CCR Planning: How Did My Skills Develop?

Reflecting back on production, I can see how I developed as a director and writer. 

First as a writer, I learned the format of a professional screenplay both for myself and to look good on the Production Proposal. I learned about the different amount of tabs for different parts of the script and about things like inserts.

As a director, figuring out all the elements of the film and how to put it together was a difficult challenge, but I was able to get it done.  Being in charge of the making of all the props and casting was also a first time for me, but it was pretty fun. This leaves me with tons of material to work with.

As an editor this would be my first time using Premiere Pro. I had to learn the layout and the short cuts, which seemed daunting at first but I adapted pretty quickly. Using the Lumetri Color to achieve my vision was a difficult task as it was my first time using masks to change certain parts of the frame. Not to mention, keyframing the masks was very tedious.

Where I grew the most would be as an editor, but I shouldn't neglect the other two roles I had. I think the best way to reflect on all of this would be through a commentary that recounts the entire thing. Perhaps over the film.
