Rapping up production

Image
  We scheduled a day to meet on set and began discussing the changes we needed to make. We went over the feedback in detail, brainstorming ways to improve the pacing, acting, and overall tone of the film. We started by setting up the camera and lighting equipment, making sure that everything was in the right position. We then rehearsed the scenes a few times, making sure that the timing and blocking were improved. Melvin helped with the lighting, ensuring that the shadows were used to improve the mood of the film.

Finally, the music is another incredible as...

Comparing 9 the short film and 9 the full length movie

  So the short film on nine was straight to the point . There wasn’t any dialogue, but you could tell that there     was a beginning, middle and end. It took me a minute to figure out the character development. then I realized after watching the trailer and a short film that they were only trying to survive.     Unfortunately one ended up not surviving.     There was some effects that made it look like an old film and had that cinema look. The impression I got from the plot is that two creations from human for trying to survive. What happened was that being in the war     caused no human to be left. The film, however, had more dialogue to it. It kind of had a flashback to where the human was making this creation. there were a lot of close-ups in the film more than a short filmed, and emphasize that personal feeling to feel like you were there. The character development was clearly there as one is found lost out of a troop and another is tryin...
