Welcome back to your FAV blog channel!!! In today's lit post, I'll be discussing what could have been😓... if I were a pro, rich movie director with a crazy good production team!

Honestly, when it came to actresses, I wouldn't have had it any other way because the whole point of the film is to capture REAL friendships and how difficult it is to leave them behind. Although, I GUESS if we had to go big, perhaps some teen actresses who would match our energy and make the emotions feel real would be nice... As for costumes, I truly wouldn't change a thing. I feel like the outfits we wore in the film perfectly capture the essence of a teen, considering we are teenagers ourselves! Our casual clothes perfectly represent a realistic outfit you'd see our kind of characters wearing and are literally just our everyday clothes. Most of our shots were filmed in my house, which I believe is what gives our film that extra homey, real feel. However, if we were to include some other flashback scenes, maybe some scenic locations such as a forest or tropical beach would have made things more adventurous 😜!
As for things that I would have definitely included if this was high-production, it would be a professional videographer and camera! Don't get me wrong, our quality is MUCH better than if it were shot on a phone since we used a real camera, but a higher quality camera might've made things a little cleaner. For example, we would lose focus very often, so maybe the videographer and professional camera would help us out with that issue😉. Another thing I would've wanted to include is a more 'beachy' kind of car like a convertible or JEEP. Those could have made our car scenes, in the beginning, look so much cooler!
Overall, I am extremely proud of our film and think it's exactly what it NEEDS to be. While I'm sure a bigger budget could make it look more “professional,” the little imperfections, are what make it feel like a real teenage memory, making it so much more special! If it were too perfect, it wouldn’t feel the same.
