No One Likes a Third Wheel, But Now We’re a Car!

     For the previous projects, I have continuously worked with Joshua Newell and Aidan Jones. I have found that working with them has produced consistently good work. We are able to communicate well and our schedules coincide, allowing us to get a lot of work done. While all of this is true, our group decided to add another member to the mix. We have decided to team up with Randy Sweeting.

    There were several reasons why we wanted to add another member to the group. Most of them came from our last project. When filming the music video, we had trouble splitting the work load. It was a bigger project than the first, and we wanted to include more actors. This posed a challenge to the three of us, because we would all have to be present on camera. Additionally, we wanted a different perspective. The three of us agree on a lot of things. As a result, we sometimes miss out on better ideas or more efficient practices because we are so likeminded.

    The addition of Randy to the group solves all of these issues. Based on his previous projects, he is a very hard worker with fresh ideas. He has issue with pulling his weight and does not cut corners. Now that there is four of us, we should have an easier time producing the project from start to finish. The research process will be faster and more diverse with so many minds working on the same thing. Working with a new person will give us a different perspective on camera angles and directing choices that can be a benefit to the production.

    We are still in the process of deciding what role each of us will take on. I will mot likely do most of the editing on the project. Joshua and Aidan will continue to act, giving directional advice when needed. As I have never worked with Randy on something like this before, I thought it would be best to give him some leeway on what he wants to do. All of us will contribute to the writing and directing of the piece, but the smaller details are yet to be decided.
