Certain shots/ encounters during the project

 As stated In the last post, this production process was no joke but we all had fun doing it. It took almost 2 weeks to finish since there was conflict in our group. We decided to put all that to the side, and start getting this work done. Then we realized that this was fairly easy to film and did not even take 3 days to film. With the help of the story board, finding out the camera shots was really easy to use. We used shots such as medium shots, close up shots, extreme close up, and high angle shots to show meaning in our clips. There were many difficulties during production and even throughout this whole entire project. Some of the difficulties can include, the clips deleting, people forgetting their lines, redoing the script. I think the most difficult part was probably when the people who were assigned to do certain things did not do them. For example, I gave a group member who was on the verge of getting kicked out a VERY important task, and she did not deliver until last minute. We were all in distress wondering if she would come through or fold under pressure. So we waited, waited, and waited, and still there was nothing. We were worried and angry to the T but I decided to have faith in my teammates and hope and hope that she will prevail. This Wednesday morning, on March 17th, 2021, I got to see the final product. I was extremely impressed and proud of what the team I am in has accomplished

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

Decisions on sound, lighting Etc

 This right here is something I failed to realize. Some questions to ask would be, what sounds would my film use?, would they be diegetic or non- diegetic sounds?, would there be narration?, these are some questions that come to mind when thinking about sound. If you ever watched a teen movies made in the early 2000s, you can see how almost all of them have narration. Narration helps give background information to the audience. For example if the characters engage  conflict, the narration can give you knowledge on why this is happening or how did it start. Music can also help with the film as well. If you are doing a horror film you would use a low pitched sound, causing a eerie feel amongst the audience and setting the mood to how you want it to be. In our case we would put music that brightens up the mood, such as pop music to show how high school (in movies) really are. If we play some low music leading to silence, this foreshadows that something may happen just about now, or maybe

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
