errr Scheduling?

 Today my group got on a video call to discuss how we plan on splitting up the time we are going to dedicate to each section of the project.

One major issue is that we all have a huge competition coming up called STN, which basically is taking a whole week of time from us. Luckily (or not) its next week! Meaning that because its early on, we'll be fully in the preproduction stage, so it wont be interrupting the production itself. 

So ultimately, our plan is to break up the work in 2s. Were givinf ourselves 2 weeks to finalize scripting, storyboarding, casting, and scheduling, 2 weeks to film, and 2 more weeks to edit. This is simple but I think it will be the most effective approach, especially since the timeline neatly converges to allow for the 2nd week of filming to hit square on spring break!

I think this schedule will definently give us a good shot at making something were proud of, but well just have to see...
