Note - I missed an important part of the scene as before Susie is meant to enter i am suppose to try and open the book but i cant. This is important because the main thing is opening the book when i am alone as Katherine (The voice) only can speak to me.

Song for Scene 5

10316651 — 2025-04-01 13:25:52 UTC

Male - Jack

Female - Susie

This was used in Scene 5 as well. This dance was done after we performed "Wow" from Work It. I did this song/dance in the Venue as it was suppose to give off professional vibes. This was done by doing it on stage with lighting and costumes.

Aimed Viewers

10316651 — 2025-04-26 16:15:26 UTC

This is aimed for teenager as i feel like it would effect the viewers of that age more. This is because its set in the world of college and also is aimed at meeting online and forming a bond over the internet. Meeting someone online could turn into a bad choice as you don't really know them to an extent. So for viewers younger it might influence them.

Performed by Jack

This song was used in scene 3 to show the state Jack was in after the interaction with is Ex (Megan). This song after performing the dance is where Susie sees Jack for the first time.

Editing Of Song -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:00:58 UTC

This hear is a visual way to see how i did the song editing on my actual video leading from the importing of song tutorial. This was an important step as my film has no talking in it so it was mainly action and music in the back ground.

Tutorial of importing songs -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:06:15 UTC

This here is a tutorial of how i imported the songs onto Cap Cut where i did my editing this here was important to know as sound was an important part of my film.

Corridor Dance -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:30:17 UTC

You can't here the dance as it was in my head phones at the time. This was because it was putting the music over the video in the editing so it wasn't really need in filming it. This was a lot the rehearsal so i was just mapping out how far the dance moves was going to take me. I didn't want the moves to take me to short or to long so i over shoot the dance studio door.

Things that didn't go in.

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:47:00 UTC

Ash Walking -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:50:24 UTC

As there is a part were ash was walking it was the first time recording this part. This video i felt was too long as in it felt like there was a big pause in the film for something so small like someone walking. I also felt like it was pointless having a longer walking scene as nothing to serious was happening. I felt like people watching would be bored even tho its a small detail.

Texting Scene -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 14:53:02 UTC

This was me trying to text while walking. I didn't really like it as you couldn't really see the messages being text. Yes it would of looked more natural to what i did with the speech bubbles on the screen but you just couldn't see the messages as good. This was also a main part of Jacks and Susie point in contact.

Final Video -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 18:01:36 UTC

This is the final video i put together for my film. I liked where it ended up as i didn't know how it would turn out switching from my last Idea.

Script -

10316651 — 2025-04-27 19:46:41 UTC

This Script isn't a normal script as it has no speech in it. So this script is the action of the actors in the short film and the camera angles of the camera in the film.
