Production Blog

 Hello! Welcome to production. I am truly so excited to film this opening sequence final task. There was much discussion about where and when my group and I would film this final task opening sequence. I had the idea to film this project at my dads new house. My dad owns two houses and the one that the project is going to be filmed at is the house that me and my dad are moving into very soon. I had come up with this location to film because of the fact that the opening sequence is about a girl moving into her new home so having a very sharp looking new home is an amazing idea for this project. Due to the house not being moved into yet, there is no mess or clothes or anything lying around causing it to be so believable as to the fact the girl is truly moving in. The backup house would have been Harley's house but me as well as the group believed that filming at my house would be the perfect option. Every time there was a plan to film this opening sequence, the group could not really get it together because someone always had plans that were hard to get out of. Finally, I came up with a date that is going to be the beginning of Spring Break and that everyone in the group should be free to film on this day. The date is most likely going to be Thursday, March 16, 2023. I came up with this date because it is an early release day and then the next day there is no school and the next week is Spring Break. That Thursday would definitely be the best day to film because I can most likely provide transportation from the school to my house for the other group mates. If any issues come up, then either Wednesday, March 15 or Friday, March 17 would be the backup days. I enjoyed talking to you and see you next time!

It’s mainly used to show what the characters are heading, and to highlight how quiet the world is, because of how loud those small movements are that we don’t tend to notice. Such as walking or placing down something on a shelf. There’s also non-diegetic sound, which is used to build suspense when there’s climax’s of action. My group will use diegetic and non-diegetic sound to also have this element. What elements of the genre did the movie have that you like?  In A Quiet Place the monsters that are hunting them are almost never directly shown. They’re shown in blurs and just in sound. You know there is danger, but you don’t know who or what’s behind it. It’s one of the elements my group enjoyed within this movie. It builds the suspense, because you draw your own conclusions and the u...

I am so beyond sad that everything is now complete and filming is over. It truly was such a blast to be able to film so much with my friends and make a pretty good short film. I will miss the process of filming this short film. There were many ups and downs but overall the experience in A level media has been a fun process and I am proud of how hardworking me and my group were making this short film.
