Planning Blog: Safety, Schedule, and Other Information


  PROPS

The props that I will be using for the final task are cell phones. In which actors will be using to hold a phone call and text.

COSTUMES


There will be a variety of costumes used for different scenes of the music video. The first couple of scenes and the last scene will introduce a casual outfit to go with the setting. Then getting into the later scenes the actors will be in pajamas as the second scene will take place in a more secluded space.


SCHEDULE


2/24- Plan out the codes and conventions for the music video to make sure everything runs smoothly. This includes the safety precautions, filming locations, costumes, and the backup plan.

2/25- Start storyboarding how I want scenes of the final task to look during the production phase.

2/27- Start reviewing the script that was made to make sure that no changes want to be made to it.

3/6- Start during practice runs to make sure everything looks good on camera as the first day of filming for the final project.

3/10- Start doing the reals runs for the final task so that I can stay on track to finish on time.

3/17-3/28 Start editing the gathered clips and see how everything meshes to make sure no scenes need to be filmed over again to improve quality.

4/3-4/4- Show the finished product of the final task to parent to see if they think it is good or not.

4/7-4/13- Make any changes based upon any comments that were made about the initial film that I made.

5/15- Upload the final task in which I worked super hard on to YouTube for viewing. 


LOCATIONS

For the music video I will be filming at 1 location depending on how well things play out.  The only filming location will be at my home with one scene being outside and the rest being inside.


SAFETY PLAN

While filming at night I want to make sure that there is at least enough light so that they don’t trip over any obstacles that may be present. If I go to the park, I will remain aware of my surroundings to make sure danger is not imminent in the area before I start filming my scenes and throughout the course of filming.


BACKUP PLAN

If a situation were to present itself so that I was not able to film at my own home. I would film at the park, and if it starts raining, I will relocate to my aunt's house because she has a covering over her backyard which would allow me to film whatever I need to film.

Genre Research: Horror

  Horror films are designed to scare the audience and inflict certain emotions into them. The different aspects when it comes filming and editing horror has been investigated. To see what really goes into making a horror film pop out at an audience. For starters, the common lighting used in horror films is low lighting. It creates a mysterious mood that builds tension, stress, and fear. So that the audience will stay on their toes never knowing when something will pop out to scare them. Frequently used camera shots includes close-up shots, over-the-shoulder shots, low angle shots, high angle shots, and canted angle shots.

THE FINAL TASK

Image
 This final is something that I have spent a lot of time making sure that it was perfect. I spent almost five days filming the scenes for the final task, because I wanted every scene to be done with maximum effort. The editing process also took a long time to get done consuming at least 4 to 5 hours out of two days. While editing this final task I got stressed out but I kept going because I knew it would be worth all of the hard work. Sometime even requiring me to take a step back to avoid overworking myself and becoming too stressed. I had to improvise at one point and start to adjust the order in which the clips were placed so they matched up with the music. That was probably the only bad experience that I had but once I finished that up and was able to reflect on everything I was able to accomplish  I  and enjoyed myself. I've improved my editing and filming skills over the course of this project which shows in the final product. I even had a little fun with it and too...
