Changes Made From Film Review

After the constructive feedback, I made many changes to my movie. After I had showed my brother, I also showed other family members and friends. Multiple people told me that it needed to be creepier and give the audience a sense of terror. From this, I added a filter that made the scenes darker. This gave an eerie effect that improved my movie. Additionally, the most important thing I needed for my movie to even be graded entirely was the time. I need 21 more seconds to complete the two minutes. Therefore, my group got together and was able to finish up what was left of the scenes. The shots turned out amazing and I am very grateful to have them in my group. To continue, I made the font of the credits red and seem as if it was blood. This would make it fit my theme of blood-curdling murders amongst the friend group. Also, I made them around 2 to 3 seconds in length for there to be enough time for the audience to see but not too much that it's taking away attention from the actual scenes itself. Next, I fixed the jump cut scenes that were inserted spontaneously. To make it neater, I spaced out the timing between each clip for there to be enough time to see each setting. Then, I moved the credits to be in a spot where you can observe both the letters and the scenes clearly. In addition, I made the title size bigger for it to be noticeable to the crowd that it is in fact the title of the entire movie. Furthermore, another thing people noticed in the film was that there was no lead up. Everything seemed rushed and there was no reasonable context on what was occurring. Due to this, my group and I inserted the newly-filmed scenes that would help build up the action in the movie. I feel like what my group and I have altered so far from the feedback we received will assist us in making the best introduction to a movie that we can.

Production Blog: Props

Before my group and I start filming, I want to give a brief overview of the props that I will be using throughout my film. First, I will need to buy a bulletin board for the scene where the stalker's room is shown. Here, there will be pictures of Chloe and her information including birth certificates, grade reports, and other legal documents. There will be manila folders that one of my groupmates bought and red yard with push pins to make the scene look even more realistic and set the creepy aesthetic. The picture of "Chloe" is really an image of Lili, one of my groupmates. She is still having difficulty choosing a picture but the film will be better-suited if it was a close-up portrait with just her in it. This will allow the viewer to see that Rachel, the stalker, is strictly keen on Chloe. There will be pictures in the folder and an additional portrait in a frame that we must buy as well. Furthermore, I will need glasses for the stalker, Rachel, so she could be "h...

My group and I did our first day of filming on September 29. We needed other props to record some of the scenes, therefore we did what we could with what we had at the moment. Our roles this day varied from person to person. Lili changed her outfit to look more vintage which will be the theme for our commercial. In addition, Lili who is playing "Leila" was acting as if she had forgotten her backpack in the first scene that we were able to take. Aleiah who is sitting next to her does a little shuffle and looks to both sides as if she were confused and then ran out of the camera. This was our first scene that we took, because we all decided that it would be a good idea to have our base done before we continue shooting the rest of the commercial. The middle part of our commercial could not be completed yet, because as I had said earlier, we were missing some props. With the time remaining, we then shot the last scene where "Leila" is walking up the stairs. Therefore, o...
