Scheduling Mishap

It was now time to begin the film of our project. The storyboard and script were finished, and planning was done... or so we thought. I had recently gotten a job and band season was beginning for me and another member. This completely ruined our previous recording schedule and it had to be redone entirely. We sat down in class and started to think of the days we could film, it was very limited. Although spring break seems like the best time, I will be in El Salvador the entire time. Weekends were off-limits since that is when band practices are. We all started to announce the days which were unusable. The calendar slowly got more and more filled until finally we all finished. We were left with three days; Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. These three days were back to back which is perfect for refilming and fixing up different mistakes. Now that our schedule was back on track, a new problem arose. We didn't have any transportation. Two of these days landed on a school day so we thought that we could all use the school bus by getting a bus pass. We were later informed that they dont work like that and you have to be assigned a certain bus. It seemed like walking was about to be option. That was until my friend offered to drive all of us to my house. Now, all of our problems were finished! This week filming will begin.

Commercial Blog

          Hello everyone, I am proud to announce that my commercial is officially complete! This has been such an amazing learning experience and I am so excited to share the final product. This project has helped me enhance a series of skills I did not think I needed to sharpen such as my creativity, flexibility, and communication skills. Throughout the entire process of creating this commercial, I had to adjust to things quickly and work efficiently. At times, all of the work that had to be done felt overwhelming but my team encouraged me and kept me motivated. I am grateful to my amazing group for helping me every step of the way and maintaining clear communication with each other. It was really cool to be able to witness the production process up close because it made me aware of small details that appear in the final product. I feel that the commercial came out really well because of our attention to detail and perfectionist tendencies. I feel that I can de...

Our Pitch Blog

A girl is one of few to survive the zombie apocalypse. She runs into another non-infected human and they have to get through together. Our first pitch is unique from the commonly chosen ideas. It would help in showing off creativity and originality. While also providing a well-thought-out and evolved finished project. Although the mis-en-scene would be difficult to accomplish for any of the scenes. Zombie make-up and attire would have to research, bought, and learned. Plus the fact that none of us leave in an area that would suit this project whether that be a woods or generally dark area. It emphasizes the idea that this girl is one of the few, which would force us to need backup actors to play the zombies. Not only would we have to find multiple actors for only a few scenes, but we would also have to work around their schedule and pay extra supplies for their make-up and costume. A girl has been living her day-to-day alone, or so she thinks. Our second pitch is about from stalker...

Film Review

 The project is almost finished after a month of filming, re-filming, and editing. We are relieved and thankful that this project is nearly completed. The entire process of creating the video was enjoyable for us. Although some aspects, such as filming, were more challenging. The initial planning, storyboarding, and filming, in our opinion, were the best parts of the entire endeavor. Everyone was allowed to express their innovative thoughts here, and we all knew what to do. The editing process, on the other hand, was not as simple. Unfortunately, only one of our team members was capable of editing and assembling the music video. The rest of us had no choice but to sit and watch what our groupmate were doing. It appears that certain scenes will need to be reshot. It will need to be altered, whether because of the length of the lighting. The transitions in the editing must be examined and re-examined. I'm sure there are other alternatives that would better suit the film's story....
