GRANDMA JEAN: Okay, girls!
Let's watch it again.
[♪♪♪]
GRANDMA JEAN: Rafia,
your sister is so clever!
RAFIA: Seriously!
She just threw the blanket up
and, poof!
Changed into her salwar kameez!
HARPER: You know who would love it?
My dad.
Ooh!
What if I made a video like that of me
and send it to my dad!
ALMA: Sa-weet idea, Harper!
RAFIA: Totally! We can help!
GRANDMA JEAN: You know what?
You can use my phone to make it!
HARPER: Thanks, Grandma!
I already know what costume
I want to change into.
ALMA/RAFIA: Wow!
HARPER: Tada!
Isn't my robot costume amazing?
My dad helped me make this.
RAFIA: Whoa! Nice!
HARPER: Thanks!
ALMA: [robot voice] Let's make a video for your dad.
Beep-beep-beep!
HARPER/RAFIA: [giggles]
HARPER: So... how do we start?
ALMA: We gotchu, Harper.
We've made lots of videos before.
RAFIA: Uh-huh. First,
we get everything ready to record.
HARPER: Got my robot costume
and my Grandma's phone!
ALMA: And we can use this blanket.
ALMA: Do you remember what to do?
HARPER: So, I throw the blanket up
and change into my costume,
right?
RAFIA: Yep. That's what my sister did.
HARPER: Got it!
ALMA: Okay and...
action!
HARPER: Ah!
ALMA: Cut!
ALMA: Hmm,
maybe you should practice
putting on the costume
beforewe make the video?
RAFIA: Yeah,
I can time you so you get faster.
HARPER: Good idea.
HARPER: Okay.
RAFIA: Ready, set... GO!
RAFIA: Three.. HARPER: Ah! [struggles]
RAFIA: Four... HARPER: Oof!
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight..
HARPER: [out of breath] Done!
RAFIA: Eight seconds!
It's your best time so far!
HARPER: [robot voice] Thank you.
KIDS: [giggles]
HARPER: I'm ready to make the video now.
ALMA: Ready?
HARPER: Uh-huh!
ALMA: And...
action!
HARPER: Ugh!
I'm still not fast enough.
Maybe your sister had help?
ALMA: Ooh, like a friend?
RAFIA: I'm a friend! I'll do it!
RAFIA: Harper,
you throw the blanket up
and I'll hand you the costume.
ALMA: Great idea, Rafia.
ALMA: Action!
RAFIA/HARPER: [struggles]
RAFIA: Nope.
That didn't work.
RAFIA/HARPER: [struggling] ALMA: Got it?
HARPER: Not yet...
RAFIA: Can you move your arm like -
RAFIA: Ahh! HARPER: Whooa!!
ALMA: Whoa!
RAFIA: Oops... Sorry.
HARPER: Beep-boop
A little help?
RAFIA: [effort]
HARPER: [muffled] Yikes.
Rafia? Alma?
I can't see!
ALMA: Cut!!
KIDS: [sighs]
ALMA: This isn't working!
HARPER: Maybe Safina's faster '‘cause she's older?
RAFIA: Nah.
I think she just has more
practice making videos.
HARPER: I just wanted to make a fun video for my dad.
Why is this so hard?
ALMA: Harper looks frustrated.
I am too.
Why doesn't our video look like Safina's?
I gotta think about this...
SAFINA: Here it is!
ALMA: Safina's video was ah-may-zing.
And we thought it would be so easy to make.
But it's not...
ALMA: Nothing we tried worked.
HARPER: Whoa!!
ALMA: Are we doing something wrong?
RAFIA: [effort]
ALMA: Or are we missing something?
Hmm...
ALMA: Wait a minute...
Safina was using her phone
AND her laptop.
ALMA: Maybe there's more to making the video
than we thought...
ALMA: I know what to do.
ALMA: Harper! Rafia!
I know how to make our
video look like Safina's.
HARPER: How?!
ALMA: We need to ask
Safina for help!
C'mon!
GRANDMA JEAN: C'mon, gals!
RAFIA: Hi, Ma!
GRANDMA JEAN: Hi, Fatima!
SAFINA: Hey, friends!
ALMA: Safina! We need your help!
HARPER: We wanted to make a video
like yours to send to my dad.
RAFIA: And we've been trying all day.
But we can't get ours to look like yours.
ALMA: Did you make it on your
laptop or your phone?
SAFINA: Both!
I used my phone to record the video
and my laptop to put it together.
ALMA: Wait..
put what together?
Safina, what do you mean?
SAFINA: I know
it looks like I did everything at the same time,
but I actually recorded the video in two parts.
ALMA: Can you show us?
SAFINA: Absolutely!
[rubbing tape]
SAFINA: Harper,
please stand right here.
SAFINA: Now when I say "“Go,"”
throw the blanket up and let it fall.
Okay?
HARPER: Okay, Safina.
SAFINA: Alma,
press record, please.
ALMA: On it.
ALMA: Recording!
SAFINA: Now, Harper...
Go!
SAFINA: And...cut.
Done with part one.
RAFIA: But what about the robot costume?
SAFINA: Yup! That's part two.
GRANDMA JEAN: This is so exciting!
Like a real movie!
SAFINA: When I say, '‘Go''
you're gonna do the exact same thing
you did last time.
HARPER: Got it!
SAFINA: Okay, Rafia,
start recording.
SAFINA: And Harper... Go!
HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
Beep-bop-boop-boop-bop!
SAFINA: Cut! Awesome.
SAFINA: Now it's time to edit.
HARPER: Edit? What's that?
SAFINA: That means we're going to put the
two parts together
using this.
SAFINA: Can you please email me those videos,
Ms. Jean?
GRANDMA JEAN: Sure thing!
GRANDMA JEAN: There ya go!
[notification ping] SAFINA: Got '‘em. Thanks.
Ok, check this out.
[mouse clicking]
HARPER: What's that, Safina?
SAFINA: It's an editing program.
It lets me put the videos together.
Watch this.
SAFINA: First part goes here...
Second part goes here..
RAFIA: Whoa! ALMA: Oooh...
HARPER: Then what do you do?
SAFINA: First,
I shorten this video at the end.
Then, I shorten this video at the start.
SAFINA: And then I put them together,
like this...
SAFINA: Then I add some music!
And that's it. We're done!
[mouse clicking]
[♪♪♪]
HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
Beep-bop-boop-boop-bop!
RAFIA: Whoa!
It's just like YOUR video!
GRANDMA JEAN: Incredible!
ALMA: Sa-weet!
HARPER: Ooooh.
My daddy's gonna love it!
SAFINA: I just sent it to you, Ms. Jean.

Would you like the honor of
sending it to your daddy?
HARPER: Yes, please!
HARPER: Sent!

PETE: Hi, Harper! It's Daddy.
I loved your video.
And...
PETE: [robot voice] I love my little robot!
Beep-bop-boop!
[blows kiss]
HARPER: [blows kiss]
Thanks, Daddy! [chuckles]
HARPER: We're always pretending
to be robots together.
HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
KIDS: Beep-beep-bop-boop-boop!
GRANDMA JEAN: [robot voice] Are you robots hungry for a snack?
KIDS:YES! [robot noises]
ALMA: Movie time is fun but...

action!
HARPER: Ah!
ALMA: Cut!
ALMA: Hmm,
maybe you should practice
putting on the costume
beforewe make the video?
RAFIA: Yeah,
I can time you so you get faster.
HARPER: Good idea.
HARPER: Okay.
RAFIA: Ready, set... GO!
RAFIA: Three.. HARPER: Ah! [struggles]
RAFIA: Four... HARPER: Oof!
Five...
Six...
Seven...
Eight..
HARPER: [out of breath] Done!
RAFIA: Eight seconds!
It's your best time so far!
HARPER: [robot voice] Thank you.
KIDS: [giggles]
HARPER: I'm ready to make the video now.
ALMA: Ready?
HARPER: Uh-huh!
ALMA: And...
action!
HARPER: Ugh!
I'm still not fast enough.
Maybe your sister had help?
ALMA: Ooh, like a friend?
RAFIA: I'm a friend! I'll do it!
RAFIA: Harper,
you throw the blanket up
and I'll hand you the costume.
ALMA: Great idea, Rafia.
ALMA: Action!
RAFIA/HARPER: [struggles]
RAFIA: Nope.
That didn't work.
RAFIA/HARPER: [struggling] ALMA: Got it?
HARPER: Not yet...
RAFIA: Can you move your arm like -
RAFIA: Ahh! HARPER: Whooa!!
ALMA: Whoa!
RAFIA: Oops... Sorry.
HARPER: Beep-boop
A little help?
RAFIA: [effort]
HARPER: [muffled] Yikes.
Rafia? Alma?
I can't see!
ALMA: Cut!!
KIDS: [sighs]
ALMA: This isn't working!
HARPER: Maybe Safina's faster '‘cause she's older?
RAFIA: Nah.
I think she just has more
practice making videos.
HARPER: I just wanted to make a fun video for my dad.
Why is this so hard?
ALMA: Harper looks frustrated.
I am too.
Why doesn't our video look like Safina's?
I gotta think about this...
SAFINA: Here it is!
ALMA: Safina's video was ah-may-zing.
And we thought it would be so easy to make.
But it's not...
ALMA: Nothing we tried worked.
HARPER: Whoa!!
ALMA: Are we doing something wrong?
RAFIA: [effort]
ALMA: Or are we missing something?
Hmm...
ALMA: Wait a minute...
Safina was using her phone
AND her laptop.
ALMA: Maybe there's more to making the video
than we thought...
ALMA: I know what to do.
ALMA: Harper! Rafia!
I know how to make our
video look like Safina's.
HARPER: How?!
ALMA: We need to ask
Safina for help!
C'mon!
GRANDMA JEAN: C'mon, gals!
RAFIA: Hi, Ma!
GRANDMA JEAN: Hi, Fatima!
SAFINA: Hey, friends!
ALMA: Safina! We need your help!
HARPER: We wanted to make a video
like yours to send to my dad.
RAFIA: And we've been trying all day.
But we can't get ours to look like yours.
ALMA: Did you make it on your
laptop or your phone?
SAFINA: Both!
I used my phone to record the video
and my laptop to put it together.
ALMA: Wait..
put what together?
Safina, what do you mean?
SAFINA: I know
it looks like I did everything at the same time,
but I actually recorded the video in two parts.
ALMA: Can you show us?
SAFINA: Absolutely!
[rubbing tape]
SAFINA: Harper,
please stand right here.
SAFINA: Now when I say "“Go,"”
throw the blanket up and let it fall.
Okay?
HARPER: Okay, Safina.
SAFINA: Alma,
press record, please.
ALMA: On it.
ALMA: Recording!
SAFINA: Now, Harper...
Go!
SAFINA: And...cut.
Done with part one.
RAFIA: But what about the robot costume?
SAFINA: Yup! That's part two.
GRANDMA JEAN: This is so exciting!
Like a real movie!
SAFINA: When I say, '‘Go''
you're gonna do the exact same thing
you did last time.
HARPER: Got it!
SAFINA: Okay, Rafia,
start recording.
SAFINA: And Harper... Go!
HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
Beep-bop-boop-boop-bop!
SAFINA: Cut! Awesome.
SAFINA: Now it's time to edit.
HARPER: Edit? What's that?
SAFINA: That means we're going to put the
two parts together
using this.
SAFINA: Can you please email me those videos,
Ms. Jean?
GRANDMA JEAN: Sure thing!
GRANDMA JEAN: There ya go!
[notification ping] SAFINA: Got '‘em. Thanks.
Ok, check this out.
[mouse clicking]
HARPER: What's that, Safina?
SAFINA: It's an editing program.
It lets me put the videos together.
Watch this.
SAFINA: First part goes here...
Second part goes here..
RAFIA: Whoa! ALMA: Oooh...
HARPER: Then what do you do?
SAFINA: First,
I shorten this video at the end.
Then, I shorten this video at the start.
SAFINA: And then I put them together,
like this...
SAFINA: Then I add some music!
And that's it. We're done!
[mouse clicking]

HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
Beep-bop-boop-boop-bop!
RAFIA: Whoa!
It's just like YOUR video!
GRANDMA JEAN: Incredible!
ALMA: Sa-weet!
HARPER: Ooooh.
My daddy's gonna love it!
SAFINA: I just sent it to you, Ms. Jean.
[notification ping] GRANDMA JEAN: Oh, Yeppers,
there it is.
Would you like the honor of
sending it to your daddy?
HARPER: Yes, please!
HARPER: Sent!
[notification ping]
GRANDMA JEAN: Would you look at that!
Peter already sent you back a video!
PETE: Hi, Harper! It's Daddy.
I loved your video.
And...
PETE: [robot voice] I love my little robot!
Beep-bop-boop!
[blows kiss]
HARPER: [blows kiss]
Thanks, Daddy! [chuckles]
HARPER: We're always pretending
to be robots together.
HARPER: [robot voice] Beep-bop-boop!
KIDS: Beep-beep-bop-boop-boop!
GRANDMA JEAN: [robot voice] Are you robots hungry for a snack?
KIDS:YES! [robot noises]
