Video 5.2. Group Project Shoot

We took about 4-5 hours to get all our shots done. It was a rush to shoot while the sun was up as we started around 3pm. After shooting, the video and audio was synced by Qiao Yin, Minjoon, Shin Er and Andy. Once they completed audio syncing, I merged the clips, adjusted the colour and audio as well as added background music.
