 Welcome back! I am going to discuss some of the things that were used in filming this final task. One thing I suggested to be used in this project as a prop is a scary mask as well as a black coverup and some gloves for the killer to wear to make this opening sequence scarier have the costume fit the vibe of a killer. Another prop that was essential in having for this project was a big knife. The knife would be the object used to kill the woman. Along with the knife, I suggested the idea of having fake blood. Although it is not one hundred percent necessary, I liked the idea of it in order to make the killing look more real. The outfits that were suggested for each character was different but limited because not too many clothes could be brought to school by my group mates. The two girls in the film were wearing pretty normal basic outfits that fit the idea of the movie. I suggested that Omnia bring a bathing suit so that way when I would film her falling into the pool after she gets stabbed, it would be more comfortable and fit the scene of her sitting by the pool with her best friend in the film. Although I did want a role in this film, there was not enough time in the day to film a scene that I would be able to be in and it would completely go against the storyboard. I decided to stick to filming the whole project and help throughout the editing process. There were many laughs during filming and overall I had a very fun day filming this project. It took a total of 4 hours to film mainly because my group had to film some scenes in the day and then wait for the sun to go down and film the rest of the scenes at night. Theres more to discuss so catch you later!

 Hello again! There has been a few changes in the filming process. As you know, the filming date for this project is Thursday, March 16, 2023. Some things have changed with the location of filming this project. This project was supposed to be filmed at my dads new and very big modern house that we are moving into in a couple of months. Things changed because my dad is renting out that house to different people before we move in. A couple booked to stay in the house starting today, Tuesday, March 14 all the way through Tuesday, March 28. This had me thinking because the people renting out the house will be there on the date that my group was going to film. The projects deadline is coming up quickly and I knew that my group could not wait two whole weeks before we film so I decided to improvise. I came up with the idea that instead the final task will be filmed at the current house my dad and I are in. This house is smaller but still has most of the necessities that will be needed. T...

Production Blog- Finally Finished Filming

 Hello and welcome back blog!! I have not updated you in a little while. The group and I had been planning on what day to film and finally it was decided that today would be the day. I have already discussed that everyone has super busy lives and it is a little hard to come up for filming days. Today was the last and final day of filming. It is Monday, March 11 and right when me and my group got out of school at 2:40, we went straight to my house in order to regroup and discuss further scenes that needed to be filmed. After the group got to my house, filming started shortly after. First, I discovered that the amber alert scene needed to be filmed and that was done by changing contact names to the names of the girls in the short films and a voiceover affect of the amber alert saying the name of the girl who is missing. Then, a couple scenes of Ellie trying to call Olivia in the short film and crying, needed to be filmed. After about an hour of completing these scenes, it was then ti...
