Production Blog: Filming During The Break

 Previously, I discussed how I recorded two scenes I needed for the final task. I managed to start editing those scenes as well but I never finished. So, this week I continued that editing process. I did anything that I was too tired to do last week. Now that I'm done editing those scenes, my main goal is to record the rest. I don't want to rush anything so I won't record everything in a day but I plan to record the majority of my final task over my break.

Today is the start of spring break. Which is a whole week off with no school. Meaning I'm free from homework and my schedule is no longer busy. Of course I'll use this break to relax and prepare for the fourth quarter but I have one more idea in mind. I will take this break to my advantage and use it to start filming again. I want to film scenes that are more prominent than the others. Which are the ones that I know have to be in the opening sequence. This also applies to scenes that I know I normally wouldn't have time to shoot on a regular school day. These scenes will probably take up most of my day.  And maybe like last time I'll get tired and want to rest for the remainder of the day. I'm not entirely sure yet but I hope I have the upmost energy to film all that I can. However, like I said before I don't want to rush anything. Good pacing is one of the most important qualities in a movie. If I rush trying to make my opening sequence, imagine how rushed it'll feel to the viewer. I'm not too worried about how everything will play out because I'm sure I'll make the best decision no matter what.

As of right now that's my plan but I'm sure it could always change. Whatever changes need to be made will be made and what ever problems I'll have will be solved. Hopefully everything goes to plan and nothing comes up. Even so, I can work around it and find a way to still film.

Production Blog: Back to Filiming

 Over the 3 day weekend, I used all the time I had to my advantage. I'm really proud of myself and what I got accomplished. Filiming was surprisingly easier than anticipated. Although it took longer than I expected; everything was organized and planned to perfection. I had the best lighting, no interruptions, and my cousin seemed to know what she was doing. So we also had an amazing time together filming. I honestly believe it made us closer, which is a plus. Watching the scenes we recorded together gave us the opportunity to reshoot and modify things that needed to be changed. For example, how the pillow was positioned or my facial expression. She contributed to a lot and I really think without her help this wouldn't be possible.  Moreover, like mentioned beforehand, the scene that we recorded took a long time to shoot. We spent 2 whole days on it and lucky for me she decided to spend the night. So time was not a factor while we were filming because we had all the time in the

CeraVe Commercial

(I've uploaded the video using two different methods just in case one method doesn't work.) My journey of making my first official AICE Media project has finally come to a close. From here on, I know what to expect; and this is definitely a class I have to work my hardest on. Doing this project was just a taste of what I have to do next and I'm prepared for it. With this project, I guarantee I tried my absolute best. Additionally, I want to acknowledge that I will improve my skills as well. I understand I could have made the commercial have a cooler storyline or made it slightly more entertaining. However, I wanted to follow the conventions of a skincare ad and usually, those types of things don't happen. I know for next time I should do my project however I want, creativity is key. I want to entertain my audience so they enjoy watching. I'll continue to improve by finding new techniques on how to accomplish this. (Perhaps more research could help). Also, I did a de
