Planning Blog: Storyboard

 We completed our storyboard together.  We had to come together to brainstorm the proper ideas for all our scenes. We had so many ideas just for this one pitch that we needed to vote in order to complete this story blog. We each decided on who should do with this blog. The ten pages were used to show all scenes and camera movements. We weren’t sure as to who was going to draw all the scenes but luckily Anayah volunteered. Anayah drew out all the pages because she draws very neatly. Her drawing is also very detailed. While she was drawing, the rest of us helped her when she asked questions about what to do.  The drawing is the hardest part as there are many scenes to be done. We would all like to help drawing the scenes, but we decided we wanted everything nice and neat and to look like one. Being that we must create multiple scenes in the story blog it was kind of hard on our end. We wanted to make sure everything we drew and wrote down also flows for when we’re ready to film. This storyboard is the whole outline for what will happen come March 22nd. We helped by looking at the sound script and the shooting script. When she needed to know certain details, we were there to help her. The problem was having to figure out how to stretch the scenes so we would have enough.  We have 2 minutes' worth of drawing to portray. Using this as a guideline while we’re filming will be much easier so we’re not going off the top of our head. We were able to finish in time and it turned out well.

Filming Blog for Music Video

Image
     My group and I have not decided when to edit our video yet. Looking back on the filming day it was very fun. I am both sad and relieved about the filming. I feel this way because it was really fun to work with my group but I am relieved we got it done. I had a great time filming especially because we are all friends. We were all in contact and started to plan everything immediately. I feel like filming is better than editing for us because we can't meet up this time to edit. It was a little hectic because the storyboard was not really matching up with our scenes. In the end, we found a way to make it work because we were not going to leave until it did. Luckily, in the end, before the sunset we got all our shots done. I am grateful to be able to work with them because they really know how to get work done. We have talked before about working together for the commercial but we had already paired up. This time we actually got to work together and it was very easy to se...

Genre Research: Action & Thriller

The action and thriller genres have many similarities and differences, especially when it relates to CLAMPS. Action Films Action films tend to use different aspects of lighting such as, three-point, low key, natural, and high key lighting. Like thriller films, action movies contain excessive use of make-up and costumes to make the movie seem and realistic as possible. Not to mention, directors use make-up and costumes to separate normal and abnormal characters within the film. In action movies low-key, high-key, natural, and three-point lighting are commonly used during film. During the editing process, editors of action films are more likely to use graphic and action matches, slow motion effects, and plenty visual effects. Especially in movies like Spiderman, Avengers, and Iron Man. As for camera angles action movies are usually seen with using aerial shots, high angles, low angles, and canted (Dutch) angles. Common camera movements would be pan, tilt, dolly, and crane. Moving on,...

Planning Blog: Scripts

  Writing the scripts was easy for our group.  Our group already had ideas in mind for what we wanted in our film and it all came down to write these ideas in a script.  To create the script our group has used PowerPoint.  Using PowerPoint has made our  scripts  easier  to  read for the group and for the actors.  We successfully made t he  shooting script  go hand in hand  with the sound and dialogue script . The scripts are always very descriptive when it comes to sound, lighting, camera shots, and camera movements.  Not to mention, that there is enough dialogue to keep the movie scenes mysterious and  intimidating.  All that’s left is to film and edit using the scripts and storyboard as our guide.   One of the group members  Anayah  oversaw writing the two scripts, however, everyone pitched in to throw in their own ideas. For example,  Kadia came up with the last scene in the opening and...
