Final Task

-



We have come to the end of this filming and editing project. Its been a rough, long, but fun ride. We faced complications with putting together our storyboard. Our original isn't the same as our final one. We've made many changes due to location and actors needed to be involved. It was hard to find a day to film and when we finally found the day, many things didn't go as planned. We managed to make it through to get through the editing process, in which we had troubles with too. Luckily, we managed to resolve most of our problems to come out with our final product. The point of our idea is to let our audience know things don't have to come to an end so soon. You have to make the most of the time you have left. In our film, the girls decide to make the most of their time left together by completing a bucket list. We aren't just sending a message for people with cancer such as leukemia. This message goes to anyone who is or knows someone who's time will be up soon. Working with my team members has been fun. We never went through any arguments. We always worked as a team and I believe this is what helped us make it through to the end. We all learned new things, yet again from one another that may be beneficial to us in the future.

Yesterday we finally began filming. We all managed to meet up at the park to start filming the scenes. Both Ciaya and Idline brought their cameras which was very helpful with filming. At first, we were told we couldn't get into the park because they have an event going on. We found that switching locations last minute may be an issue that could mess everything up and we didn't want to have to do that. Luckily, we manage to convince the worker and he allowed us to film for 2 hours. This park happened to not have some details seen in our storyboard. For example, the park didn't have a pond but I came up with an alternate previously just in case this were to happen. We found a bathroom and used it to film. We didn't have to change any dialogue, everything fit perfectly. Also, we used a camera instead of a phone camera to record the shots. It allowed the whole film to look more like a film and made the zoomed in parts much better due to the lens. When we all first arrived i...

Filming Blog For My CLOROX WIPES Commercial

 On October 30th, I started filming my CLOROX WIPES commercial. I filmed my clips into multiple sections, so therefore I can compile them all into my editing software. I had to set up my tripod with the good lighting for my commercial before I started. I then got the plastic bags I needed with the CLOROX Wipes inside like I stated in my planning for my commercial. As me being the only director for this commercial, I prepared my props and items for filming. I strategically placed the my props next to my "actors" to get the effect of the commercial. I have taken multiple shots so I can get the best angles for my commercial.  I also set up my placement of where the actors would be. For the last clip I took a picture of the product to showcase it. The filming process took a little over an hour to film. Although I used my IPhone camera, I tried to make my film as clear as possible, seeing as though I didn't film with a professional camera. I did multiple takes and filming this...

  We are now coming to the closing of editing our project. For starters, we found a way to edit in a cross fade at the beginning of the opening as well as slide thirteen through fourteen. Ciaya researched tips on how to make one. I was searching for an app that could create the cross fade for us but they all cost money. Luckily we all put our minds together so Rohanna could edit it on iMovie. After fixing that, we had to work out cutting down the time to the required length which was two minutes. During filming, our scenes came out to be long and everything we recorded was needed. We had to figure out what parts of the clips were more necessary than others. We agreed to remove some clips and trim down the ones we kept. After cutting down the video to two minutes, we decided on filters. We wanted to put filters over the video to add better lighting. We went with a bright filter rather than a black and white filter due to our film being a romance drama. Although editing was a bit dif...
