Reflection for Emirati film

My group’s emirate film was a really interesting experience. I started off with entering a group were I barely knew any one in my group. We were a group of six students and we had to regroup in one of our teammate’s house which none of us knew where it was but after a while we managed to regroup there. The group was constructed as me being the group leader and with the help of two of the other members as film directors. My main job in the film was to edit the film which isn’t as easy as it seems but I also had an important speaking role in the film which was the role of speaking about; how important the U.A.E culture is. The film took us a day to film which isn’t very long and another day for the editing. The editing was done as introduction, important ancient artifacts and then why our cutler is unique. The film ended up being a success and all of the needed parts were filmed and edited.
