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 clothes 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 

In order to ensure safety, every participant will carry their cellphone. This way they have access to a flashlight and emergency contacts if anything were to go wrong. 

Also, for every minor involved, we will communicate with their parents to ensure they know where we are at all times. 

We will not be consuming any food or drinks for this short. 

Back-up 

If either of our filming days do not work, we will make them up the following Sunday. 

If any participants are to back out, we have two other people (Izzy and Lola) ready to fill in.

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...

Production Blog: On set

Hye blog! Its me again. It has been about six days since the last time we filmed. Our first time filming was very successful. I started off todays filming day the same way I started it last time. I texted everyone who is on set to confirm whether they are able to make it or not. I started to head to Marianas house but I ended up arriving late due to traffic issues. Since I was already late I stopped by to get small snacks for everyone so we don't have to stop like we did last time. I let my partner know that I was arriving late and that she could get a head start on the filming. Today the goal was to shoot at least 4 new scenes so we can speed up the process. Unfortunately there were many minor things we have forgotten to include in this task. For instance, we forgot to remind everyone to wear the same costume they had on the first day of filming. Next we forgot to provide our new cast member with a list of items they needed to bring for their character, also we forgot to provide s...
