Casting consideration and choices

 Casting can be a very difficult thing to do. You must be able to find people who will take their duty seriously and have some acting skills, Although we have not have started to cast, I have some ideas that I will present to my group this week. I have a few people in mind who will be a perfect fit for this task. Group member Kayla will actually be a actor in this film opening while the others will be editing and filming. Casting this week will actually be a great choice since we start production on the 22nd of February. If we can gather up a cast by Wednesday or Thursday, actors will be given time to memorize and act out their lines. The actors we choose must be good at memorizing since they have a short time to memorize their lines. So on film day we have a smooth transition and an easy production process. There is a couple of things we need to acknowledge before we start to cast. Things such as how should we do this casting process, where should the casting take place, how we would be able to judge, and how long would this process take. These are all the questions that come to mind when I think about how we would be able to cast. I will present these questions to my group mates and we will cultivate ideas towards this topic. Hopefully, this will be a smooth casting and not take up all of our time for the week. This is probably the most important part of this project since without the cast we have nothing. I know I will conduct the casting since I will grade their actions to the fullest extent and not be biased once so ever.

In the opening sequence of other films in my genre, the opening usually has a wide arrangement of items in it. If you do not know by now the genre, I am going for is drama/comedy that teens can relate to. Usually in teen movies in her early 2000 such as Mean girls or bring it on, it usually has the exact same type of opening just with different characters. Almost all the time you may see the protagonist which is usually a new student at a school get ready, go on a drive with music playing while the opening credits may appear. The 2000 film "Bring It On" has quite a unusual opening scene. The main character (or protagonist) appears to be cheering on a cheer team with her squad. All of the cheer members seem ecstatic while reciting their choreography. One by one the camera goes to different people, foreshadowing that they may be some of the side characters but have a major impact. Towards the end of the cheer the main character has a embarrassing moment when one of her article...

Production process

 Throughout this production process, not many types of technology were used. Since our cameras never came in, we had to be creative and use whatever we had. In the group i was in we simply used our phones to film and our computer to edit the shots to our liking. This was not really hard since the quality came out perfect and so did our shots. I personally learned that lighting plays an extremely important role in making a quality production. The lighting where he had to film was relatively dark, so we had to use certain camera angles to make the lighting a little bit brighter. The shot types that were used also had an effect on what the lighting would look like. In order to use our equipment properly, I had to watch dozens on top of dozens of videos to make sure that we produce a quality piece. These videos explained how to use the camera, how to edit, even how to hold the phone. These videos were actually a lot of help and I am very glad that I did watch them. I asked my teacher h...
