Production Blog: Music or no music


 Welcome back to my blog. It is now officially crunch time.  My group has not received any sort of conformation from DMX's team. I am starting to think that we will be unable to use the audio. We now have to decide as on what instrumental that we are going to use. I think we may have a difficult time choosing an instrumental as each of us have different music taste. Recently, Raynaldie and Akiel filmed the night scene at the park near Akiels house. It took a while for them to come up with a date and time to film. Ultimately, they did it. Once we got to the park, they successfully filmed the scenes. We must come up with a filming schedule for next week because our final task will be due soon. I am nervous about the final task. Hopefully, the opening sequence will come out well. The majority of my focus now is on editing. My main purpose is to serve as editor and ensure that the sequence is well portrayed. With my previous projects I have utilized Imovie and final cut pro as editing software. Hopefully I don't let my group down. Throughout the editing process I will run specific ideas by them. We will successfully convey the message at hand. We have been putting a lot of time even though we are unable to meet up as often as we would like to. My group and I have faith and trust each other which would ultimately help Improve our strengths in media.

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...
