Music Blog: Let's choose a song

Image
     Hello there! Welcome back to my blog!! Today we are going to talk about an important topic for this project which is music!! First of all, before talking about the music choosing the group and I were looking for the background noise of the film, I want to talk about why choosing the correct music is important and my overall music is important for a film. When creating a movie, music plays a crucial role in arousing emotions and establishing the tone and ambiance of the picture. Excitement, mystery, and suspense may all be evoked by music. It may help me communicate crucial information or emotions, set the tone and setting for a scenario, and establish a certain environment. I may give my film a mysterious atmosphere by selecting the appropriate soundtrack. Using a piece of enigmatic and menacing music to heighten the suspense and create a feeling of curiosity is one of the best strategies. A mysterious or dramatic sound effect can inspire a sense of mystery and ...

Editing Blog: My editing process

Image
    Hello everybody, and welcome back to my blog, to recap my previous blog I talked about my bad experiences with editing, but I also mentioned in the end that even though I was struggling in the editing department I also learned some good things. One main thing is that filmmaking can offer many benefits to both personal and professional growth. First of all, editing has helped me enhance my technological skills, e diting involves a high level of technical expertise and understanding, which may be applied to various aspects of production beyond the editing process. Understanding how editing works may help me get a better understanding of film technology, making me a more useful contributor to any project that I might do in the future. Adding on to that another thing I learned is the foundation of collaboration, film editing is frequently a team effort, and I have experienced this sense I have been put into a group to help each other out during our editing and filming process....

Editing blog: Let's edit!

Image
    Hello there everybody, I am back again and with. new blog for today, to recap the last two blogs I talked about, I was talking about my dislikes and likes about filming, but in this blog, I am going to focus on what happens after filming which is editing. In my own opinion, I did mention before that filming was my favorite part of doing this project, editing, on the other hand, was not the thing I was so excited to participate in but it was bearable. When everybody was picking out their roles for the final task my role was to film but after filming there we a lot of clips put together so as a group decision, everybody took different parts of what to edit. There were a lot of obstacles that came my way I was in charge of adding in a dissolving scene which meant that the start of the clip the starting scene was going to be pixilated to the point you could not see the original scene and then the pixels will merge back together to show a different scene. I will say this was th...

Re- shooting Blog: Let's talk about filming!

Image
     Hello there! Welcome back, I am very pumped to talk more about my filming experience, like I said in my last blog I had so much fun being able to film and I was very fond of being the cameraman. If I remember correctly I only talked about the things I really liked or enjoyed doing during the filming process but even though it was fun and all it did not mean there were parts of the day I felt awkward or stressed while filming. So in this blog, I want to focus on and talk about the things I disliked while filming. To start one of the things I did not enjoy while filming was the stares that I got while filming, in all honesty, I should have expected it since the team and I filmed in a very public place which was the South Florida Fair. The stares were pretty weird and made me feel uncomfortable but I tried to ignore the people who stared because it was getting really distracting and ruined some scenes because I would start to divert the camera away from the actors and t...

Filming Blog: Filming time!

Hello there again! It is me! I am so happy I can finally talk about my filming process with everyone, it really has been an awesome journey. This final task has been so much fun to do and I enjoyed it so much, in my opinion, I really liked the filming process of this task. I might be a bit biased since I did most of the filming but it is my journey. So in this blog, I will talk about some things I really liked doing as the designated camera person. When my group started to pick out who was going to do what such as who was going to edit, film, and act, I volunteered to film and I am very happy that I was able to film. I will say that I was not the best filmer in the world but I think all of the shots came out pretty well at the end. I had the choice to use a camera that was provided by the school, my own phone, or one of my teammate's phones to film, although I thought filming with the camera just because it would seem very cool I thought that if I filmed with my own phone it would ...

Title Design

The opening credits of the film will fade into the film and fade out, in the middle of the screen. Some credits, though few, will also fade into the scenes. For example, credits will fade in the left corner which would be the grass of the fair, or on the right of the top screen.  Working Title: The title of this film is likely to be “The Fun Fair”  It will be in a font called "courier" and it will be in all Caps: SOMETHING ALONG THIS STYLE. Titles will all fade into the film and also fade out of the film. All titles will disappear after 2 or 3 seconds but the main title will disappear in 4 or 5 seconds. Depending on the color of the scene I will be using black and white font. It will look something like this: FILMED BY: JENNIFER HERNANDEZ The first name of the person who holds the job will be 2 sizes larger than the rest of the words. FILMED BY: JENNIFER HERNANDEZ. This will also apply to the main title is will be 4 times the bigger size than the smaller titles.
