production blog- WE ARE DONE FILMING YAYY

Today was an early release day, so we decided to go ahead and film. After many days of not being able to film, Thursday was our best day to get it finished up and ready to edit. When talking about setting a date, we first settled with this Saturday since I could take that day off.  Eric didn't know if he was working that day or not though so that put us a step back in or plans. Mya was also unsure about that day because she was planning on traveling. We agreed that it would would be best to change the date since it was our last chance to all be together, before the deadline was upon us. 

Once we got to Kerens house we started to get ready and she did our makeup. The plan was to reshoot some of the first scenes that we took the first day of filming with the lens. Eric thought that it would be best if we reshoot the door scene with Keren. Meaning even though she filmed all her scenes already she had to get dressed up again and do her makeup. I was kind of worried about our time management, but we promised that once we got into the work of things, we'd be very focused. NO DISTRACTIONS! In the past, I brought up a minor problem, Kerens hair was a completely different color. but Eric reassured her that he didn't think that would be a problem. Throughout the day I constantly checked the time and made sure while we were getting ready we were not getting to deep in the recreational conversations we  were having, to save time.

After we got done getting ready, we quickly started to film. It was still bright outside, so we had to discuss how we were going to handle the lighting. Back in March, my mom gave us the ides to use these black table covers, to make the downstairs area. We use it to the best of our abilities, until the Sun down. I think today was our most productive day. In terms of acting, angles, and filming, we did amazing under the limited time we had. Eric also began editing as we were filming to make sure we didn't miss anything and to ensure that everything made sense. We finished filming all the scenes with me and eric, Finishing off the night with the door scenes including me.

Production Blog- filming day

Image
 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 ...

Title Research: Art of the Title Website

  https://www.artofthetitle.com   To initiate our title research, we began with Art of the Title. When first going on the site, we learned that the sight mostly consisted of opening of popular films. There were tabs where one could look for specific Titles, designer, or studio. To further extend our research our research, we looked at two different openings of film. We learned that tho design style of a film always depends of the films plot and genre. Though, the website didn't state this directly. After watching multiple opening of films, we noticed that the title always correlated with the opening. We now have a better understanding how we're going to design our film title. Our group have already agreed on what our films genre is, and the plot structure. With that much done, we are more than ready to begin creating our film title.
