Production Halted
As many of you know, the recent Covid-19 outbreak has stopped numerous activities and disturbed daily schedules. Not only has the virus recently intruded into the state of Florida, but school has been suspended for a week. Now public health officials are cautioning us to not catch and spread the disease by social distancing. Social distancing is the term used to describe the process of lessening the contagion possibility by keeping humans home and as far away from each other as possible. This process is aimed to slow down the infection rate and allow our healthcare system to adequately care for those suffering from critical to severe Corona symptoms. Due to this, filming, editing, and meeting up as a group has been difficult as going outside of one's home is only meant for a must-need basis. Prior to the shutdown due to the virus, we had planned to re-shoot some scene coming off from the peer review we had done weeks back. In some scenes, especially the two shot car ones, the lighting was not the best and we wanted to fix that by scheduling another filming day. Instead, schools suspended for god knows how long, and we are advised to self quarantine. In reality, the best thing we can do from home is try to reedit the footage from home. Trying to sharpen the cuts and transitions is a must. Designing better title cards is another aspect we can work on. All in all, these past couple of weeks have been a hassle and a drain on productivity. We hope that this pandemic blows over or at least we're able to mitigate and contain it in the states so that normal daily life can continue.
