The Next filming

Image
 So jeni the main character had to film by herself. She had a creepy aesthetic room which fists the scene. From there she decided she could film it in her room. She’ll film herself playing with the doll and talking to it. she said she shot a few scenes for that part. We have to make sure that it is not as long as we need shorter. The mom that’s gonna be calling out to her probably will be her Real one or a made up one. The music is still still be determined but most likely we’ll use the free ones on YouTube. Most likely or such would be at a high angle so you can see the full experience. For this it’ll be better. But then we decided to step in and help her with some of the shots. It wasn’t that hard but we needed to choose another shot to film. As she continue to film she also mentioned that she would have an angle at her feet as she walks into the kitchen. This is where she was transitioning to go eat dinner. I think she’ll include a doll missing. She had to do it a different angles t

Second filming dayyy!

  So, we had the 2nd filming day.  We all were supposed to arrive around 2:00 o'clock. I got there a little bit late because my transportation was taking the bus. It came later than usual, but we still got stuff done. First when we got there we talked about the different scenes. The first scene was the main character filming in her room by herself. We won't be filming this today because she will be filming this on her own. The second scene is the group chat messages.  As we continued, we talked about the angles. Also, what messages are we going to send from the group chat. The third scene is the friends meeting up. They will be discussing what happened to missing doll.  I thought of an idea for the doll to just pop out of nowhere and then we can just end it there. I must introduce it to them though. So we started filming the messages part.  We had to change the contact names and the group chat names. This will make it look like we're having a conversation. After that, we we

Planning our final filming day

We figured a ay we al can film. It is going to be one of the days of spring break. This is when everyone haves transportation. They could also come on at least two of the days. Transportation was figured out for everyone. I decided to take the bus instead of getting a ride. Everyone else has a ride there and will be filming at Naiara’s house. The main character is now available. So now we can finally film. we don't have that many props to work with. All we have is a doll and the phone. We plan on discussing the many filming angles. We want to make it look as realistic as possible. Some of the filming will be done by only the main character at her house. So when we do film, we will all film one together. There's going to be some dialogue in the filming but not as much. We plan to include text messages. These will be for a group chat filmed. We aren't given a lot of time, so we need to focus on the titles. We are definitely looking forward to this.

Music blog

    Alright, so this is the music blog. So instead of reaching out to one of the artists for background music, I decided to go on royalty free music on YouTube. So what I searched up is horror background music. I found this playlist by Kevin MacLeod. it has all the types of what we want and what we think will fit best. Each one is named by a feeling such as horror and anxiety and some are even named by a situation. I believe my other group mates are going to try to email some of the artist of these background sounds. So, in the end we can get them approved. I was thinking. Of upside down and inside out by OK go. For a song suggestion. However, we would have to get copyrights to that song. one of the songs I am considering is on YouTube.   It's called apprehension by the same artist. it has sort of a suspenseful sound. It also leads into like an anticipation. This would really emphasize the film. I'm going to ask my group mates what song they suggest. And I will also tell them t

Canceling a filming day

So our second day of filming is coming up. However, the second day of filming probably won’t go as planned.  We are supposed to film in Friday so we can speed up the process. Jeni which is our main character couldn’t make it because of her situation . Also, transportation has been tricky with some of our group mates and the weather. Instead we discussed on how we need to makes changes to our schedule. This is obviously not really working so we’ll have to change up the dates. Maybe we can pick out days where everyone is required and available to film or edit. Also, we can let each other know beforehand. As previously mentioned, we also talked about some of the title designs. We were maybe thinking making the colors red or some sort of a dark color. We think this’ll be a good idea because it’ll match the theme of everything. We are doing horror as our genre so it only makes sense. Jeni is good at editing so I think she’ll be creative with it. Besides that we are still trying to figure ou

Production blog first day

Wow we are already on the production side of this project.  So this is a filming part . This past Saturday all of my group mates went to film. I couldn’t make it to filming because I needed a ride. I’ve tried to see if I could’ve took in an Uber or a public city bus but those were not good options for me. I didn’t really have money for an Uber and taking the bus was a bit risky . I suggested we filmed after school but people had things going on . But they let me know how filming was like and the whole concept of what we’re doing. Also Jeni is going to do the editing for this project . As she is also the main character. Melvin and Naiara are the friends of the main character. I am also one of the friends too but I could also be the mom yelling but she doesn’t have to be in the scene. We’re all still new to this just a little bit so we they were kind of struggling. Didn’t really tell me too much because I didn’t think they completed that much for me. We might need to reschedule the next
