Oh No.. Time to Reflim!

Hi guys and welcome back to my blog! So, our group made a mistake. We had the time requirements wrong for our film. We initially thought that the movie had to be 4 minutes and 30 seconds long but we were wrong. We found out that the movie had to be closer to 5 minutes with just a small time interval leeway of less than 5 seconds. So, once we found this out, we tried to add in some stuff with film we already had. But, after trying, we realized it still wasn't enough. So, this led to us having to go back to the drawing board and re filming. Being that Kyra was on a time crunch with having to study , we couldn't film any scenes with her. So, the only idea that we came up with was to just film some establishing and foundational scenes that would only require me to be in them. So, I had to go back to Andres' house to film some more scenes. It was actually pretty funny because while filming originally I got food dye in my clothes. So, I had to wash my clothes and wear the same clothes that I originally wore when we first filmed. So I got to Andres' house and in total it probably took about an hour. But, we thought maybe this was a good way for us to get more types of shots and angles in our movie anyway. So , we decided that the easiest way to add time was just to show me getting home to start cooking. So, we filmed the car arriving in the driveway scene from 2 different angles to cut them and make it look more cool. It was actually Andres' driving, not me. But, we filmed that , filmed some more walking and me putting on the apron and by then we were sure we had enough film. Well, thats it for this blog , we are going to go back and edit this in to the film, and be back to see what the critics have to say!

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...
