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.

Production Blog- Continuation of filming

 Hello and welcome back blog. It was decided that the new filming date would be Saturday March 2nd. I work from 9-5 that day but I will be going after work to film the night scenes. The only thing I am worried about is when the school scenes are going to be filmed. Very soon, editing and putting together the film needs to begin because it does take a lot of time for this to come together and our deadline is March 15 to have the movie as well as website and postcard completely done. Carleigh is still putting together the website and it is taking a bit longer than I would like because I need the link to make the QR code for my postcard. The plan on Saturday is to film more at night around 6 for it to be dark so we will be able to film the night scenes of the grave as well as when the flashbacks in the short film occur in the dark. Carleigh said that she should be getting the website done in a couple days. Jenna is going to have to start editing the film together once we get a bunch m...

Production Blog- Drawbacks

 Hello and welcome back blog! Today was a day of learning and gaining new information on different media studies and theorists. In media today, I learned about media ecology and all the ways it can help us understand filming and how to apply it to our knowledge of media. It was very interesting to learn about and realize how much our society and media has changed over the years and how well communication has transformed things in our modern society. I also discussed with my group that because of my work schedule, it can be difficult to plan what days to film for the final task. I suggested that filming could take place on days that I do not work and everyone is not busy and going to Jenna’s house for filming after school would be a good plan. Weekends are very busy for me and it would be difficult to set an exact day to film for right now. One day next week, the plan would be to film after school but I will let you know for sure what day it is that filming is done. There were a cou...

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.
