Production Blog: Minor changes in our Final Task

hey, blog! its me again! Today I will be talking about the changes we made on our planning and storyboard blog. After fully planning our schedule we were able to meet up got our first day. As we discussed many situations came up. The first thing discussed was one of the most important things in our storyline which was the evil parent. The casting for this short film seemed to be difficult for this action to be displayed so I recommended changing the evil parent to an evil sibling. This began to work out and we had to make changes to our storyboard and to our script. The next problem I brought up was the weather conditions we had originally planned in our storyboard. Ideally, we wanted to have a stormy night. However, whenever we start to film we aren't able to control or predict the weather. In this case, I recommended two options. We can either attempt to make an edit adjustment so it looks like we are in those weather conditions. The other option I recommended was just showing th...

Production Blog: Getting started

 Hey, blog! It's me again! After my partner and I planned out our story our next step was to begin filming. Before this happened I wanted to clear my schedule and find places to meet and discuss our further filming process. I started by formatting my schoolwork and my soccer schedule. With my season about to end, it wasn't very difficult to fit time. However, my partner also had practices of her own so I managed to work around that. After planning out this schedule we were mainly free on Fridays and over the weekend. Mondays were also not as busy as the rest of the week.

I also split the work among each other.      My partner and I haven't fully discussed any section of the filming process just yet. Our first meeting will be in a week from now. My goal for this project is to stay on task and maintai...

Other info for Short Film

 Hye blog! it's me again! Today I will be talking about certain information that is important for our short film! Location & Props   We have decided that we will film at my house. This will be the primary setting and where the whole short will take place. We will close the curtains to make sure that our area still gives an old, eerie vibe.   We will use a photobook. This book will be created prior to the filming day. We will use actual photos of Lana and Amanee in order to make it feel more realistic and add to the major plot twist.   Participants & Costumes   For this short we have casted 3 people:   Riley – the babysitter. She will be in casual, teenage cloth es to fit her role.   Lana – the child. She will be child-like clothes. The costumes in our film will not be a part of the scare factor.   Amanee – Lana’s sister. She will be in darker, casual clothes, as she is the evil Riley is being warned about.   Health & Safety ...
