Production blog: Sebastian's House

Filming blog: 

All four of us, including myself, went out to film on Saturday, November 27th. Everyone showed up, and with the exception of Chad and Ethan, due to the fact that we were not in any of the previously filmed scenes, we all dressed in matching outfits. This time we started with scene 4, which was the continuation of me and Sebastian's stalking. I went near Sebastian's house this time because there were other communities nearby that we needed to use to bounce between different spots. After that, we decided to travel to a park to film scene 5. In this scene, Sebastian places his briefcase on a park seat and leaves it there while he attends to something else, while Chad hides behind a tree. Chad went for the briefcase in scene 6, and as you can see, Sebastian is discarding something he found in the palm of his hand A panning shot is what you'll find here. All of this took about 3 hours to film because the most difficult part was getting to the locations because we went everywhere to various neighborhoods and parks. Another issue we had was completing this before nightfall in order to make this our recording day with no issues. He attends to something else, while Chad hides behind a tree. Chad went for the briefcase in scene 6, and as you can see, Sebastian is discarding something he found.

Editing blog: Time before Sunset After we finished recording, I went to Sebastian's house so I could edit what we got so far. We used my laptop for this feat as it had all the other filming we had done the week before. So when I started editing, I immediately started to go through each video we made and started to see if they were good enough. I took multiple scenes so we could go back and look which one looked better to us. Once I found the ones that we liked best, I started cutting them to make them shorter by getting rid of all the other unnecessary parts found within. So once we got our video clips, I put them in the right order of whence we filmed. When we watched what we filmed so far, the whole video looked good, but we needed to make sure that our video had fit into the time frame because it was getting quite long. The editing process took around 20 minutes to get all the details sorted out.

Our group that consists of Chad, Sebastian, and I will feature the Nintendo Switch and all its features. Now our commercial will start with the iconic nintendo switch intro. This is found on all of nintendo switch's commercial intros. It lasts around 2 seconds so this will not take up any filming time that we need. The next panel is where we look at the nintendo switch game menu. This menu will have to showcase to the viewer what the games you can play. In this scene, we will also be entering a game and showing small gameplay. The third scene will show us playing a game together with the screen. This scene is meant to showcase how everyone can play together at the same time. This scene can also show a game being played and what to do which is promoting both the console and the game. The fourth scene will showcase what the game will look like when the console is in handheld mode. This mode is when the controllers are inside the console and its made to be able to play for one person....

Scene 1 - Non Diegetic Music plays: Carnival of Delight Drake (V:O) : Hey, my names Drake, and I'm a former gang member of the wire gang. It was a dangerous place for me, but my sister was the one who made me change my ways. She made me realize that violence isn't the answer to everything. Many call me weak and pathetic and some might even call me a traitor. However, I was the only one to break out the cycle of constant violence and endless regrets. I never expected it would come back to bite me. Diegetic Sound: Cell phone rings Drake: Huh, who could this be? Diegetic sound: Answers* Scene 2 - Drake: Hello.

Genre Choice

Based on the research we did for the blogs, we feel as though mystery will fit best for our movie. This genre really would climb as the film goes on. By the end of the film is where we find our solution or our ending. This inspired us as a whole as we are trying to create a film that has to do with suspicion. It would really draw the audience attention. I feel like our pitch really fits in with this genre. If in the future we would have to tweak it, it wouldn't be a problem. We weren't thinking to add dialogue at first as our idea, but it might be the thing that we need to add. As stated previously, the mystery genre has a decent popularity in films nowadays. The wide variety of aspects and work that goes into these films really brings it all together. Which further creates something that truly represents mystery. Some camera angles that correlate to mystery are close-ups. They also include medium close-ups. They also use dialogue when it comes to mystery to give the audience a...
