I have been feeling a little discouraged since I realized I have to record more footage and a little stuck since I cannot record until the end of next week, but I know I have to keep going and focus on what I can do now. 

I am gathering all the sound effects, such as the music and the car scratch, that I will use for the opening. 

For the music, I had 6 different options... I am very indecisive, I know it is an issue. However, I asked my friend Ayami for help, and she said she liked the fourth one the best. So I decided to add it to the beginning clips and while I was watching I realized that I could include clips of Maia driving to school to introduce her character and show the contrast between the two through their driving habits. 

I like this sound because it gives off the vibes of starting something new, like a new chapter, which is what is happening in my film opening so I felt like it was fitting. I will have to adjust the length when I add Maia's clips and I want the cuts to happen with the beats of the music so that is something else I will have to edit later. However, seeing my project slowly come together is exciting and is encouraging me to stay positive until I get the chance to record the new clips next week. 

I also found the perfect scratch sound and it took me a little while to get the timing right, but I finally did. I got the scratch sound from the website Freesound and the music from is Bensound, where I found all the other options I was considering too, as they are all royalty free.
