I suck at rock paper scissors

On October 6th, I was working on editing. When I got into class I sat with my group and we discussed who gets what slide to edit. We played rock paper scissors to see who would get what scene. Since I won I got to choose the two scenes I wanted. I chose the garbage can scene, and the shot where Jibril was God. Afterwards, I started reviewing each scene. I realized that Jibril's shot where he was God needed to have a voiceover since the wind was cutting out his voice. The garbage scene was fine as is. I tried downloading I-Movie but my Mac wasn't up to date. When I got home I connected to the wifi and immediately updated my computer. I downloaded I-Movie and immediately imported the scenes from one drive. I was looking for music to put during the scene where Jibril was God. I remembered Halo had a sick soundtrack so i'm using the choir as the music for when God appears. I needed to add a flash of light as a transition from a scene Andy had so we used the same flash effect. After editing the scenes I called up Jibril on discord. We started working together to get a voiceover for him. We had to practice a lot since we needed the audio to be in sync with the video. After working tirelessly on the voiceover we finished. I implemented the audio into I-Movie and connected it to the scene. In the end I helped Jibril with some editing since he didn't know how to use it and that's that.

Production blog: The pool scene

Image
Today's the day of the major pool scene. Me and my friends got together at school and went to my car. We stopped by dominoes to pick up some pizza because we were absolutely starving. Afterwards, we went by Jibril's place to pick up his cop costume. Honestly its just a blue trench coat and a police badge we got from the dollar store, but we gotta stay economic. We went to my place and absolutely devoured the pizza. Oh and i forgot to mention, my Amazon package containing fake blood and fake cyanide pills came. We could use the cyanide for the scene we were going to film. Now, it was time to record. We filmed the scene of me entering the house for the first time with the murder scene being crystal clear. We then recorded the scene of me tackling officer Lussac into the pool and dragging him out. This was one of the most fun scenes i've filmed in my life. The fake cyanide looked really cool when Lussac broke it into his mouth. It looked like he was having a real seizure. We e...

How to Make A Short Film

  My takeaway from the video was: Start by coming up with an idea for your short film. This could be inspired by a personal experience, a news story, or just a concept that you find interesting. Write a script for your short film. This should include dialogue, action, and descriptions of the setting and characters. Gather a team of people to help bring your short film to life. This may include actors, a director, a cinematographer, and other crew members. Create a shot list and storyboard for your short film. This will help you visualize each scene and plan out the camera angles and movements. Set up a schedule for filming and rehearse with your cast and crew. Make sure everyone knows their roles and is prepared for the shoot. Choose locations for filming that are suitable for your script and storyboard. You may need to scout out multiple locations before deciding on the final one. Set up the lighting and camera equipment to achieve the desired look and feel for your short film. Re...

Finalizing the filming

Image
  It’s been awhile since I’ve done any modifications on the sequence with me being busy with school and all that. It’s been a long time since I’ve done any work so I decided to discuss with my group on what we should do next moving forward. I and the others knew that we would have to get at least one of these days to film together, so we made a plan and set a date to meet and film. After figuring out each person’s availability, I and the others decided on the upcoming Thursday to film together a major chunk of the scenes. Once Thursday arrived, we all met in an area of a plaza that had the perfect visual of an alley way for the sequence. To begin, I first had the idea of finishing up the beginning scenes that were missing due to just me being apart of the recording. Since Jibril was to be the enemy in this scene, he and Andy were going to be in the scene while I recorded them. The first scenes me and Jibril filmed were the meeting, in which his character would be discovered by mine...
