Week Two

The storyboard is one key part in making sure our opening has a successful filming/producing experience. So many different technical elements go into making the storyboard. Of course, it is a rough draft to what will become our actual finished product, but it is just as important. In our storyboard I have to include what kind of shot it is, the camera angle, the shot type, the kind of lighting, and sound elements. Since our whole opening is filmed at a Big Car Habitat, I decided that whole lighting is going to be natural since everything is going to be filmed outside. Multiple characters are going to be in scenes, so I decided that there are definitely going to be wide shots to include everything into the frame. As of right now I am more than half-way through our storyboard. I just need to complete the panels that represent the running scene, and the scenes that happen in the cage. My group and I's next step in our project is figuring out what equipment we are going to need to film and making any last-minute adjustments.

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...

Week 2

      Now I am onto week two of our final project! This week I have started our story boards, and I am beginning to write our script. In order to start our storyboard my group and I all decided the script needed to be finished first. Before I could start to write the script, my group and I had to figure out the characters and how they were going to act. In the end my group and I decided on making me the nervous character, Sydney was going to be the aggressive character telling me to suck it up, and the other two weren't going to be scared or confident, more on the neutral side. We also decided we were going to film on 2/19/24 and 2/22/24. This way we have two days to make sure we can get the shots we want. Our costumes are still the same as of right now. The plan is still black ski mask, black pants, black long sleeves, black long pants, and black/neutral-colored shoes. Meadow and I are both planning on the characters showing the least amount of skin possible. This way it...
