Production Blog; Finishing my Planning

 I first came up with concepts for my handmade film, which was about two best friends getting together in college. I looked into several collegiate environments in quest of real-life filming sites.I wrote language in the screenplay to highlight the two characters' friendship.I sketched up important situations, imagining each shot as it would appear on camera.I intended to record the buddies having private moments together, taking into account camera angles and shoots.After getting the gear I needed, I set up my lights, tripod, and camera to record.To ensure interaction between the characters, I cast friends and family members in the film.I maximized efficiency by creating a filming schedule that included time allotted for each scene.I explored places before we started filming to make sure they fit my concept.

Beginning to Film

  With my camera arranged and lights adjusted, I embarked on the filming of my video project. The excitement grew as I prepared to capture the opening scene, establishing the mood for the entire video. As both the director and actor, I meticulously rehearsed my lines and blocking to ensure a flawless performance. Taking a deep breath, I pressed the record button, immersing myself in the role of my main character. The scene unfolded organically, with each word and gesture carefully crafted to convey the essence of the character. My focus remained on authenticity and emotion, allowing myself to fully inhabit the character's world. With each take, I experimented with subtle expressions, wanting perfection. Despite the simplicity of filming at home, I was determined to flawlessly capture the essence of the scene. The familiar surroundings provided a comforting and intimate backdrop to the filming process. As I delved deeper into the character's mindset, I felt a profound connectio...

Production Blog: Starting My Filming

Image
 I recently staring my filming. I also began planning my angles and shots for the rest of my scenes. I began filming my scene a the pool which will introduce he video. So far some of the challenges I have faced is relating the angles to the power struggle. I am learning when to do certain angles and from what distance to relate to the scene. Last minute we decided to change our song to God is a woman by Ariana Grande. When we changed the song it really set back my editing and planning. Before we began filming I began to rethink my planning and how we were going to film. I started to rethink my planning and how I was going to start playing the song. After I planned everything I began filming my pool scene. It was hard filming a pool scene because of how hot it was outside and how we need to keep it school appropriate. However we made it work and kept it appropriate and kept the aesthetic of my story board. I really liked the theme in my story board and wanted to keep the scenes simi...

Production Blog: Planning Putting Together My Video

 For my blog I am planning to put together my video with one of my friends. It only requires one other individual. I am going to use the song Dark red. After I consulted with a few people I decided to do it with one of my friends Eva. She agreed to do it and now we just needed to find where we were going to film it. I just needed to find all the locations  I had on my storyboard. Thank God I have a pool and gym in my apartment so I could get them both. However for the mall and beach we would have to those locations to film. We are most likely just going to galleria mall and Fort Lauderdale Beach after. We can just film the bed room shots in my room. I want to make the videos on my phone and then edit them on Capcuts. I want to use some new techniques I have learned from the last project on this one. I would like to use new transitions and new editing skills. I would like to have one other person filming but if not we can film our selfs. As I said before I don't need more than ...
