That’s a WRAP!


 Hi everyone and welcome back to production with Marvin. In the last blog you read from me if you’ve been keeping up, my group and I finally started filming. This was after figuring out a perfect date that would work for all our group members with their schedule and stuff. But, being that this movie was longer, our filming actually rolled over into two days of filming and not just one. Another reason for this is that we spent lots of time on the car crash scene and we all had to leave at a decent time for homework and other obligations. So , since this was day 2 of filming we did the same routine as last time from school to location. We all ubered to Andre’s’ house from our school and split the costs. Now , I was playing the main character for this movie and Kyra was playing the supporting female character due to us not wanting to have to depend on even more people and work out their scheduling conflicts. I would say it was pretty hard because this film was more serious so we would keep stopping and pausing due to breaking character. This was another reason why filming rolled into 2 days. So , from yesterday we had already filmed all the car crash scene, and we filmed the at home care (hospital) scene. Yasmin brought some props and I also went to the room dedicated to the medical field in our school and borrowed some things to help with the hospital scene. So, now majority of what we had to film was the intro stuff with the dinner, etc. So, first what we had to do was prepare the house for that scene. This involved us closing all the lights and curtains and etc. This was because for this scene, we wanted to “set the mood” in a way being that this was supposed to look romantic. We all helped Yasmin put out all the props like the candles, rose petals, and etc. We ended up filming for about two hours that day and I was getting pictures as we were filming for the website that I was in charge of. This was because for the website I wanted real time pictures so the audience can see the hard work. But, THATS A WRAP ON FILMING, we did it, come back as now we are in post production stage!

  Scene One- The first scene will start with Mya opening up the door to the courtroom. She will introduce herself, welcome the viewer to the courtroom, and then go look for the rest of the members. The camera will pan around the room to give a full view of the scene. Finally the camera will turn to Charlie and Kai.  Scene Two- The second scene will start with Charlie introducing himself. He would state his name and then, similar to a lawyer examining a witness, will ask Kai to introduce herself. After Kai says her name the camera will pan back to Mya who will go looking for the other members.  Scene Three- The third scene will jump cut to Joey asleep on a patio bench. Mya will walk into frame and wake him up. Once awake he will introduce himself to the camera.  Scene Four- The fourth scene will start with Kyra and I on a different bench. We will be in the middle of a conversation when Mya walks up to us and has us introduce ourselves. After we both introduce ourselve...

CCR BLOG   1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent   social groups or issues?   Our commercial product both uses and challenges commercial conventions. In normal school PSA's, they will usually have some type of message at the end. Within our commercial, we made sure to end our commercial with the message we wanted to get across which was to promote our mock trial team and we ended it with the introduction of all together as one. In one way it challenges conventions because usually school PSA's use normal clothing such as t-shirts, hoodies, pants, etc. Our commercial we took that typical clothing up a notch, and we wore our court attire because it matched more the school PSA we wanted to get across. I think our commercial represents social groups because it shows a group of people who are apart of a team and the group is diverse as well and shows representation. 2. How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be...

Intro Blog

Hello, I am Marvin and I am the son of a full Haitian dad and a full African-American mother. I am the oldest child out of all my siblings. On my mom's side I have a little sister named Malaysia and I have a 3 month old brother on my dad's side named Mayson. In the future, I hope to be a lawyer and maybe even go into politics.  I am not sure what type of lawyer I want to be yet due to the vast variety of types of lawyers there are or what law school I would want to go to. For undergraduate if I stay in state I for sure want to go to the University of Florida. If I'm being optomisitc, I would love to be able to go to an Ivy League school for undergraduate school but using my bright futures might be the best option. Right now, I am currently the Class of 2025 President and I am also apart of the Mock Trial Team. My favorite part of being on the mock trial team is the people for sure, they always have the best jokes and are very supportive of anything anyone does. I like being...
