No More Editing

Welcome to my blog. Today is my last day of editing. I have looked over everything and ensure that it is correct. I have double-checked everything. I referred back to the script and made sure everything was aligned. However, there are some last-minute changes that I needed to accommodate for. While I was going through the films I realize that a significant piece of the script was not in the video. There was a line with one of our actors, Sam where he mistakenly forgot to say that phrase. Fortunately, for us we were able to voice record him saying the line. I placed that voice recording on top of the video and continued to edit. Another thing I had to do was to learn how to reduce background noise during this scene with Akiel and Mya. I went on Google and watched a few YouTube videos to make the film usable. In the original shot, there was too much wind in the area. This made the sound muffled. I took multiple shots of this particular scene which I am very happy about. I was able to utilize audio from another shot to replace that particular video. Other than that the rest of the film went smoothly. I think that this film allowed my group and me to expand our knowledge upon the techniques of filmmaking. After editing I had to send my group the video via iMessage. We are ready to post and show the audience our body of work. We worked very hard to accomplish this task. It took multiple trials to finally finish the physical filming process. However, I am glad that we got it done promptly. We are finally ready to showcase what we have been working on.

Production Blog: First Group Filming Session

Image
 My group and I have finally met up. I had to pick up one of our actresses, Mya. At first we set up a time to meet but my team member had an appointment so they tried to filming earlier. Unfortunately, we ended up filming the originally scheduled time because I live in Deerfield and had to drive to Fort Lauderdale. We met at Akiel’s house and got right to work. The first thing we did was film the establishing shot. We took multiple shots of the neighborhood. One way we did this was by getting high ground. We did a 360-degree overview of the neighborhood. We only filmed scenes 1, 3,5,10, and 11. We then drove to the Corner store and went inside to ask for permission to film. Once we received an okay we filmed the scene of Akiel looking for a snack. Then we shot an eyeline shot. We had to reshoot the scene from different angles. Mya and I set up outside of the store. Once Akiel was done with his solo scenes we filmed our scenes. We filmed the speaking scene but the environment was ve...

Title Blog: Drama Genre

Image
The title that is displayed in this opening sequence is the name of the film, Saint Judy. You also see the writers, directors, editors, music by, actors, and product names. They make sure they put the production company name, who’s the film by, and what type of film it is. In the opening sequence, there’s a flag, a group of people, and a courthouse. You also see a jail cell, police, cameras, and a library. I see documents, the statue of liberty, and apartments. The flag represents the United States of America. The group of people and the poster is saying they are protesting for something. The jail cell, police, and the courthouse mean someone is in trouble with the law. The camera and the apartments would be that neighborhood is being watched. The documents, library, and the statue of liberty mean someone is preparing for a case. The film establishes the feeling of Drama because of the natural lighting. It makes things seem more realistic. They have a courthouse, with the police, and a...
