Production Blog: Finally starting filming

After a long wait for my covid test to come back it came back negative! The downside of this day of filming is that I had a track meet so I didn't film a lot. Being that my actors were my teammates it wasn't much we could do throughout the week so I just waited till the day of the meet. We all meet up at my house before the meet (really early in the morning). Though this was not planned it worked out perfectly being that the scene is supposed to be "morning" time. The sun wasn't out much so it really did look like morning time ! We filmed the first like the next 15 seconds of the movie which is just the very first actual scene after the opening credits and title scene. This scene didn't really include much its just a run through of the home the young girl (my actor) got attacked in that morning along with the rest of the credits appearing on the screen. only one of my actors are visible onscreen, she's lying in the bed as the camera pans by. Much didn't really get done today as it was originally supposed to but I did get one of the important parts of filming done. I didn't get to edit the credits on the filming due to the fact that my track meet was all day, so that puts me behind a bit. I used my phone to do all the recording I was going to use a professional camera but I don't have a laptop of my own to do all the editing off of so I thought I'd stick to the phone. Although, this has turned out to be another day of disappointment I'm still glad I got something done.

 Hi, my names Anya Lucas. I am so excited to have made it to the next level in this class! Just in case you don't remember I'm here to tell you a little about me a lot has changed. For starters I am a Junior now and I'm very excited about that. Some of my hobbies are track and doing hair, I spent the whole summer perfecting my craft in both. I love movies! That's what makes this class so interesting. Learning about how films are made and the work that goes behind it is just so satisfying to me. The type of movies I tend to watch are action, romantic and comedy. Although I don't read very often my love for movies also ties to my love for books. I tend to read books that are most likely based on real life. I'm a very enthusiastic person and I feel as if this class helped me bring my enthusiasm out into my creativity. I also try my very best at EVERYTHING  that I do. Last year I learned a lot of new skills that I'm so excited to include in my project this year.

Editing Blog- The finale !!

Image
 Hey guys, today is the last day we have to complete any last minute changes. As you guys know we are basically done !! We only have one more day until our deadline. We decided to do one more overview of our film. Though it wasn’t much wrong we decided to adjust the ending. The ending was a bit shaky. It ended kind of rough because of the way the camera was shut off. We usually filmed more than one time of the same scene. We just happened to not have done that this time. To cut off some of the shakiness at the end we decided to add another clip of the same scene from a different angle. By doing this we hoped to not lengthen out the actual time of minute 5 but the actual duration of the scene. We used angels computer of course to edit. This kind of helped with the shaking at the end. It eliminated the very end of where you would of saw the camera being actually shut off. We know the film isn’t supposed to be a 5 star film but that was just bothersome. After doing that we watched the fil
