Filming Blog

     On Wednesday, my group and I started filming day one of our Commercial. We used the field as our set to complete the task that we had written for a storyboard. We were able to film the majority of the clips, but we did not bring the soccer ball for this day. We filmed certain scenes such as the staredown, the panning of the Adidas attire, one of our actors losing the game, and the scene on the bleachers with me and two other partners. I filmed most of the scenes using certain angles and movements to capture a suspenseful and exciting clip. The first scene used in our commercial was the panning of the outfits worn by our actor. I zoomed in and out from the shoes to capture the Adidas iconic symbol, the three stripes. Then, as I moved the camera upwards, I got a whole clip of our first actor wearing Adidas attire. The other actor standing in front of them was wearing regular sportswear, and I had the same filming technique. I started from the bottom of her leg and move...

Production Blog: Editting Blog

 After filming was completed, it was finally time to edit. Connor, one of my group members, chose to edit the video since he had a lot of experience. My partner was enrolled in many coding and media classes throughout his middle school career.  He edited on his laptop, which he volunteered to bring to school, so my group members and I could help assist. I found time during my sixth period study hall time to help participate in the editing process. When it came to editing, I had a few issues right off the bat. It was very difficult to edit during the school day, since the internet connection was slow. This made it impossible to open and run the editing software. By this time, I had tried to restart the device and try a new device completely. It had then occurred to me to use my partner's phone hotspot to connect to the PC. This succeeded, and I was able to begin editing immediately. I messaged my partner the videos I had taken on my phone and then transferred the files to ...

Production Blog: Music Blog Plan B?

Image
Filming is now completed for my film! My next step in this journey is to edit all of the different shots into one movie. However, I am forgetting about one of the most important parts of the film... the music! As soon as my group and I decided on a genre and plot for my film, I emailed a music production company named, Warner Chappel. The Warner Chappel company messaged me back a few weeks ago, asking for a price to own the rights to the song. This price was outrageous, as they were asking for $1000-$2000. This is when I had to come up with a Plan B. I collected my group to discuss the news and everyone was devastated, since everyone was hoping to use Born Too Late, by the Poni-tails for the entire film. Everyone had shared their ideas for a new plan. Some of these plans included, emailing a new music company  and messaging the Warner Chappel  company again to compromise for a new price. However, it was too late into the film to wait for another music production company's...
