Production Blog- Discussing Filming plans

 Hello blog and welcome back! I am so very excited to be filming soon with my group. For the filming date being set February 25, i might need to discuss with my group a change in time. On this day being sunday, I work a full time job while also balancing school and school projects. On the 25th, I believe I do have work because my job is understaffed and it is much harder to be able to get days off. I would need to discuss with them maybe a better day that we would have most of the daylight to film. I want to make sure we enjoy it as much as possible. On the 10th of February, me and the girls are going to Jenna’s house for a galentines gathering and we thought it would be a great idea to get a little filming done during this time. The gathering is when the sun goes down so I am planning to film night scenes in our short film during this time. It works well because there will be outfit changes throughout the short film to really make it look like our scenes are in different days and different hours of the day. I do not want the short film to be only one outfit and sunlight the entire time. I want to give the audience the view that our short film is in the span of a couple days or weeks to give a better understanding of whats going on. I am so excited to film this short film because I really do love the mystery genre and it is something I have not really done before. I think it is so cool to gain knowledge and experience trying new things and stepping out of your comfort zone. So far everything is going very smoothly and everyone is super excited to film. The hardest part about this is picking what date to film because everyone has such busy lives with studying, having other plans, and work in general. I again do need to discuss with my group if the 25th is still a good filming day due to work kind of messing with the schedule. Thank you for listening and see you shortly with the next blog.

Movie Conventions Research: A Quiet Place

What elements of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?  The main element of the thriller genre that A Quiet Place has it’s the non-diegetic and diegetic sound. 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...
