Slowly but Surely

Maggie and I have been working (not-so) diligently on our DIY project. Right now we’re kind of feeling lazy to do it, since finals are next week and we haven’t been able to find time other than our Fridays in class. Nevertheless, we’ve made progress and we are almost finished with our part of the script!

Even though our project is titled “Guidevisement in Ten”, I think our first video will be much shorter. We’ve done a lot of research, but honestly, the FAFSA is really easy to fill out! We can’t really go into more detail without boring the students, and that would be counterproductive.

Next, we plan to give our script to BBN so they can start filming our first video. Once next semester begins, we want to get rolling on this.

Scriptin’

The past few weeks have been full of writing and empty of video (but that’s ok!). First, we gathered our research that we got from online sources as well as a helpful booklet Maggie picked up from our college and career center at school. Then we wrote the script, trying to make it as funny and entertaining as possible. Next we meticulously edited it (and we’re pretty much done). I think our next step is to submit it to Mr. Z and ask him if it will work for the BBN. If we’re done with our part for the script, then the next thing to do is start video production. If not, we’ll go back and make it better.

Maggie and I aren’t experienced script writers, so we know that our final draft won’t be perfect. However, we’re open to suggestions by the BBN, since honestly, they’re the ones who know what they’re doing.
