Filming Blog: Filming with One of the Gang

On Friday (March 31), my group of four friends decided to film on Saturday. Featuring Riverside Park, Hort Park, Holiday Park, and Joseph C. Carter Park, with the first two being more closer to Cailey and the last two in the middle. Then on Saturday, I told the group chat the final location, which was the famous Holiday Park. I also told them the time to meet up... 5:45pm. I then updated them that there may be a possibility that I couldn't film today because my grandparent's at that time were painting their house and their walkway for the house. My role is a really big factor also, since I'm the one driving the car. So an hour before the filming time, I update my group and told them that I could film. A couple minutes before 5:45, David and Chelsey told us that they wouldn't be able to go. David couldn't make it and Chelsey's dad was stuck in Miami. So that left me and Cailey to film. Luckily, as long as I got me and Cailey to film, we were good because Cailey was the first one to get picked up anyway. When me and Cailey got the park, we went over the scenes that we needed to film. First scene was me driving to pick her up, both my mom and Cailey shot this scene. My mom was in the backseat filming me at an over the shoulder shot and Cailey just filmed me driving up to her. My mom filmed this scene two different ways. The first time she used 1x zoom, The second time she used 0.5x zoom. We used these to see what would best capturing me driving, the area surrounding us, and a view of the driver seat/controls. The second scene was Cailey entering the car, I filmed this part from inside the car, and I put my phone on the dashboard to film Cailey entering the car from another angle. My mom then filmed us driving off multiple times. I had to help her figure out what angle to use.

Filming Blog: Plans Didn't Work Out Again

Image
Well my group and I wasn't able to film at all. When me and my group came to class that week we talked about filming again. I think there was an early release day that week but we couldn't use it because we would be busy. In the end we wall agreed that Sunday would be our other filming day. On Monday, I was doing... as usual. I also watched the Grammys. Which are  awards presented by the Recording Academy of the United States to recognize outstanding achievements in the music industry. They are regarded by many as the most prestigious and significant awards in the music industry worldwide. On Tuesday, I didn't have that much homework. So I watched a movie and a TV show. On Wednesday, I did homework again. During my study hall class I went to best buddies. Best Buddies is a club at my school that consists of volunteers that create opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. On Thursday, I did homework. On Friday, I did nothing. I just watched m...

Production Blog: Editing My Videos

Image
Once me and David finished filming on 12/10/22. We wanted to import the clips he took on his phone but we both agreed on waiting until Monday. We then imported the clips through email. David decided to give me half of the clips then the other half the next day. I eventually got all the clips and I started to import them into my editing program, which is Adobe Premiere Pro. I've been using Adobe Premiere Pro for about a year and a couple of months. Before I started editing my part of the music video, I organized everything by 5 different categories... videos, sound/music, green screen videos, sound effects, and photos. I do this all the time because it helps me find things easier rather than everything being all of the place. Also, it's been this way ever since I got Premiere Pro. Before I import the clips I put the actually music video from the artist into the timeline, which is where are the clips, photos, music, and text is placed. I then went through every video and decided ...

Planning Blog: Title Design

The opening credits of my film will appear in a bold font that appears to be typed in different places around the screen. The size of the text will be pretty big so the audience can clearly see the credits. The color will be white with a black shadow/outline to give a little edge. Some credits, will appear to be embedded into the actual setting. For example, on the walls, on the objects in the scene, and buildings/houses. Working Title: The title of the film is most likely to be "R3VENGE" The working title will be bold faced with all caps: LIKE THIS . Also, the 3 will be 1-2 lager than the font and will be red: LIKE THIS The titles will be faded into the screen and and disappear with a fade out. The titles will disappear after 2-3 sentences. Some of the titles may have different sizes. Like 2 sizes larger than the normal. The titles are the Name o the Studio, Name of Production Company, Produced/Executive Producer, and Directed By. These titles will also be bold faced. Video ...
