Sunday, Feb 27 - I went over to my cousins house to film all of the scenes. The first thing we did was plan out her costumes as I wanted the color temperature to change over time in the final music video. I filmed all of the scenes with her in around 1 or 2 hours. I would make her do certain movements and then change into different clothes and we would repeat this process. We filmed in her room. I did also take a few MCU shots that I wasn't too sure I was going to use but I took them just in case.


Monday, Feb 28 - I began editing the video today. All I did was put all of the clips, that I has shot yesterday, into a timeline. This took some time since I kept trying different arrangements to see how the video would look. I also began the color grade on the video.


Tuesday, Mar 1 - I continued editing the music video today. I finalized the color grade on the video. I spent the most time working on the title sequence since I wasn't quite sure what to do for that and when I figured out that I wanted to do the effect in the final video, I wasn't sure how to do it. After I finally figured out how to do it, I worked on and finished the other text on screen.


Wednesday, Mar 2 - I was just checking to see if the video to see if I had made any other mistakes or whether or not I wanted to change anything. I realized that I was missing the teal-ish TOS and I needed to retime the TOS effect because it was too fast.


Saturday, Apr 16 - I was trying to figure out ways to redo the montage style scene without being able to refill since my actress would no longer be able to film. I also designed a fake

calendar to help the audience visualize how long she has to complete her work. I ended up figuring out a way to redo the montage style scene by stabilizing the footage. It didn't work as

well as I wanted it to because of the way I had filmed it.


Sunday, Apr 17 - I tried stabilizing the footage again using a slightly different method but it still wasn't better. I also took out some of the color grades since I had a few too many and the colors looked confusing. I did also remove all of the text-on-screen that showed how long till the work was due. I re did it since it would take too long for me to edit all of them instead of just making brand new lines of text.


Monday, Apr 18 - Didn't do much today, just re-edited small sections of the video and though about different way to go about making the time stamps.


Tuesday, Apr 19 - Re made all of the time stamps. I thought of this idea where the text rotates in a 3 dimensional space to reveal itself. This way, I could change the text whenever i wanted if it felt necessary and I could also retime the rotation animation if I needed to as well. I did also change some of the text colors from the previous iteration since I thought some of the very difficult to read. Other than this, I re watched the entire video to make sure everything was proper.
