Hey, blog! Film-making requires exacting attention to detail and a combination of technical skill and imagination. Our group recently had a setback in our endeavor to create a five-minute video, which taught us important lessons about how important it is to follow good film-making practices. Our error? filming in a vertical rather than a horizontal orientation—a seemingly insignificant mistake with serious consequences . We went into production with a strong screenplay and a distinct concept, initially full of energy. However, we discovered our camera misalignment throughout the editing process. The vertical footage that is frequently seen in informal smartphone recordings presented difficulties for our career goals. It confused scenes and broke the flow of the story. The sudden changes in frames created the illusion of an incomplete rather than well-executed piece of work. We weren't happy with the result because the choppiness didn't go away even after we tried t...
Hey blog! Just finished my homework for the night. Playing soccer at Holiday park was really fun on Sunday. We all had a blast and ended up playing until 6pm. I am really happy with the clips we got at the mall. Each scene we filmed had its own Christmas vibe to match the song. I was surprised how almost every single video came out clear and only one of them was blurry. We ended up having almost 20 different clips to use. Elton is going to be the one doing the editing for the video. Luke and I will help him with ideas on how to put the videos together. Elton is going to wait a couple of days to start editing. Until then I have just been doing homework. I have also been studying for the midterms coming up. We will be playing soccer at Holiday park this Sunday as well. I am very excited to play soccer with my friends again. The soccer cleats that my dad got me came in the mail. I tried them on and I love them. They fit so well and have padding all around. Anyways, can't wait to see ...
Hello blog! In my last blog, I talked about our plans to film our project on Sunday, the 12th. However, things did not go as planed. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to come up with a new plan, and after some discussion, we agreed to push back our filming date to the 22nd. We did not want to have to do this but it is always good to be flexible when working with a group. Despite the change of plans, we are still all excited to get to back to work on this project. We've made some progress in terms of roles and casting since my last blog post. Like I talked about a couple days ago, we had to say goodbye to Mallory due to scheduling conflicts, but we are thrilled to welcome Thandi to our group. We believe that Thandi will bring her own unique personality and talents to the project. One thing that we are still unsure about is the music that we will use for our film. We wanted to know what music we would be using before filming but we will just have to figure it out the day of fi...
