Production Blog: Re-Filming

 Hey guys and welcome back to my blog! In my past few blogs, you heard that I finally filmed my short film and edited it. But, there was a problem. While, we filmed and began editing we still were missing stuff that was vital to the storyline. We still needed an ending. We couldn't film everything the first time because it was nighttime and it was getting really late. When we first filmed, we couldn't find a family restroom. We were contemplating about it but we just ended up deciding to cut that aspect out of the film. But, like I said we still needed an ending. First off, this was kind of hard re-shooting because we had to make sure everything still looked similar. For example, we had to wear the exact same clothes and shoes. Our female characters also had to put their hair in the exact same way. When we re-filmed, we tried filming the ending car scene. To remind you, this was the scene where the kidnapper would jump out the backseat after our main character got in the car. We tried filming this multiple times. We spent probably more than 30 minutes trying to film this when we were re-filming and no matter how much we tried, it didn't come out how we wanted. So we decided to leave the film on a different cliffhanger. We decided to have our main character come out the bathroom and the kidnapper was near her and what makes it a cliffhanger is she doesn't see the kidnapper. We also liked this ending because it still kept in the aspect of her leaving her friend to go to the bathroom. Thank you guys for reading!

WELCOME BACK TO MY BLOG!

Hello everyone, it’s Marvin and I know it’s been a while but WELCOME BACK TO MY BLOG! Last time you saw me I was a newbie to the media world but so much has changed. Now I’m in A level media and I completed my AICE diploma. But, even though I completed my diploma I still decided to continue taking some AICE classes because I just fell in love with them , for example media. I’m now a junior and next year I’m going to be a senior and I have to start applying for college. It’s pretty scare how fast life is moving because when people told me high school went fast, I didn’t believe it. It felt like I was just a freshman yesterday sitting in AICE General Paper and marine science and global perspectives. Now , I’m in two a level courses and taking AP classes on top of that. But since I’ve finished AICE, I would say my hardest class I took would be AICE European History. I really thought I wouldn’t pass the exam but when I got my score back I almost burst into tears because that was the last r...

Production Blog

 Production Blog Welcome back everyone! We finally finished filming our commercial. Our group worked so well together when filming the commercial and we all contributed towards the direction the commercial took. When we were filming, we kept thinking very hard about the shots and my group and I were very mindful to use different types of shots when we were filming so we can have a variety. When filming some of our shots on this day, there were some problems where some of the specific scenes did not look natural. One example of this was our 3rd scene. In this scene, one of our subjects was fake sleeping and it did not look as real as possible and in order to fix this problem, my group and I did multiple shots of the scenes and chose the best ones. For our second scene, we had arranged the set properly. We had people sit in certain places,  stand in certain places , and look in a specific direction when talking. For all our scenes, we had our subjects have some input as to how w...

Group Blog

 Hello everyone and thank you for finding my group blog for my music video. I had a group for my commercial which was composed of Mya, Kyra, and I. But, for this project our group has gotten smaller and is now composed of just Mya and I. Kyra decided she wanted to work with a new group this time which we fully respect and we both still are great friends with Kyra. I chose to continue working with Mya because of her work ethic. Mya is great when it comes to group project because she gets stuff done. When we did our commercial, Mya would always remind Kyra and I in a group chat when we had due dates for the commercials. Mya would also always get her part of the project done within enough time for the rest of us to review it and make any changes if we needed to but there were always hardly any changed needed to be made. Another reason I decided to work with Mya again was because of her leadership when filming. When we were filming our commercial Mya would take charge without taking ov...
