 The first day of filming was alright I got a few clips. It was hard to find a empty spot on the beach so I just had to settle with one that wasn't so cluttered. I had to do so many takes

 Hi my name is Leandro Cruz, I am a senior in high school right now and I took AICE Media Studies because I wanted to explore what media studies is about and what type of careers I could get out of it. I was born and grew up in Florida and I like to play soccer and play guitar. I go to Fort Lauderdale High school and have been through many things going through all my Cambridge classes and passing them. I want to become a better student and to feel how it is to be a editor and producer of my own film. When I first got into this class I was a little worried because there were many kids in the class. And I didn't know anybody in that class so I was weirded out at first.

It was a little hard to keep the camera steady while walking in the water so it took multiple tries to get it perfect. Then I had to dip my phone in the water for a second and which was really hard because either it was dipped in too fast or i stopped recording before I put it in the water. It took about 15 minutes for me to get the shot right. But I finally got a clean shot that looked pretty nice. After that I started to run into problems; first the go pro wasn't turning on and that was a big problem because we needed

I went to the park and tried to find a good spot to film. I found a spot with a lot of trees and nature around it. I started by standing next to a pole and looking sad. Then immediately got up and looked happy lip-syncing at the start. Then I danced a little to show the happiness in the song. I made some props to represent the animals in the video. I found a tree that was small enough for me to put the puppet on. I then put the elephant near the camera to make it look really big and used the zoom on my camera to show how small the fly was. I then put in the ground. And Filmed the birds in the sky.
