Welcome back, Sappies. I know it's been super long...but it's been with good reason. Like I'd said in my previous blogs, one of my team members, Valentina, was hospitalized. She was discharge in a bit over a week, but still couldn't film with us due to having to heal. Only recently, she was doing well enough to be able to film. So, we finally filmed! And with that, comes my update for you, Sappies. We started to film the first scene and a few others at my house. We had Valentina filming and Sabrina and I were the actresses'. Some of the scenes we were filming though, were meant to look like they were in different locations. So we used different rooms and different props and decorations in the background to emphasize that one scene was in my room at my house and the other scene was in Sabrina's room at her house. We mostly used over-the-shoulder and wide shots. We also got to filming the opening scene of the music video which was the 'get ready with me...
Part |: - My takeaway from this video is that there are many key differences between films and photo novels, and those differences are essential to understand how an audience perceives different media forms. This includes but is not limited to acting, plot, story-telling, and editing. - Some good information I gathered while processing this video was how important the plot is as well as a climax to a film. It is hard to write a script, but as good as other elements of a film may be, without a plot there is nothing your audience can grip onto for the duration of the film and can be the downfall of what could've been great. It is good to have an idea but it is crucial to be able to execute it. - I envision this helping me through my short film process by helping me think more about whether or not an audience understands my film based off the script and not just whether or not I understand it. It will help me keep in mind that in this case I have to keep people's attention and in...
Welcome back, Sappies. In today's blog we'll be going over the beginning of the creative process for my commercial. Better know as the Charmmercial. Per usual, I'm using CapCut to edit my clips together. No this is not sponsored, but CapCut is truly the best free editing app I've used. Take the advice from someone who loves to edit. Anyways, Sappies, first up is the intro. Now, me, I am not one for boring intros. I cannot stand when a commercial has a boring start. That is the exact reason the "Skip Ad" button exists. The point of my commercial though, is to have a cute start. So that you don't feel like clicking that button. So to be a bit creative, I first started off with a long horizontal black screen, super cute. (For those of you in need of some help, that's called sarcasm.) I added the rest of my clips- the photos and videos- in order to have them all lined up horizontally, to really give my commercial that "on a TV" sort of effect. I...
