At last, I present the opening sequence for Pestilence, by Queen Sirena Studios! A potential two-hour-long film about a cyberattacker seeking to achieve global dominance. Directing, editing, and writing this film has truly been an honor. Enjoy the opening sequence!

After I finished all of my editing and uploaded the video onto YouTube, I conducted a preview of the opening sequence with a select group of people. After they saw the opening sequence, I had them review their thoughts on it. Here's what they all thought! "Looks good" - Riley “I really enjoyed this. The phone thing kinda confused me. What language?”- Connor   “ The camera work along with the audio work really made it an entertaining film that tied me in, great film”- Jordan   “ The film was very good and incorporated some really unique shots” - Natalie “ That was goo d. it was intriguing and engaging, maybe the only suggestion I have is to make what digital phantom at the end is saying clearer, but that maybe on purpose” -Alex queincoperstt   “The concept and editing are very creative and catch your attention, great job” - Ms. Carmichael “I’m enjoying the beginning sequence and want more of the story!” - Ms. Parisi  “so so creative wow impressive” - Caila C.

So the next thing to do was to import Scene 1's shots, and Scene 3's additional shots onto the timeline. Scene 2 was already fully assembled, but Scene 3 required additional shots. So, those additional shots were promptly added to Scene 3. After that, I assembled Scene 1, and everything put together went over the 2-minute limit. Not good!

Last day of filming! Today is March 3rd, 2024, it was the longest filming day of all the others in this production. It was also the smoothest one yet but with some compromises. Jaydon got to the set a bit early and started setting up the Tech Store, dubbed "Silicon Kingdom". This part of the filming will go over the store, where Zephyra purchases a phone unaware that Digital Phantom has access to it. Later, we will film outside, where we see that Digital Phantom managed to sneak in a rather unsettling voice message in Japanese to Zephyra's new phone. Zephyra then witnesses the mall's alarm go off, after Digital Phantom gains access to the mall's network and starts to hijack the A/V system. Although the alarm itself is fake, it sounds so real, that Digital Phantom played it over the speakers just to cause panic. The Tech Store It turns out there were new set pieces in the Black Box that were available for us to use. That included some round tables and folding table
