Production Blog; Filming Again

 Today Nicole and I filmed the rest of our scenes. After school, my mom picked up Nicole and I from the front so she could drive us around. After she picked us up, we discussed what we would be doing. Even though I talked to my mom about it beforehand she wanted more detail. I told her that Nicole and I needed to film some scenes in the car, in the house, and at an ice cream place. My mom took us straight to Menchies where we recorded the scene and talked for a while. Nicole has never had frozen yogurt before so I was excited to take her for the first time. After Menchies, there was a family emergency so my mom drove us to where we needed to go. While Nicole and I were waiting in the car, we decided that this would be a good time to film out scenes. Nicole and I filmed the scene with a couple bloopers but still made it through. My mom took Nicole and I out to eat and then took us back to my house, or her house I guess. Nicole and I ate our food and decided to start filming our scenes. We had to go downstairs and put the phone up on a street light so there would be halfway decent lighting since it was almost dark out. We got the scene and headed back upstairs. Lastly, we shot the dancing scene. Since the music video we are using the song to has a lot of dancing, we only thought it would be fit that we incorporated some sort of dancing even though it was very awkward. Since we were in the same place we decided to shoot a scene we planned on doing separately. We found the music we needed and went to work. It didn't take long to do it because we are of course naturals. We looked over the scenes and were happy with everything.

Let's Talk

As seen in the last blog, you know that my team and I were unable to film. We were unable to film because Pedro didn't feel well so we just cancelled the entire day. Since we cancelled everything there wasn't much for us to do so we waiting until we got back to school. Today we were able to meet back up in class to talk about what we needed to do. In class we talked about why we cancelled since Pedro didn't tell me why and what we did during that day. Since we have a long period we took a break in between to do other things. Once we realized the time, we decided to talk about the upcoming plans for our film. The part that takes us the most to come up with is the date. Since Nicole and I have jobs we have to coordinate our schedule, especially our weekend schedule since we are usually jam-packed. I don't know much about Pedro's schedule since we don't talk much outside of school. We know for sure Pedro doesn't have a job so he shouldn't have a problem wit

Gente Research (Comedy)

     My group and I are also researching comedy. As much as we want action, we also need to laugh. A comedy would also be a lot easier for us since we can just be ourselves. Comedy movies have a lot of close- ups, pans, long shots, and zooms. Close ups allow you to lead your audience into a more intimate setting. You can literally bring your audience closer to the action. And it emphasizes the importance of what we see. But as the push continues, it all breaks, letting viewers know they're watching a comedy movie.Long shots  give an overall context to the scene and usually lets viewers know that what we’re seeing right now isn’t the whole picture... until it zooms all the way out. Static shots, or stand still shots, build suspense. In comedy movies it allows room for the characters to correct themselves or something, Almost like a "wait for it" moment. Zooms emphasize expressions shown throughout the film. Props used in comedy films range from nothing to everything- like

Research Blog for Music Video

My partner and I are making our music video on “Let Me Love you” by Mario. Usually in R&B songs like this one, the audience would see a storyline. The audience sees the conflict or whatever is happening in the story and the singer trying to get the main character's attention or singing to the main character, unless they are the main character.   In R&B videos, the singer, if it's a male, is usually seen wearing baggy jeans and baggy tee shirts. It's a casual outfit that was very popular in 2000's fashion. In R&B videos, the  women tend to wear basic 2000's fashion, jeans and crop tops, button ups, berets, off the shoulder shirts, and others, all paired with denim, since denim was so popular back then.   The lighting varies in videos, but it depends on the vibe and scenery of the video. Most videos have dim lighting, but some scenes have bright and direct lighting. Other videos can be completely bright or dim, it all depends on the mood.  The acting thro
