Filming CCR

Both of my CCRs were filmed at my house. Today I will discuss the production of my first CCR that I filmed by myself focusing on questions #1 and #2. 

When I got ready to film, I realized I had a problem: I don't have a tripod! My teacher does offer us tripods to borrow, but unfortunately I forgot to ask for one... I had to improvise a stand for my phone, so I glued my phone to an upside-down blender standing over a pile of books. It was great.

Then I started filming. First, I filmed myself, recording all the parts where I'm talking or reacting to the talking blog. To film the blog part, I screen recorded my Mac while typing the text. 

In the end, even though I didn’t have a tripod, I found a creative way to make it work. My setup with the blender and books turned out to be a good solution, and I was able to film everything I needed. This experience showed me that problem-solving is an important part of the process and I ended up having a lot of fun filming.
