Production Blog: Managing

   Hey blog, it's me again! With some exciting news, I have started my Music Video! First things first, I have planned out what I am buying to make this video run as smooth as possible. This includes a tripod for filming instances and any other last minute items. I am in charge of distributing work between group members, as I have done so far. In the mall where I will be acting, there is a store called Dillards. This is where the majority of the film will be acted out. However, it is not planned that we will film all in one day. Hour time frames have been allotted, so the group does not feel that the work is overbearing. I hope to accomplish, at the least, the beginning shots of the video. As I feel that once you get started, it is much easier to continue. Rather than procrastinating and trying to get all of the film in one take. I have planned 2-3 days to film and 2-3 days to edit, while the rest of the time will be taken to peer review and make any revisions we feel fit. I am assuming each take is going to take a while to get a hang of, between bloopers and environmental conditions we can't control. Which is why a lot of time will be going towards the mall scenes. This is planned to be completed by the end of this week, or early next week. The next part of the video will be filmed at Holiday park, because this part is very short, I plan to have in completed in one day . After this I will be in control of due dates and overall completion of the music video. This is what I have done so far as an aid in the production of our music video. It is coming along slowly, and I hope you guys enjoy it! Until next time, Kylie.

Final Task: Creative Critical Reflection

Image
1. How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?   Script: The first question here is “how does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it re present social groups or issues?”    In response to the first part of the question I would say:      This product uti lizes common conventions in horror movies. Example s of this include the camera angles, shots, movements, editing, and sound. The movie was mainly based around wide shots, POV shots, over the shoulder shots like the one that you see here in the right corner , and extreme close-ups. The editing incorporated many fade ins to a dd suspens e and create an uneasy atmosphere , directed to wards the audience. This is to ensure that watchers are engaged, and almost feel as if they are in the movie. The daunting music also added to the desired sensation. The main character was vividly distraught throughout the entire movie. With this,...

Production Blog: Peer Review

Image
   Hey blog, I am back with an update! As I mentioned in the previous blog, both the filming and editing portions of my Final Task are finished. What was left was much needed, and this was peer reviewing. I had one of my classmates, Emerson watch over our film and give critiques. Although she was intrigued with the content of the video, the first thing she said was that the transitions were choppy. I had knew this before, it was just very difficult to think I was going to do it seamlessly. However, she did give me a few tricks, or ones that ended up helping her group. The next thing she pointed out was that the music volume was a little low. It is on the lower side of sounds in general, as it gets louder as it continues. But, this will be an easy fix. She also mentioned that some qualities of shots were different than others, not in a good or bad way. Just in one that was asking if we did it intentionally. I told her we did not, and she said it doesn't ruin the overall quality...

Filming Blog: Scenes 6 through 12

Image
 Today is the big day! You may be asking why? Well, it is time we conquer filming the last 6 scenes of our Final Task. Todays work load is heavy, and the only way I planned to get it done was to minimize break time. As I have learned from our previous sessions, my team barely gets anything done after we decide to rest. So, I have made the executive decision that there will be no breaks. For these scenes, I am equally on the camera as I am off the camera. This being said, I will take any opportunity I get to make sure the filming quality is up to par. I play more than one role in this, so costume changes will be made. Although it is nothing too serious, it will improve the quality of the video. One of my partners recently had surgery on her leg, this was not part of our plan, but provisions were made. The majority of our group has siblings, so they will fill in for her role. Fortunately, it was nothing to big, so no burden is made on their behalf. These scenes do involve much more d...
