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 it looked like it was going to rain and there was a slight drizzle. I would say the fact that it didn't rain is a pro in this project. It would've been difficult to find another day where we could all come and film. I am very glad that we managed to film yesterday and everything ended up working out fine.

Genre Research: The Hate U Give

Most people enjoy a good movie while others enjoy a good book. Some people enjoy fun animated movies while others enjoy ones that address issues and problems that go on in this world. These issues range from racism to climate change and pollution. The typical category that films like those fall under is drama. Ask yourself, what is the purpose of a Drama film? Maybe its just to entertain others or maybe its to bring awareness to other political and social problems. Most of the time the issues brought up are the ones people don't know about or disregard. After doing some research my teammates and I were able to find that the main purpose of most drama films is to express the need for social change, communicating a universal theme, recreating and interpreting information, ideas, and emotions. While still being entertaining and divert our attention from our everyday lives. A film that we felt best suited at least three of these categories is called The Hate U Give. This movie is about...

Final Task CCR

Image
Uploaded above, t his is my CCR for my final task. It is a twelve-minute long video. It goes over & answers the CCR questions. I describe and elaborate on things like drama conventions and real media texts. I also go over how I integrated technology for my opening sequence and how my production skills have improved. Along with that, I also just go over things I did during this task. I also described how I worked with my teammates and how we made the title sequence out to be the best it could be. I also go back and reference previous projects and talk about how it has affected me. I will talk about how the stuff I learned in those projects helped me this time. Seeing as though this was our last project, it was certainly a lot to deal with . With the CCR, I had to make some edits to it before I put it onto my blog, which was a hassle to say the least. I had to make sure that I talked long enough during each question, and answered the question clearly and efficiently. This is because ...
