During the week of March 22nd to March 26th, I filmed a few scenes for my film. I filmed scenes one, five, and eight. In scene one, the character that I play, Alex, drives in her car by the beach. In scene five, Alex is driving again, but this time it's to meet up with her friend, Ava. In scene eight, Alex sits in her car looking at pictures of her crush, Noah, on her phone. The scenes that I was unable to film that I had planned to film were scenes two and four. In scene two, she drives up to her house and sees a for-sale sign. In scene four, Alex packs up a few of her things into a box. I didn't get to film those scenes because of the necessary props. I needed a "For Sale" sign for scene two. I also needed a packing box for scene four. So far, I've finished filming four scenes. I filmed the two scenes that involved my parents. I also filmed three out of the five scenes that include only me. This is a total of four scenes completed because one scene included a sn...

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...

In the past few days, I have been able to make some progress on my film. I filmed the scenes with my parents. In the film, both of my parents play Alex's parents. They are in two scenes total. They are in scenes three and four. In scene three, Alex confronts her parents about the "For Sale" sign in her front yard. She's very puzzled by it in the second scene. So, in scene three, she comes inside her apartment. Her parents greet her, but she's not into it. She immediately changes the subject. She asks if the sign outside is the neighbor's or if it is actually for them. They tell her that it's there's and that they're going to move soon. She's literally so surprised because she didn't even know her dad was looking for a different job. She stormed out of the living room and went into her room. The next scene is scene four. In this scene, Alex begins to pack a few of her things in a box. She then texts her friend, Ava. they make a plan to meet ...

The past few days have not been working in my favor. I was planning on filming more scenes for my film, but that didn't work at all. I was talking to my friend Skyler, who plays "Ava" in my film, about when would be a good time for us to get together and film the scenes that she's in. She let me know that she had a lot of work for school and her job this week. She told me that next week would probably work better for her. I told her it was fine because she's only in two or three scenes. When we do get together to film, I plan for it to only take maybe just one hour. I also spoke to Paul, who plays "Noah", about when he would be able to film. He's always been a very busy person, so I wasn't too surprised when he let me know that he wasn't going to be able to film this week. He asked me if we could film his scenes at the beginning of April. I said that was actually fine by me because he's just in one or two scenes too. My parents will also ...

This past weekend, I made it a goal to begin filming. I kind of achieved it. I filmed the first few scenes of the film. This included scenes two, three, and four. In scene two, Alex pulls up to her apartment. She sees a "For Sale" sign and is really confused. In scene three, Alex walks inside her apartment and is greeted by her parents. They tell her that she's moving to Georgia soon and that she needs to start packing her things. Super upset, Alex runs into her room and the scene ends. In scene three, Alex is packing a few of her things into moving boxes. She then texts her friend Ava to see if she wants to meet up at the beach. The scene ends with Alex telling her mom that she'll be gone for a bit. I filmed these three scenes over the weekend, but only as a rough draft. It was a lot of trial and error. I didn't like how the lighting looked when I filmed, and I didn't have enough energy in the scenes. In order for my film to look and sound better, I needed to...

This week, I planned and planned and planned. I created my scripts for what my actors were going to say, and what will occur in each scene. The lines are in the sound script. The scenes are described in the shooting script. I also decided on which locations I wanted to film in. I carefully chose all of my actors and who was going to help me film. I also drew out my entire storyboard for what will happen in each scene. I will have a total of ten scenes. Each scene will range from five seconds to up to thirty seconds. Some scenes will take place in my car, some in my apartment, some at the beach, and then the final scene will take place at the top of a parking garage. I didn't get to begin filming this week, because I was busy planning it all out. I needed to make sure that the actors I chose would be able to be in the film. I also wanted to show them the script. I wanted them to become familiar with it and to start looking at their lines. I also wanted to give them a heads up to not...
