Welcome back! Hope everyone is doing fine on this lovely day. So... editing! Let us get into it. To start off editing, as you know, I had to find sounds that were royalty free and would be a good background sound for the whole opening sequence. I went on youtube and found a sound that is a bit eerie and creepy and fits perfectly into this film. Next, title cards. Throughout the opening sequence, I included all the title cards in a font that is not normally used because it is more ugly and creepy which I think adds to the idea of the film. When editing, there was a scene that my group and I forgot to film and so I had to go to my car at 11pm and turn on my car alarm and get a video of me turning it off. It was meant to be Omnia turning off the car alarm being the actor in the movie but because this scene was forgotten till last minute, I had to go out and do it and it came out good. Editing has been a little hard because there has been very bad weather in Florida causing for much flooding and schools been canceled so editing ideas have had to be shared over the phone and it was a little more difficult but my group and I were able to work through it. Lastly, some transitions and small effects like black screens and blur effects were added just to give some scenes a little more depth. Overall, the editing process went smoothly for the most part. Filming this whole project was very fun and I had a great time with my group throughout it all. Thanks for coming on the journey with me and I can not wait to show you the final product next time!

 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...

Production Blog- Getting things done

 Hello and welcome back blog!!! I am really sad because me and my group were supposed to film on Sunday, February 25. I had work from 9-5 that day but I was planning on going over to Jenna’s after work that day, so was the rest of the group. Unfortunately, Jenna came down with a really bad illness that prevented her from being able to film. Now, me and the group need to come up with a new filming day. Jenna has not been to school in a couple of days because of how sick she is. My group needs to get filming done soon because the short film is going to be due March 15. My group needs to discuss new filming dates but we are thinking of Friday March 1st or Saturday or Sunday. I have almost completed the postcard fully. Carleigh was making the website on Square Space and after she completed the entire site, it asked her to pay in order for her to publish the website for it to be available for the public. This was a bit of a set back because I need the link of the website to create a QR ...
