Week 2

 I am starting to work on our storyboards. In order to film a storyboard is crucial to making sure the opening will flow good and our ideas are fully developed. I have already completed the script that we are going to use. In total I have added 9 lines of dialogue because I decided that we don't want too much talking. the less talking, the more the mysterious mood will be portrayed. Also, during our midterm project instead of our opening being one minute it ended up being 4. A big part of that was there was too much dialogue which made the scenes drag on for too long. In our script I made sure to add when we would cut, when the running scene will start, how we are starting the whole opening, and sound effects that will be happening. Obviously not all sound effects we will have will be portrayed on the script, but it is just to give my group and I a basic idea of what we want. The start of our opening will be a shot from each side of the car showing the break in people getting out of a truck. Now my next step for the week will be finishing our storyboard based off the script.

WEEK 8

 My fourth and final creative critical reflection is a PowerPoint. The question I answered with the PowerPoint is, "How did you integrate technologies- software, hardware and online- in this project?"  Creating the PowerPoint: The reason I wrote my script before I started to make my PowerPoint was because I used the script to help me layout my PowerPoint slides. Basically, on the slides I added minimal detail, basically just words and pictures that corresponded with what I would talk about. This way the person listening would have visuals to look at, but they would have to listen to what I was saying instead of just being able to read the slide and already knowing what I am going to say. If I wrote out all the information, I was going to say out on the PowerPoint it would be boring for the viewers listening in on what I have to say. Filming: On PowerPoint there is an option to record straight on the app, so I didn't have to record me talking on a separate app and then hav...

Our Movie Opening

 

Day Two of Filming week 5

      Our second production day was on Monday February 26, 2024. Peyton, Meadow, Ella, Sydney, Ella's dad (Clayton), and I arrived back at Big Cat Habitat to finish our filming. We all arrived at 4:30. The equipment we ended up using again was just the steady camera holder. We decided to arrive around the same time to make sure the lighting would look close to the same as the first production day. The first scene we started with was with Ella's dad jumping out and confronting us. Since that shot was filmed as a Point of View shot in my character's point of view, I stood behind a fence that was off-screen and signaled to Ella's dad when he should pop out. I would look at where the girls were stepping and when they were close to a line on the pavement in front of the gift shop I would signal a thumbs-up to Ella's dad to jump out. Then we filmed the chasing scene at different angles for the next 30 minutes. After we went to shoot the scenes of us locking ourselves into...
