shots. We both knew he was the more intricate one which he used for his directing role. I did the acting as the main character, and he had a role as the killer's hand. When we began planning, we brainstormed and planned the story together. He even came up with the title sequence! I did the majority of the physical drawing out of story boarding, but the hard work of ideas was split between us. We had so many good ideas while brainstorming!

    Moving on! When it came to directing he was the best! Since I was acting- the majority of the actual directing was done by Aden. He took the time to set up the proper composition of scenes and ensure details were not out of place. For instance, the house walkthrough he ensured the spilled coffee on the counter with papers was surround with enough “empty space.” In addition, he matched scenes, set up lighting, and did the capturing of the entire film.
    Since Aden did the a good amount of the planning, brainstorming, and directing! I will mostly be doing the audio and visual editing on HitFilm. I have already began this process briefly. After beginning to piece together on HitFilm. I have notified my partner and we have set up another film day for a few shots we overlooked the first time around. Which we are planning and executing this film day together!
