Guess who's back...?

Welcome back Gems. 

I'm back and better than ever. So for all the newbies let's catch y'all up.

My name is Makenna Jewels Ricks born on December 20th 2007 making me a Sagittarius. And there's a few things you need to know: pretty in pink is a phrase I live by and music just might be my lifeline. 

From a very young age I have always loved to read, a trait I still posses. The feel of paper in my hands is an unbeatable feeling. It has always been amazing how some can create such a complex world with only ink, paper and their imagination. Emotional transportation to anywhere or any time I like. The Book Thief, Six of Crows and Legendborn are my top 3 favorite books of all time. I highly recommend. 

Baking is a passion of mine. I love desserts, the sugar rush not so much. Chocolate bars may or may not be my poison of choice. By hey we all have our things.

My first time editing was the commercial which was a fun learning experience. However I'm very excited for the music video because I love music and songwriting. The way feelings an emotion can be felt and interpreted by others. Artists such as Taylor Swift and Conan Gray's songs make me feel like they're writing about my life. Like their songs, Dear reader and People  Watching. Because I am convinced it is about me. So being able to create that feeling for someone else is like I have the same power the singing did when the song was created. I'm breaking all my Spotify playlists for this one.  So y'all better buckle up because if there is one thing that can get me hyped is a good song. 

That's all for now, keep singing, I mean shining Gems.

Sincerely, 

Makenna Jewels <3

CCR

  Hey I’m so glad you called. So… I can totally answer that. So for our movie, our project, the fair game, we used voice over to allow a clearer sound for our movie. So when we were filming we had a lot of sound defects being that the place was so popular and it was so full and there was a lot of people. A that means there was a lot of sound and noise coming through. we used voiceover using voice memo to allow for a cleaner sound. So we all recorded our individual lines and we recorded them separately. and then we sent them to each other, therefore, they could be layered and merge together like a proper conversation. so to allow that, it couldn’t just be you saying every single line just like just running through it, it wouldn’t flow like a proper conversation. so we had to film line and that would be the end of the recording. film the line stop end the recording. another line stop. send it to each other therefore it could be layered with the other person’s so it can a conversation...
