 Hey bloggers, Tiffanie again. Misharma and I still have not filmed. I’ve been out of town like I said the last blog. O even came to the same town I’m in. She came this weekend. Now she’s back home however I’m still here. My out of town vacation has been very relieving. I’ve been relaxing and hanging with my family. This break was very much needed. I feel as though if I didn’t have this break now my mental health would be terrible. Before the spring break I was at my breaking point. The filming process is expected to be smooth. We’ll be meeting up at my house as previously said. We’ll most likely meet up around 2 or 3 Pm. We’ll be meeting up at this time so we’re able to catch sunlight. My brother will come with me to her house just like last time. We have a scene where we’re getting ready to go to the mall. So, we’ll have another outfit prepared. When I get to my house we’ll call her friends to come over. Then, we’ll get to filming all our scenes. Editing will start the day after ...

  Hey bloggers! My partner and I are very excited to film this video.We are deciding on what day we should start filming. We were thinking about filming this weekend on Saturday. We want to make sure that both of our schedules are free to be able to have enough time to film this. We came to a conclusion that this week and will probably not be the best. It is very close. It is two days away and she does not have a ride to my house. Transportation is a big deal. Although we want to film we have to make it accessible to the people that will bring us. We are hoping that we can film either during spring break or the weekend after. We are making sure that we both have a clear schedule during spring break. We feel like in order to make this film we will need both of us. If only one of us is doing the whole project it wouldn’t be as creative. Also, seeing the same person in every scene isn’t very entertaining. In filming this clip, we are going to use a few of my neighborhood friends. My n...

 Hey bloggers! As expected we did not get to film last Saturday. Misharma had an event to attend. I was also pretty busy aswell . It was for very important family business. So, we couldn’t meet up that day. Instead, we want to film this upcoming Saturday. This saturday is the day we’ve been sure we’ll be filming. However, there might be a chance that we can’t film together. There’s a possibility that I’ll be going out of town this week. I really need this break. It’s going to be very helpful with clearing my mind and relieving my stress. I’ll be going out of town with my brothers. I won’t be coming back home until early April. Thankfully, our video won’t be due yet. So, I’m not going to be able to film with them. Due to this, Misharma is going to film the other scenes that I’m not present in. She’ll film with the other actors in our film. This will be easy for her since they all live in the same neighborhood. I’ll be calling to help them when they film. So, just in case if I needs ...

  Hey bloggers! My partner and I are very excited to make this film. We have been discussing some things that we want to do with it. Although we made a storyboard plan, which we sketched. Along the lines we might think of something more creative or better to use. So if we think of something better will add it as we go. We are deciding on what day we should start filming. We were thinking about filming this weekend on Saturday. But we want to make sure that both of our schedules are free to be able to have enough time to film this. In filming this clip, we are going to use a few of my neighborhood friends. My neighborhood friends are very open to help us on this project. I haven’t yet asked my neighborhood friends if they want to help but they have helped in the past with the commercial film. So I’m sure that they’ll be very open to helping. When filming this we want to have really good quality. Both my partner and I have iPhones. She has a higher updated iPhone than me so we will b...

Hey bloggers, My partner and I wanted to start filming this Saturday. However, this most likely will not be able to happen. I will be in pain that weekend due to cramps and etc. I may fight through the pain or we’ll have to film another day in the week. Also, I has an event to attend. So, we’ll have to start filming another day. The scenes will still be filmed at my house and neighborhood. Now moving onto the topic of editing. My partner I will be using IMovie to edit the opening scene per usual. We’ll be using this because we have experience with this app. Tiffanie will be the one adding the music. However, with editing the clips this kind of depends on which phone we record on. Most likely we’ll record on mine so I’ll be the one editing the clips. With editing the clips that means I’ll have to either slow down, fasten the pace, or crop something out of the frame. The previous project we did together we did these exact jobs. So, that means we’ll be doing the same tasks as before. Also...

Hey bloggers! My partner and I continued our research on title sequence within thriller film. This time we researched the movie Irréversible. We did all our research on the website watchthetitles.com. This title research helps us determine how we should execute our titles in our film. Irréversible is a French film. We chose this film because it adds more variety to the other ones we researched so far. During this sequence the opening credits and title of the movie is displayed. These titles are written with some flipped letters and words. It adds to the sense of suspense. The titles start slipping to the side to then completely “tumble” off the screen. Technology that’s used effectively is the editing techniques. The music used is an example of this. The music played during the opening sequence is very essential to the genre. There’s either a high drum playing or sometimes complete silence. This begins when the words got bigger and were pulsating. This is what helps the filmmaker play ...

Hey bloggers!My partner and I continued to do title research. This time we did research on a movie called Lady in a Cage. We did our research using the website artofthetitle.com. This title research helps us because these movies are within the same genre as our film. The titles displayed during the opening sequence is the Paramount logo. When seeing this logo you notice that there’s vertical stripes. It also states the production company, main characters, and crediting everyone else involved. Then, states the title. The vertical stripes used in this opening emphasizes the idea of the cage. The images shown in this sequence include a girl rolling her skate up and down a man’s leg, a dog lying dead in the street, and cars passing by. These images bring forth a disturbing and concerning outlook. However, this is the job of the images. The images and title designs help bring forth the sense of thriller while also appealing to the target audience. People who like thriller are more likely to...
