2/3! Part One!

Im back! SO yesterday I did my first attempt at the CCR! Let me tell you it was a little frustrating lol. Partially because i didnt have a script nor did i have any continuity. I also didnt write down answers for the four questions so i could vocalize them fluently, whiiiich is pROBABLY a good idea. Now that I know just how to do it, I will be doing it in a couple minutes. But for now, enjoy my film opening thats will be posted in a few hours once im done uploading it to YouTube!!

1/3!!

Welcome back!
As this woonnnnderful journey almost comes to an end, I can officially say I finished my entire film opening! I dont think i have ever been so relived and satisfied with anything ever lol. I am currently setting up a YouTube account so i can upload both my CCR and Film Opening on there. I had some troubke uploading it to my google drive as it was telling me it would day 142 HOURS TO UPLOAD. Soo i am attempting the YouTube way :) With the help of my wonderful teacher, I learned how to screen record and record my voice all at once making my life and the CCR 304949 times easier with zero need to download anything onto my Mac. I am doing my outline for the CCR to sort of get the gist of what i'll be talking about & in what order so it sounds smooth and easy to follow. As I saw in previous years project, most people begin by introducing their genre and their inspirations behind the choosing of colors, name & plot. I'll be beginning with my blog and then diving into my genre and movie title & the "story" behind it. Im really hoping i dont mess up my words HALFWAY through the CCR and have to record everything because i reeeally dont enjoy editing. I much rather ace it in one shot. Anyways, my next posts you'll be able to see me and my partners wonderful production along with the CCR and a small reflection. Let's hope this last step goes well!

Final Edting & colorTouches!

Hello! So this week ends with final touches on our editing and putting together of everything. Its extremely satisfying to see all our hard work come together. Me and my partner just finished working on darkening the color on some of our clips to intensify the creepy mood

i couldnt set them next to each other but this is how the difference looked. We are now almost done with the editing and are going to begin our CCR process. We plan to meet tomorrow and help each other with a basis of the CCR so we can get equally high of a grade on it. A happy finish of a productive week media frieeends!

Editing!!!

As the due date comes closer and closer, me and my partner are actually kind of proud of what we've been producing. We spent all of today editing the clips together and adjusting the sounds so that no sound effect overlapped the dialogue. We had to reshoot some clips the day after and Isa didnt wear the same outfit. She was wearing a red shirt in the video and the only red shirt i had was extreeemely short lol so she used it but I had to make sure i only got the top half of her face so it wouldnt be noticeable which was really funny. We also had planned to do a movie poster but then realized the CCR was way more important to master than a movie poster which wasnt even required, but wouldve been a nice touch. For the editing we went on purple planet and incorporated these three sounds :


the morning routine was placed in the beginning to give the impression that its an upbeat movie when it turns the complete opposite. My partner thinks the choice of sound is a little TOO upbeat so that'll probably be adjusted. I really enjoyed using the adjustments for the color and sound,  i learned a lot by playing around with it.I also incorporated a couple of the sound effects that Imovie provides. I didnt know they had so much variety i was so excited to use some. They even have foley sounds! Anyways, our next mission once we're done adjusting any more sound defects, will be our CCR. Stressed but we'll cross that bridge once we get there!

PRODUCTION FINALLY!

Hi media friends we did it! We finally filmed today & it went really well! The weather was on our side & everything ran smoothly. Most of my camera roll is now stocked up with clips & ive never been more satisfied. We're going to spend most of our day tomorrow putting all the clips together & editing to revise if anything needs to be shot again. Me and my partner are lowkey very scared of the whole editing thing but we're excited to play around with it. Here are some shots from the stalkers POV of what we filmed today :0 The only thing we struggled with was closing it off. We hope we did a good job but we'll see how it looks tomorrow when it's all put together. We used my partners boyfriend as the creepy stalker neighbor and for a guy who's not too good at acting we think he did really well! We tried keeping the lighting in the room quite dim and dark to emphasize the creepy, mysterious tone without needing too much editing on the color while we adjut & edit out clips.We filmed on my iphone7 and the quality is sufficient which im satisfied with. We also have decided to make a movie poster for our film. We're in the process of deciding if we want to include both main characters or simply keep the focus on one. We saw some examples from the portfolios from 2016-2017 portfolios like "Black Candle" which really gives us inspiration. Canva is going to be our main source for producing this movie poster. We might look around for some more editing software and apps so ill keep you all posted & fingers crossed that editing doesnt kill us!
