Let's Go Again

 Here we are again. Another day of filming amongst us. Today my group and I filmed another part of our final project. We filmed at Nicole's house again since that's where we decided we would be filming mostly all of the film. When we were all at Nicole's we sat and discussed which scenes we filmed. I had brought my duffel bag so we decided to film some of the park scenes that we could. Deciding this, we used Pedro's car to drive to a large grassy area near Nicole's house. I wouldn't consider it a park since there were not play equipment, but there was enough space to do what we had to do. We pulled up to the park and looked over the script to see what we were doing. The first thing I did was hop out the car and go over what everyone was supposed to do. There is a scene where I am supposed to get a call from an unknown number and since we were recording on Nicole's phone, Pedro called me from *67 so the call would come up from unknown. Nicole filmed my scenes where I was supposed to be on the phone with Pedro, and we redid anything if there were any mistakes. We then went over Pedro and Nicole's lines and I recorded them on Nicole's phone. In the park scenes, there is a scene where I am supposed to be walking and Pedro and Nicole are supposed to ride past me and I am not Supposed to notice. In this scene I am just walking straight ahead and Nicole is supposed to be watching me out of the car window. Since the area was pretty large I had a while to walk. I had to keep walking because Pedro and Nicole kept laughing while they were trying to film and kept having to reshoot the one scene. They finally drove past me and I stopped walking because it was very hot outside. Pedro turned back around to come get me. By this point we were all tired and worn out from filming, we went back to Nicole's house and then all ended up going our separate ways. We will be back filming again soon.

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- ...

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 ac...
