Preparing to Film!


  Hey guys and welcome back to my blog! So my group and I are continuing the production process for our movie and I have to admit, it’s a lot of work! Last time you were here , I was building the website for my group as that was one of my assigned jobs. But, now that we are getting closer to due date for our movie, it’s time that we now start preparing even more! So, in this blog , I want to talk to you about all the different moving parts of this movie and how much we are doing for it. So basically , the first thing we needed was location. Our original plan was to film at Andres’ (our group mate) house for the scenes that required the inside of the home which is a good chunk of our film. These would be the scenes like the beginning with the date and other things. We decided Andres’ house because he lives in the most central location between all of us. But for the part of our movie where the main character wakes up from the coma, we were going to try to find a hospital of some sort. We wanted our movie to try to be in the specific real locations to try to make it look as realistic as possible. So because of that, we decided to try to find an outside venue for the hospital to follow Cambridge rules since we can’t film at school. So, my group mate yasmin emailed and called around to local nursing/medical schools in the area. But, we weren’t really that successful. They sent us back lots of dates which were conflicting with other things our group had to do. So , after I analyzed all the dates and contacted everyone with different plans and tried to make it work , to make things easier we just decided to change that part of our movie and have the character wake up in a “home care” of some sort. Kyra was helping out with the music for the movie. I was in charge of implementing the music into our website of some sort because I want our movie to have a “theme song” surrounding it of some sort. So when she messaged the underground band , she sent me the file and I got to working on the website some more. That’s it for now, be back to watch us continue the production process, BYE!

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...
