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 also improvise another split up. What I mean by this is that originally me and my friend were suppose to get split up in the mirror maze. Once my group and I arrived at that mirror maze there were a lot  of kids in there and we were being rushed to go through it. My group and I basically got kicked out of the mirror maze and did not have time to film in there. After exiting we brainstormed to find an alternative idea to this. I ended up recommending a whole idea about one getting on a ride and the other thinking her friend was behind her the whole time but wasn't and got captured by the kidnapper. It was difficult to get this idea fully in set but we managed to work with what we could. This was probably the biggest change we made because it interfered with our pitch. Although we hit this rough patch we managed to work with it. Another change was adding voice overs. Originally we weren't going to add them and hoped the camera would catch onto our voice. Unfortunately it did not and we had to add voice overs, which was a difficult process. That's it for today blog! Until next time. Karina logging off.

RILEY (19), a babysitter, sits on the couch, lazily scrolling through her phone. LANA (8), a pale and quiet child, sits cross-legged on the floor, drawing in a notebook.   RILEY   (chuckles)   You have been s quiet all   Youâ €™ ve been so quiet all night, Lana. You sure youâ €™re not a robot?     Lana looks up at her, expression unreadable, then flips her notebook to a blank page and scribbles something. She holds it up:     “Sheâ €™s watching.â €     RILEY   (frowning)   Uhâ €¦ whoâ €™s watching?     Lana points toward the dark hallway leading to the bedrooms. Riley follows her gazeâ €”just darkness.     RILEY   Nice try. You trying to freak me out?     Lana shakes her head, eyes wi...

Critical Reflection for Short Film

  After our film “She’s Here” was released, many questions began to form, one of the questions that stood out to me the most was how our products represented social groups or issues. To begin, the main representation in our film was disability where the kid that the babysitter is taking care of is a mute child. We made this obvious to the audience when the child, Lana, began to write in her daily notebook to communicate with her babysitter. The use of the mute child showed how lack of communication could occur even when you say everything properly, but the tone you say it can have a strong impact on how the person receiving the message interprets the message, which is an entirely different form of “lack of communication”. This can also connect to social issues in life, for instance, the experience the child goes through can sooner or later lead to post-traumatic distress for the child and even the babysitter, affecting the mental health of one another. Along with this, the child be...
