 After I re-recorded some scenes for my final task video because I needed to correct my mistakes when recording a few of them. My mom helped point out what mistakes I made in different parts of my video. My mom was a good judge for this video because she doesn't know what it really is about. This makes it so that my mom would not be a factor of bias. I still needed to edit my video some more to make it look better. The Opening sequence takes place at night. Since the film happens at night, I have to prepare to record at night on the weekends when I have free time. My Opening sequence for my final task is about a person named Jack and a hooded figure. Jack wears an orange shirt and blue jeans and The hooded figure wears a Raincoat and green pants. Jack uses a flashlight as a prop and the hooded figure uses a shovel as a prop in the film.  My mom has helped me a lot with this project and has helped me record clips for my final task video. She would help me record these.clips on a Sat

I allowed my mom to peer review my final task video, which I worked on for a long time. I was working on this project for about 3-4 months with my mom assisting me to help with recording. I asked my mom to help me peer review this project because she didn't know anything about it which meant she wouldn't be a factor of bias. She helped to point out some mistakes I made in my Final task video. These mistakes that I made were minor but still needed to be fixed. The Opening sequence takes place at night.

 I finally chose someone to peer review my Final task video, which I have been working on for a while. I chose my mom to help critique my final task video. I asked her to critique it because she didn't know anything about the assignment so she wouldn't be a factor of bias. She said she wouldn't mind watching my video to point out some strengths and weaknesses. She was going to critique me on parts of my video that I should fix and what I did good on.

 I've been spending the last few months finishing my final task assignment, which was to make an opening sequence for a movie. I am the only actor in this opening sequence because I am working almost completely alone. My mom is helping me with the filming of the video because I couldn't find anybody else more capable. My characters are The Hooded man(antagonist) and Jack(protagonist). Jack wears an orange shirt and Blue jeans while The Hooded man wears a Raincoat and green pants. Also, The Hooded figure uses a shovel as a prop, and Jack uses a flashlight for part of the film. The filming process took about 3-4 months to finish. Our filming date would have always been sometime during the weekend when my mom and I aren't that busy with work or homework. Since, this film took place at night these recording sessions had to happen at night which made scheduling for a time to film a little difficult. Most of the time on the weekends filming would begin after I was done with work
