The main project this week was the reshoot and editing of the Deposit Box video for Stetson Admission—a process that began two weeks ago. The first version of the video didn’t meet the standards set by previous Stetson productions or my own expectations. Fortunately, after wrapping up Hatter Saturday coverage, I had the opportunity to revisit and improve the project.

For the reshoot, I approached the process more deliberately. I created a detailed shot list, brought backup microphones and cameras, and tested lighting at the new location beforehand. This preparation paid off, especially with the help of two collaborators and a higher-quality camera, which significantly improved the visual production value.

Having learned from the challenges of the original version, I paid special attention to capturing clean audio—crucial for a video centered around a single speaker. These adjustments made the editing process much smoother and more efficient.

In the end, the video met both my expectations and those of my supervisors, and it was officially approved for use.
