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!

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...
