Production Blog: Editing Day 2



 So there was a hold up in the editing process for us. Seeing as when Idline gave Rohanna the SD card she took it out of its original casing. Not knowing it would be need to be inserted properly into the laptop for Rohanna to edit with ease we paid it no mind. Until Rohanna mentions the SD card would not fit properly. Fortunately though I was able to get most of the takes and email them to Nishayla.

So she was able to give it to Rohanna and help her do it that way instead of worry about the SD card. I was super nervous and worried we wouldn’t finish on time. Continuing it got done and everything was okay. I didn’t realize how much I could stress until it came time to edit everything. After fixing that we worked on cutting times and deciding what’s scene were most important to have. 

So while this was going on we wanted to add filters and other transition designs to provide better lighting and detailing in the film. The clips we had were really long so we hand to cut them into smaller portions and cut everything down to meet that 2 minute mark. With all the research we did adding the extras we need was easier than it was on the first day of trying to edit. The cross fade was inserted without issues. Since I did all the designs and work before sending it out to everyone it was done fine .

Previously I taught the girls how to upload an create videos on YouTube to allow that film to been show on our blogs. So I made sure everyone understood what to do on that part seeing as we would need to do it once more. When the editing was done every one was able to upload the final product with ease and no complaints.

Production blog: Multiple Exposure discovery

    So its been a while since the last update and things haven't gotten very far but there are some positives that have happened. We were able to pick a location that satisfied most of our needs with out the hassle of needing permission to film and be on park grounds. We thought to see if we could find more actors but it was harder than expected. Seeing as everyone would have to have their own transportation and our filming would have to fit into someone else schedule. This made it harder on us but we kept searching.       So we had someone but the plans ended up changing when that person was no longer available. We understood that sometimes circumstances change. So, now we are all just planning a day to set up and film. This consist of making sure we have the camera set and all phones charged. Also having battery packs for the camera ready.       We definitely can't forget mask for covid-19 protection. An lastly, its key to having a fir...

Commercial Blog: Nike Vs. Under Amour Grand Finale

 I thought I would be fine using the Nikkon D3200 camera as this laptop has an SD card slot but the problem I had was that my SD card didn't fit in the slot. During my editing is when I realize that I have another clothing brand appearing in the finished ad. So I took the opportunity the next day to tweak the film so that it finally shows the images of both brands in one to let others know that this is a collaborative promotion. The reason is that it allows a certain message to be shown in the ad. So from my imagination I was able to sum up a few last-minute moments and since one of the actors doesn't own anything from the Nike brand I made a little tweak to allow two different brands to co-exist in my ad.       The two brands I choose are Nike and Under Amour. I would leave it alone if I don't see the logo but I can recognize it on one of my actor's shirts while editing. I plan to dub or add music to the ad to make it fun while the ad continues. Each actor put ...

Genre Research: Romance & Drama

Romance is defined by intimate relationships. In some cases, there may be a twist but at the end the main point in films is about the pursuit of love. Romance is not only its own genre but can also be seen in other genres such as thriller, Comedy, Drama, etc. Common lighting usually seen in romance includes high key lighting in which makes the seen more cheerful due to the brightness and warm colored lighting to create an inviting and mellow mood. A close up shot is an example of camera angles that are seen in films.  It allows the audience to examine the characters face to see their feelings and emotions. Another common camera angle seen in romance films are over the shoulder shots. It captures the face expressions and body language. Common sounds heard in romance movies are usually diegetic and non diegetic. For example, a musical that has romance incorporated into it includes singing and it helps exaggerate the feelings the characters may have.  Sometimes there may be a sou...
