Location and scouting process

 This process was rather easy since the genre of our film is based of high school students. What's amusing is when we first started this project, we started crafting ideas in a library and sure enough one of our scenes is in the library. We were confused whether we should do scenes outside the school to give a tad bit more background information on the main character the group they are in. But we ended up coming with the conclusion that we could not do this scene and here is why, Noting that we only have 2 minutes to do the opening and include the opening sequence, we would be pressed for time and would not be able to put everything we need to put. A major issue that we have based off our location is when we would be able to film. Since our location is in a school and some people have extracurricular activities that they need to do. By creating a schedule, we can be organized and have everything needed in the set time that we need to do this by. Although we did get one of the locations for the scenes, the other location was difficult but not at the same time. In this scene there was conflict between the characters two groups. We had to figure out whether it should be in the library or the bathroom. We ended up picking the bathroom since you can really capture the roughness and grittiness of the scene.

Storyboard

 This was easily the most easy but difficult assignment that we have had. Since one of our group members left our group, there was a little bit of conflict during the time we had the assignment. With Kayla and my great thinking plus Adonai's creativity, we created a master piece. I gave the format and specifically what we were going to do, and Adonai successfully carried out that plan. This was difficult since we started so late, but we still got it done. This is what we have came up with

Case study

 This case study was a rough and vigorous task since it was very hard to retain information. The 5 parts of the case study (History/target audience, production, distribution,  marketing, cross media convergence and synergy) all of these parts make up a case study. How did I do this? Well first you get the film of your choice that relates to the genre you are doing, I chose the classic film "Mean girls" After that you start dong research on all 5 of those topics. You may be able to find a couple blogs relating on how to do and find these very few parts. But make sure your websites are credential and legit. You do not want to be using websites such as Wikipedia to gain information. This websites information can be altered by anyone who chooses to do so. Once I retained all the information from my research, I started to form my case study. You can either do a power point, word document, or a video. I chose to do a PowerPoint since it is easier to divide those 5 topics. Then you ...

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...
