Production Blog: Final day filming

 Hi blog! It’s me again. Today I will be discussing our final day filming. We met up at Mariana’s house today again. I checked in with everyone as always. This time i suggested on getting to Mariana’s house at a later time since the scenes we were going to be filming NEEDED to be in the dark. As I arrived the sun was already down so It was perfect. We began to film as soon as possible because we didn’t want to stay too late either. I filmed majority of the close ups and the long shots. I let my partner film the tracking shots and the over the shoulders. During a scene that included a knife we made sure to use extra precautions. The babysitter was going to turn around quickly with the knife and proceed to to look around. Because she turns fast and the child was suppose to be by her side, I agreed that moving the child to the floor away from the babysitter was the safest option. In doing so there had to be added scenes to our film in order for the audience to know where the child went when she left the babysitters side. This scene was a low angle and a tracking shot. We proceeded to film and I shot the final shot which was a close up of the plot twist character appearing in front of the babysitter and mute child. That’s it for today blog! Until next time. Karina logging off.

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...
