QWIK CUTTER 2: AUGMENTED REALITY

friendship. It was still pretty new. They used to not

get along at all.
Everything changed last year in seventh

grade. Shawn had had a huge problem. Amanda

helped him solve it. Actually, she’d done more
than that. She’d saved his life.

A big project had been due in their Advanced
Video Production class. Shawn waited until the

night before to start it. This wasn’t unusual. Always
being late was sort of his thing. Mr. Murphy, the

AVP teacher, normally didn’t care. Sometimes,

though, he got annoyed.
Shawn had had an idea. He found an app

called Qwik Cutter. It would edit his video clips for
him. The program would even add in cool effects.

His project would be done in no time.
There was just one problem. The version he

downloaded had been hacked.

The program had gone wild. It edited Shawn
out of his own life. His parents and teachers didn’t

know him. Neither did his best friend, John Gomez.
