Production Blog

Our group has not starting our filming process as of yet. The filming will begin in the next two weeks. I would say the process of filming would take about three days to complete. In the meantime, the group has been editing our planning blogs and scripts. I had to fix my images that were not showing up for the teachers. Another issue is we have to revise and redraw our storyboard. The problem is it was too short and more pages needed to be filled out. So far we have 4 pages and we need at least 7 to 10 pages. On the otherhand, the group will rewrite the scripts as well to make it better. We want to improve the sound and dialogue script simply because it isn't conveying that sinister and mysterious feeling yet to the audience. This script needs to be less mediocre and more abnormal and uncommon. Besides the scripts and the storyboard, the rest of our planning blogs are just fine. We are trying to plan as close to what we want and not mess up. Another problem our group will have to face is getting someone to help with the film. We originally thought that three people would be enough however there is a scene where all three group members will be present. Thus, leaving us with no one to film our performance. Hopefully, if we end up not finding someone who would be willing to help with the film, we can find some equipment to help with this problem. Equipment like a tripod, for example, to hold the camera upright. I would probably be able to get someone to help if we dont have a tripod. This is what we have been talking about for the last few days. We have been working out what to do and how to go about scheduling.

Filming Blog for Music Video

     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...
