To My Group 3 Peeps

To everyone in my group,

Hello! Tomorrow we will be working on the PEC video and brainstorming for what to do. So, I realize the issues that we had before - we didn't really know how to define the PEC for the video. So, I was thinking is what we'll do tomorrow is brainstorm and try to figure it out. 

Some things to consider, though:
  • Should it just be an imitation of the PARC? 
  • We can't have history as a subject for the test, though. Mr. Clark explained that it's implied that though Mr. Weisback teaches history, and history won't be on the PEC, he is still forced to prepare his students for the PEC anyway. It's a dent in the educational system, where, in a way, the students' education is sacrificed for a single test. (Actually, Mr. Clark, I still have a few questions to ask you about that.
Here are the Group 3 members:
Erin DeSandro
Ishmael Muhammad
Gabe Castillo
Cameron Terry
Stefen Fleming
Allie Pham
Carly DiFabio
Alex Imperatore
Hugo Perez
Devon Goetze
Sam Liepe
Connor Johnson
Luke Coffey
Cassie Mancella
Brandon Roberson

Filming: 4/1/14

Today, we will meet in room 222 to discuss what we will film today. After 2 PM, the entire crew MUST reconvene in room 222. Be there!

  • Mr. Costal is coming by period 11. We will shoot the scene outside of Mr. Weisback's room in which Weisback is confronted by Lockwood and Costal.
  • PA's: we need copies of the lines for these scenes.
  • Extras: you need to wear the same thing you were wearing last week when we shot in Weisback's classroom--hoodies, jeans, etc. Be prepared to sit in the same seat. Patience, people.
  • Tyler: We can get some retakes of the opening scene. Your call.
  • Cameramen: stay out of one another's shots!
  • Directors: we may have time to get some footage of Costal spying on Weisback.
  • Sound people: We need to hear some music by Friday.
  • Editors: You are extras today. No laughing, Kerwin.
  • Art Directors: Decorate. Hang the posters in the hallway. We may have to cover up the flashing lights from the fire alarms to get our shoots. 
  • Alejandra: We need a picture of Lockwood, Weisback, and I to use for the blog. Please get my good side.
  • At the end of the day, we will discuss our plans for tomorrow's shoot.
