Production Blog: Another road block

These past few days have been very difficult for me and my filming schedule. I wanted to film a few more scenes, but I was unable to do that. Considering that it was the week before spring break, I had a lot of homework and tests. Two of my actors couldn't film this week either, because of all of the work we were assigned for other classes. It's ok though because I myself won't be going anywhere for spring break. I have an entire week to film most of the scenes. Two of my actors, Ava and Noah, will not be filming during spring break, because they will be traveling. In total, I have ten scenes in my film. Two of them have already been filmed and edited. Four of them include my two actors, Noah and Ava. This means that I only need to film four scenes during an entire week. I think I will be able to accomplish this because those four scenes are of me and only me. One scene also has a part of only me, so I can film it too. The scenes that I will need to film are scenes one, two, four, five, and eight. In scene one, Alex is driving in her car by the beach. In scene two, she drives up to her house and sees a for-sale sign. In scene four, Alex is packing up a few of her things into a box. In scene five, Alex is driving again, but this time it's to meet up with her friend. In scene eight, Alex is sitting in her car looking at pictures on her phone. Hopefully, I can get these scenes filmed and edited during the break.

Starting the Final Task

Image
Hello, my name is Paulina Moreno. I'm in twelfth grade and I'm heading to college in the fall of 2021. I was originally born in Nuevo Leon, Mexico, but I've moved a lot since then. I've lived in many parts of Mexico, and also in Georgia and Florida, here in the United States. I've never really stayed in one place for too long, but that's what makes my life so fun. Everything I have experienced in the past has made me into the person I am today. My life is kind of like a movie, there are many ups and downs that shape the character into the person they are. That's why I love Media Studies. I want to learn how movies are created and all the different things that are incorporated into the film industry. I also want to learn how movies from other countries are made because I used to live in another country and movies are really different there. For the final task assignment, I decided to work by myself. Because COVID-19 is still a big problem in the United States...

TiK ToK (Music Video)

Image
"TiK ToK"  For the music video project, I was actually really excited, but I had many questions. What song am I going to choose? How do I want to film it? Do I want more people in the video or just myself? What would I wear in the video? What props would I use? I had many more questions but I had to think quickly. I ended up choosing a song called "TiK ToK" by Kesha. I chose this song because I needed to choose a song that I knew the lyrics to, and I can never go wrong with a 2000s song. I posted my intro blog on November 13th. This blog was all about my song choice and if I was planning to film with anyone else. Then a few days later I started researching the pop music genre. I posted my research blog on November 16th. The day after, I posted my planning blog. This blog was about my filming schedule, my props, and my costumes. In the days after, I drew out my storyboard and posted it on November 20th. This blog is the most important in my opinion. Without the story...

Production Blog: Filming is complete, now continuing to edit

Image
These past few days have been really productive in regards to my film. I finished filming all of my remaining scenes over the past two days. I did this on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Tuesday, I went to the beach to film the driving scenes. I have a couple scenes that take place in my car, so I had to film a lot of angles and views. I went to the beach with my mom, because some of the clips don't take place inside of the car. She drove my car, while I filmed. She doesn't know how to film, so since the clips were from far away, you can't tell who's driving the car. On Wednesday, I filmed the scenes that take place at my house. Either in the driveway or inside. I was waiting until Wednesday to film these scenes because I didn't have the props for them until earlier this week. I used a cardboard box for one scene. For this scene, I had to be packing up my clothes, to represent my packing for the move. In another scene, I used a "for sale" sign in my driveway. Th...
