  today marks my 5th production blog and the fist day back from spring break. Like previously stated we weren't able to film because of personal reasons. Eric went to jersey to see his girlfriend. I had work overtime to receive a nice paycheck. And Mya and Keren wanted to spend time with their families. Eric was most of the reason though, since he was out of the state and most of my scenes were with him. We ended up discussing things again and coming to a few conclusions. Even though we usually film on Sundays, this weekend is easter Sunday. For a lot of people this is very important and they like to go to church or an event to celebrate. Keren and her family is no exception. Since our film takes place at her house, and she's not going to be home, no filming can be done. We were hoping we could find a solution to this over the phone. Saturday seemed like the only option we could do, and i was even willing to call out of work to make it work. Sadly though, Eric might not be bac...

 This is my fourth production blog giving an update on everything going on. This week though has been really hectic.Today my team decided to film. Since today was an early release day it worked out perfectly for us. Since Eric is leaving on Sunday and Mya is leaving soon after the only day we could've done it. Sadly when i asked last week if we could do Thursday they Kc said probably not and if it changed she would get back to me. She didn't get back to me due to other obligations which is very understandable. So when i realized i would be working on my birthday i decided to switch around my work schedule so i would have the day off. So, i took Wednesday off and decided to work Thursday instead. I told my manager about it Sunday so when he made the schedule on Tuesday my day off would be official. Then on Monday my other partner, Mya, asked if we were filming Thursday and Kc said yes. That would've been okay if she got back to me sooner, but sadly i already talked to my man...

 This is officially my third production blog. Sadly since the last two we haven't had the chance to film again. We also decided to re-film everything we did on Sunday. This is because we got our lenses in the mail and they make our cameras have a better affect. This will help give our film the look that we're striving for. My teammates were hoping to film on Thursday which is early release. Sadly, because of communication problems i will not be able to attend, because of work. Eric cant do Fridays and Saturdays, and in the week Kerens mom an ddad wont be home to watch us. Spring break would've been the perfect time to film but Eric is happily going to new jersey to meet his girlfriend for the first time. Mya has also decided to spend her spring break to the best of her abilities and go somewhere with her family. I decided to invest more hours into work and Keren will be focusing on her studies. Spring break filming is officially out of the question. So last night i looked a...

During the production of our Film "Secrets" we accomplished a decent amount. So far we only filmed 1 day which was last Sunday. When arriving in the morning we talked and ate before getting our makeup and wardrobe on. Eric wore a sweater and some jeans with a white dress shirt underneath. Keren and Mya on the other hand decided to wear cut blouses and and nice jeans. Me on the hand decided to go with a jean dress and black formal shoes. Our makeup was done to perfection and by around 4 or 5 o'clock we were ready to start filming. Since it wasn't dark outside we started by filming upstairs. Kc and Mya took about 20-25 minutes since we kept adjusting the camera angle and lines. Me and Eric took turns adjusting our camera angles and positions so we could better capture all the action. In all though the scene came out perfect and we moved on to film the first scene outside. The lighting was perfect due to the sun setting and within 15 minutes the first scene was successfu...

 This blog will go over our first filming day which was on March 7th. To start off the morning i had to get up at 8:30 so i could reach Kerens house by 10 o'clock. Even with this extremely early wakeup call though i still arrived 20 minutes late. Upon arrival i realized that only me and Eric were the only ones who arrived, Mya was missing. Mya let us know that our amazon package didn't arrive at our house yet, and we needed it to film since it had our camera lenses. She said if it wasn't there soon she would start driving around to different stores in hope of finding one similar. After an hour of prepping to film with Mya still not arriving Kerens mom decided that Mya should just start coming over to the house while we drive two minutes away to the Best Buy to see if it was there. While it wasn't there we did find something similar we could use and decided that dividing the bill three ways was just something we would have to end up doing. By the time Mya arrived we had ...

   Though, it's common for each slide from a storyboard to be different 5 seconds of the project. Our group decided it was best to show each camera angle, shot, and editing technique that'll be used in our final task. The story board will be 10 sheets long. Each sheet containing 6 slides, with the total of 60 slides. Under the picture drawn in the slide will be a brief discription of what's shown in the shot. That description information may vary depending if it's describing a camera action, angle, or editing style that was used. 

This is my first official filming and planning blog. Twice a week i will be posting a new one with an update on how amazing our filming process is. To the best of my ability i will strive to include as much information in them as i possibly can. This will help me keep track of everything going on and help me when Im struggling to remember things. Sadly, no filming has taken place as of yet. Filming did not take place today due to many reasons. The main one being we have completely different schedules. One of our partners, Eric, works at a resturant and we have to plan our filming time around his days off. I recently started working and am starting my job today, so doing anything film related wouldn't have been possible. Mya and Keren couldn't have started filming by themselves due to them having all their scenes together and having no one to help them record. That would also add an extra day to our filming schedule. That would effect our other blogs and cause us to change a few...
