Re-shoots Might Not Happen Soon

   This past week has been very interesting, for the entire world I would say. An outbreak of a deadly virus has plagued the world as of recently. It is known as the corona virus or COVID-19. It first started out in China but quickly has found its way to the U.S., and even worse, our own county. There was talk about school getting cancelled for a few days but on Friday afternoon, our superintendent made an announcement that school would be cancelled the week of March 16th. Unfortunately, this was the last week of the third quarter. A lot of students and teachers were unhappy about this due to not knowing what would happen with grades. However some good news was that next week would be spring break though so we wouldn’t be missing anything if we had to miss that week too. This has impacted our re-shooting schedule though. Everybody is under self quarantine as of right now. The government is telling that we must practice social distancing for the time being. This means we should have the least amount of human interaction possible. This will supposedly help to combat the virus, or at least help to stop it from spreading so quickly. However, this means that we can’t do re-shoots for a while. We’re not sure what we can do about this and we’re scared for the future of our film project. For now, all we can do is edit the footage that we do have. I was planning on editing the footage either tomorrow or sometime next week but unfortunately my computer has broken. It will not start up and when it does, it just crashes. This is the worst time for my computer to be broken because after spring break, there’s a good chance that we may have to online school. If I can get a hold of a computer though, I will definitely work on editing some footage. Maybe I will even get a new computer, but I’m not sure at this time.

Here is a computer model of the Coronavirus or COVID-19.
