Production Blog: Lights, Camera, ACTION!

 


Hey, blog! It's me again. Today I will discuss our first day of filming for our short film. I started off the day by confirming everyone in the first 3 scenes would be able to attend our filming session. After everyone confirmed I began to head over to our set location, my partners Marianas' house. I arrived before everyone else did because I wanted to go over what we would be filming that day and in what order we would set everything on the set. After a couple minutes people began to arrive and they began to review the script for the scenes we were going to do. My partner and I went over the itinerary for that day. As this finished we began to set it up and started. I decided the let everyone continue going over their script for another ten minutes. While they did this Mariana and I filmed the establishing shot to show where the story is taking place. 

Once this task was finished we began filming. I decided to let my partner film the first few shots. After this, I began to film. I shot the close-up and the high angle.  I started to get hungry and assumed everyone else on the set was also hungry. I decided to get food for them since they are helping us make this possible. After we ate and proceeded to film, that concluded our tasks for that day. It was a very successful film day. I headed home and thought about starting editing but decided to wait till we had more shots. That's it for today's blog! Stay tuned to see our final results, until next time.

Group blog for music video

       Hey blog! its me again. I will be starting my music video soon. Firstly I would like to introduce my group. I will be working with Madeline Merrick and Makenna Ricks. I choose to work with them because were able to go places to film and work on the project. I call Madeline maddie, and i met her at soccer. I met her when i was about 6 years old. We have played soccer together since then. I met Makenna in the 6th grade. We went to the same middle school, Maddie also went to the same middle school.  I also selected these people because we tend to work well together. The song we selected was "Are we still friends" by Tyler The Creator. This was chosen and agreed by all of us. It started off with a list of songs and slowly started to select some out, we pictured a video with the song and listened to the song carefully. We crossed some off because they didn't fit exactly what we were looking for. We made a group call and listened to each song together and gave ...

Title Research: Art of the Title Website

 Hello everyone,     Welcome back to another blog! Today, I will be discussing with you our websites on title research. The title design in opening sequences is extremely important. So, it’s equally as important to properly plan. Because of this, my group has made sure to use the best websites to research our titles and title research. The two websites I have chosen for this research are http://www.artofthetitle.com/ and http://www.watchthetitles.com/. These websites are really good for many reasons. The first is that art of the Title website has movies from around the world, which is really good for variety and helps to research broader styles and genres.     Additionally, the site features title designs of film, television, conference, and video game industries. Again, this is very good for a broad selection. The other website, Watchthetitles.com, has over 200 title sequences, along with video interviews, and articles about movie titles. They are both great we...

title research: panic room

 Welcome back. Today the research we’ve learned is being used to break down an opening sequence. The movie being used is Panic Room. Let’s get into this.  The titles displayed are as follows: presented by, production, actors (biggest stars), movie title, actors , casting ,costume designer, music by, film editors, produced by, written by and directed by. The titles were show in the building and background of New York also working as an establishing shot. Creating the setting and feeling for the movie. The opening creates a feeling that is unaware of what is to occur. The titles presents the opening as though everything is fine and normal.
