The air was filled with the noise of our laughter. This movie trailer that we were creating, was going to be the best thing this world has ever seen. Gabby, had the lead role. She was wearing her fuzzy, cookie monster onesie. The camera on my computer beeped three times and clicked. Gabby pretended to be chomping on the cloth cookie. As we re-watched the video all of us exploded into laughter. We laughed until it brought tears to my eyes and my stomach hurt. We calmed down but kept laughing. We reshot the scene many times. Finally it was perfect. We opened a new computer window for the next scene. It was going to be Ava, Emilia, and I going on a journey. The camera clicked and started recording. Before I could even stand up, a big, purple, blob sped right past me. I blinked and shook my head. I looked over at Emilia who was just as stunned as I was. Before I even had time to think about what just happened we all erupted into uncontrollable laughs. Ava had thrown her purple sleeping bag at us. Our honking laughter sounded like a group of crazy geese. For hours we recorded more videos. We jumped on top of each other and smacked one another with pillows. We pretended to look at maps that had something extremely amazing on it. Our facial expressions were horribly dramatic. They were way too exaggerated. We gasped and opened our eyes wide. We clasped our hands together from joy. It seemed like a rollercoaster of emotions had rammed into us. We re-watched the whole trailer from the beginning. The adventure music set the mood very well. Our trailer deserved an Oscar.
