Week 9: Whispering to Our New Audience

This week was interesting! We got a lot of positive feedback from our audience that we weren't really expecting. A LOT of people loved the Bean Boozled Challenge, partly because we had so many funny people in it from the cast. I love watching it because it always makes me laugh and now that Cinderella is over, it reminds me of what a good time I had with the cast overall. Since Heather and I were extremely busy this weekend (and yes we are always busy so don’t hate on me for always saying we are busy during the week) we almost didn't have an idea for this week. Luckily, at the beginning of the project, we had made a list of possible videos that we could make so we chose one off of the list. We did the Whisper Challenge and it was anything but quite! The challenge is to listen to music really loudly with headphones on and try to guess what the other person is saying. It was really funny because the person with the headphones on couldn't tell how loud they were being! Check out the link below to watch this video! Stay tuned for next week. We have a good video planned for next week that has something to do with Matt and Chris! And did I mention that we now have 48 subscribers and 1,207 views?!?!? Thanks for you continuous support!

Jelly Beans and Show Week and Editing, Oh My!

This week’s video was probably the most entertaining to film. Heather and I did the Bean Boozled Challenge, which is a game that has 10 of each color jelly bean, but two flavors of each. There are either really good flavors like Tutti Fruity and Berry Blue, or there are awful flavors, like Barf and Moldy Cheese. It’s a dangerous game of chance with your taste buds. Let me just say that the bad flavors were awful and I seemed to get all of the bad ones!! The stairs were really busy during the period we were filming I guess because we were interrupted 4 or 5 times… Heather and I decided it would be cool if we took this challenge to rehearsal and had our cast members try it out. It was hilarious to see our friends’ reactions and we even got our assistant director to do it! Because we had so much footage, taking the time to edit the video was hard since I’m so busy this week and it was my turn to edit. I hope our audience responds to this video positively and that we receive more viewers because we’ve kind of hit a wall when it comes to new subscribers… I’m not quite sure how to improve on it since social media networking isn’t doing the trick anymore! Make sure you check out the link down below!! Also, come see Cinderella!! Until next time!

Week 6: Busy Best Friends

Hello again! This week, Heather and I filmed the Best Friend Tag! It was a fun time discovering what each of us didn't know about the other person. Heather did the question research this week and found some pretty odd ones, like what's your best friend's ideal shirt. If we were keeping score, I definitely won.. :) We used Heather's father's Nikon Camera and the picture came out some much clearer. The only downside to her camera is that we can't flip the screen around so we can watch ourselves and make sure we're in the shot. Lucky, that camera fits on my tripod so I think we'll be using that from now on! Editing was a little rough this week since we were both very busy with our school musical. Heather struggled with finding a time to edit and we put up the video a little later on Friday. I'm a little nervous because next week we have rehearsal every day so I'll barely have five minutes to eat food! Unlike most weeks, we have our video planned well in advance. I won't give it away, but let's just say we'll be eating something in our next video.

Week Five: Humming and Rushing

This week was busy! Heather and I have been occupied with school work and the musical at our high school. This made everything feel a little bit rushed, but it ended up working out in the end. We filmed the Humming Challenge with Brian and Lydia on Monday. We did it 9th period with shortened periods because of a two hour delay so we were pretty pressed for time.. Filming it felt rushed and not as fun as it usually is because I was stressed about finishing the video before time was up. It was my turn to edit this week and boy did I have a blast with that. The video was actually a lot funnier than I thought it would be! Brian made the video... Well...  Let’s just say he made it a bit more...interesting.. And we even had another special guest, but you'll have to watch the video in order to find out who it is! I'll leave the link down below! Anyway, the editing process still takes a while, but it's becoming a lot more natural since I know what I'm doing now. We still haven't been able to sit down and figure out the details, but Heather and I are going to try to have our next video as a mash up followed by more special guests in the next week!
