CCR filming

 To create my CCR videos I invited my friend Ana over to be the host of the podcast Popcorn and Plot! We had so much fun getting ready and setting up, practicing, and recording. My mom helped us out with the filming, and we used her phone because after this whole project my phone unfortunately has no more storage left... 

It was super successful, the lighting in the clips was amazing, and the sound picked up really well. To create the podcast like setting, we worked with my living room couch. I put two decorative pillows on it, a coffee table with an orchid and some mugs on it, and a big plant next to the couch. In the frame, the couch was the centerpiece and me and Ana sat close to each other on it. The only props we used were the host's question cards I made a few days ago. They had the podcasts logo on the back and the questions on the front. Since my last blog, I've made a few more of these cards...

For my second CCR video, I went over to Anabella's house and filmed at her vanity. I explained this a little further in my last post but I used this setting so I could be at the original filming set in Olivia's room for the video. I ordered a prank box on Amazon, when you open it confetti shoots out! I wanted to do this so I could add a fun twist to the fan mail Q&A video. For the questions, I took some cards and envelopes and wrote down fake addresses and fake names on the envelopes, with the questions from the fans inside on the cards. I borrowed this cute mini clip-on microphone from Anabella to use for the video, it was broken but it added to the vibe of the YouTube like video.
