Reshoot Blog: The Plan

Now that the peer review is over with, it is now time to reshoot. My group members and I planned to reshoot the week of the 15th, however the unexpected happened. Due to the Covid-19, commonly known as the Corona Virus, epidemic, school closed for that week. When first hearing this news my group members and I thought that it would be even better if we filmed during this week, but unfortunately we were given false hope. The government issued a state of emergency. As a result, we had to self quarantine ourselves, limit our time out, and not be around big groups. Even though it became a bit more difficult, we didn’t let this stop us. On Monday, March 16, 2020, we received a notification from our teacher. This notification said that, we should remain on schedule, in terms of our blog due dates, film submission, and Creative Critical Reflection (CCR), just in case since there wasn’t any word from Cambridge as of yet. On Tuesday, March 17, 2020, we planned to film on Thursday, March 19, 2020, and try to get as many scenes shot as possible. However, we got the news on Tuesday that school will be closed until April 15, 2020. Following this was another notification that said, all state wide tests we canceled and any requirements that are needed to be met in order for us to advance to the next grade or graduate will not be taken into account. My group members and I all had one question. What does this mean for our AICE classes and their exams?  We were confused and left in the dark. One thought that occurred was that we’re were pretty much done with the movie and everything else. Though, later that day we received a notification from our teacher that everything will go as planned according to the due dates and exam dates. Upon hearing this, my group members and I made a plan to film Friday, March 20, 2020. We suddenly became more optimistic. We have high hopes that everything will go as planned.
