Production Blog

 Good morning bloggers! Eventually I will get a name for you guys. However today we get into the music I want to use for my video. I have been talking about it for some time and have lightly alluded to the problem that it can become. But today is when I'm going to dive deeper. Dive deeper into the problems that are coming up with choosing the perfect song for my video/commercial. My first and most obvious problem was the genre of the song I would be choosing. With my 3 main genres already chosen and then taken down to two one would think this would be easy. However, it wasn't, not even close. Like I was talking about my last blog entry I was aware of many sub genres within my 2 main ones. Especially within rap, so with all the new options it presented an unexpected challenge. However, like always I had a plan to help lessen the options. One of them being choosing the most school appropriate songs I could. This also meant using clean versions of the songs I was considering. If the said song didn't have a clean version, then it wouldn't be in final consideration for my commercial. Secondly, I had to consider if the song would be able to match with the idea of the video I already had in my head. Once I got that out the way the last thing I had to consider was which song represented me the best. After I figured that out I knew I would have the best song for me. Thanks bloggers for reading todays entry see you all next time!

CCR blog part 1 (podcast)

Hello everyone. Welcome back to the podcast.  Today we're going to answer some questions that you all sent me. So the first question today will be about conventions learned in our project. Within our video filming process we learned a lot about different conventions such as high angles, tracking shots, and a variety of other shots like being shot, middle shot, MCU shot, medium long shot and close up shot. Bring our filming process you also learned about the importance of lighting and sound within our genre of thrillers and a lot of thrillers that we in my group watched, we notice how lighting and sound really played a role in building up suspense and drama and even fear in some cases. So we were able to, we made sure to utilize that in our video.  More specifically, we used tracking shots, high angles, medium shots, meaning close ups and medium long shots, most commonly in our video that I think would really help drive home and let you know viewers understand what the image going f

Film Day 1 (Production Blog)

 Hey Bloggers! welcome back to another blog. Today we get into film day 1. I will go in depth on the day and the events that took place. As well as why this blog is even titled film Day 1. Why not just Film Day you ask? Well lets get into it. First off I want to say that this day was very productive. We got lots of the movie done. All outside scenes were done first as they needed sunlight. Unlike last time we didn't record the film in order of storyboard this time. We film based on importance of scene and location. To bring up an example that I used earlier the outside. All the scenes that showed the sun out or needed sunlight. Had to be completed first. Because if the sun went down, we couldn't finish the scene. We did this to prevent the need for a film Day 2. But obviously that didn't work out. We did however, like I said earlier get lots of important filming done. We ended up getting around 23-25 of the scenes done out of 30 for our storyboard. Believe it or not the sce
