I had been working on my movie for almost 2 weeks, at this point. I had just gotten to the lightsaber portion of my film, one of the hardest pieces to put together. Things had been going smoothly for this movie, I had been able to edit very quickly and with many successes, something that doesn’t usually happen with my movies. I had a few scenes which I was not entirely happy with, but I could live with them. But little did I know, that all this work would be invain.
Once I had pieced together my film the way I wanted I turned off my computer. I went to bed, and the next morning awoke to a blank screen. My computer would not turn on. Realising that I had lost many hours of work, I began to panic. Where would I find time to edit this again? I didn’t even know where to begin.
Not knowing what else to, I began to edit my movie for the 2nd time. I had to start completely over. This was painful process to go through all the footage for the 2nd time. After a few hours of work, I finally completed what I had lost. I took a few seconds to catch my breath, and I played my movie. To my surprise, the editing was much greater than it had been originally. God’s got a plan for the traumas He gives you. I went from an accident to an accomplishment.
