Production blog: Film review changes

 Hey blog! its me again. Today I will be talking about the changes I made from the film review. To start, after my siblings reviewed the film my group and I quickly changed the volume of the music in certain areas so the audience can focus more on the dialogue. After this we changed the timing and size of the fonts, believe me they looked way better than before. Another thing we changed wads the type of music we used for the running and suspense scenes. Honestly after fixing these toucheses there and there the film reached our satisfaction and overall we are proud. Other changes that were made to the film besides editing was when we first got to the carnival. We planned to stick to the storyboard, but it didn't work out entirely. When we first arrived we got stopped by a motorcycle meet up which caused a huge delay. Purchasing the tickets and wrist bands was NOT with an actual person, it was digital, so we had to improvise the opening of the film. Along with improvising, we had to

Production blog: film review

 Hey blog! its me again. After officially finishing our video I showed my sister and brother the video to hear open comments on what could be fixed. I first showed my sister. After she watched the video the first thing she mentioned was that in some parts the music should go lower than the other ones because of the setting. For example, in the scene where veronica and the kidnapper have an encounter, she told me to lower the music because it could allow my audience to focus more on the dialogue than the music. Another flaw she pointed out was how fast the texts were disappearing so she told me to fix the timing and maybe make the sizes bigger. Finally the last thing she told me was to change where the dissolve was located because it was too close to the fade. These comments helped me a lot. I then went to my brother and he watched the film. Once again, after he finished watch, the first thing he told me was the music changing volumes for more focus on dialogue. He also mentioned how so

Production blog: Finalized, likes and dislikes

 Hey blog! its me again. My group and I have officially finished our editing part of the filming. Today i will be talking about what I liked and what I disliked about the process of this film. Starting off with my likes. I liked putting the clips together. I liked this because firstly it was easy for me to do because I have done it in previous projects. Secondly I enjoyed seeing how the clips looked coming together and making one big thing, There's something about how it makes you feel closer to being finished.  Another thing I liked was doing the voice overs. Although it was one of the hardest things to edit, it was fun to record. Listening to my group mates voice overs was also enjoyable. Something I enjoyed most of all was getting together with my partners and filming. Again although it took us so many tries, the process of filming was very fun. Watching the final product with my group mates was also a highlight of this film. I don’t have many dislikes, but the ones i do mainly

production blog: final pieces

 Hey blog! its me again. Today i will be talking about adding the final details to the film. My group and I only needed to add the music to the film. This was an editing part. After that we had to make the quality better. There was more but I was in charge of the music. I downloaded the music and proceeded to add it. As I added the music i did it little by little. I added one song and cropped and put it in the correct spot. This took me forever to do. The reason this took me long was because it was hard to match the music at the right spot and get it to the right length. I have never added multiple audios to capcut before. Although, when i added the voice overs i had gained knowledge of this action of editing. I attempted to do the same thing i did with the voice overs. At first i continued to get lost but i got the hang of it. I did this for every song. The only thing that was missing was the sound effects. To be honest adding the sound effects was the hardest. It was difficult to kno

Production blog: Finding our music

 Hey blog! its me again.  After my group mates and I finished editing we only had the music part left. We all agreed with using free music instead of asking for copyrights because it would be risky and could take way longer. We went on Royalty Free music. We decided to split up and find our own songs that we were looking for and vote on the best one. I opened royalty free music on youtube and searched up the theme of the song we were looking for. I went through at least 25 videos before finding the first one. As I listened to the songs and audios I pictured and played the film we made. After finding my first one it took me a while to find the next 3. At first I was relieved to find at least one, 5 minutes later i found the second one. It took me really long to find the third one i was close to giving up. I searched for hours to find one. This was probably one of the most hardest things to find for my final task. I decided to take a break after 7 videos because i began to get frustrated
