Canva Nation please rise

What's up blog. I was absent again (still sick) so we didn't meet to talk about script changes. However, M and J did take another stab at social media and we decided to use Canva to simulate a social media page rather than awkwardly pumping out posts on a practical Instagram page. This also allows us to be flexible with our dates and change and mistakes or errors we catch along the way. Making a real page maybe would be fun later on if we actually post our film to the public, but for the sake of out portfolio, sticking to Canva seems to be the move.  

Home page.
M and J found a template that looks like an Instagram page viewed from a mobile device (phone screen) and imported our bathroom wall graphic we made previously. This will be used as the account's profile picture and a pinned post at the top of the home page. The way our Canva is set up is so that the first slide is an image of the account's home page with posts line up grid style, while the rest of the Canva slides would expand into each post with their captions and comments included. 

Created by lifting drawings off our original graphic onto a new background.

Some ideas we have for these posts are "Meet the director/producers/actors" including a headshot, more promotional posts with the date or title on them, release date posts (counting down), and behind the scenes. Hopefully some can be done over break, and finished once we get shots of the actual film.
