Group Blog

Hey bloggers its me aj and I'm back with another blog. I'm ecstatic to be working with Tiyana Smith who I sit with in class and I've known for 2 years. As well as Suse who I'm in 3 classes with already and have slowly but surely gotten to know. I chose to work with them because me and Tiyana had worked together in a group last year for another class. We work well together and have good chemistry. I also believe that Tiyana is a good leader as well as the fact that she keeps me honest. We chose to work with Suse because she is a very hard worker. I know this because of the other Aice class we share together and the math class we share. The song we chose was Great Gatsby by Rod Wave. Rod Wave is a R&B singer who got popular in 2020 with his hit song heart on ice. We chose this song however because Suse and Tiyana both like the artist a lot. Tiyana especially she really pushed to use his music and so we had a vote that I lost. Despite not being the biggest fan of him I wont lie and say his music is terrible. Which is why I had no problem accepting my loss and using his music for our music video. Compromises like this are another reason why I decided to work with these people in particular. Maturity and problem solving are qualities that are needed and useful for group work especially a project this important. Thank you for reading another blog of mine fellow bloggers. See you 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
