Planning: Storyboard "Dear Mother"




A dysfunctional mother-daughter relationship is the subject of our short film. The first shot of the first scene is of the outside of a house, which sets the tone for Roxy and Ms. Jackie's home. The shot then moves on to the interior of the house. Roxy is shouted at by her mother about housework in the next scene, which is more focused on the performers' relationships. There is a close-up of food on the floor, which Roxy must clean up as part of her tasks. This scene shows her and her mother going back and forth. Her mother then goes to the bathroom in the next scene. Roxy receives a phone call from a friend, prompting Roxy to see her pal. The short film moves on to the next scene.This takes place in Emma's house, which is a friend of hers. They're in Emma's room, discussing Roxy's mother's treatment of her. The entire time they are chatting, this sequence is shot in two shots. Roxy receives a call from her mother, and her eyes begin to water. Emma's mother brings Roxy home later. The scene has now returned to Ms. Jackie's house, which was the first setting. Roxy is home alone and talking to Emma on the phone. Ms. Jackie then returns home and overhears Roxy making derogatory remarks about her to Emma. Then they have a verbal altercation, and Roxy flees. There are some dramatic noises in this scenario, such as hearing her run and whining. Emma's mother then takes her up from the park and the two have a brief talk in the car.

* I am not sure what is going on but my Microsoft subscriptions says I am not allowed to export and convert the storyboard to a video therefore I cannot upload it as a video. I also tried paying for a new account and it still wouldn't allow me to. I will have to try to adjust the problem as soon as I get to another laptop to see if I can try again and get different results.

Research: How to Make a Short Film

     This educational video gave me a better understanding of how to make our own movies. While viewing, I discovered that there were some topics I already understood, such as when they were discussing film making. However, the "How to Make a Short Film" video provided me with a wealth of new information that will aid me in the production of our short film. This video includes production and post-production advice from a film specialist. One point that stood out to me was when the expert said not to do it if you can't pull it off. Another suggestion is to play with the audience's emotions and minds. The expert emphasizes that it is either all or nothing, and that nothing should be done halfheartedly. This reminds me of the phrase "Go large or go home," which means "Go big or go home."      The film expert explanation reminded me of this statement because it indicates it's all or nothing. Adding needless elements to a scene because they appear t...

Filming: Actors #1 & 2

 So during the whole filming process after we decided who would be doing what, it was decided that Nishayla  and I would be the main characters to deliver the effects of the message implied I filmed a part of the scenes which is when the other two group members Rohanna and Idline played the part of the bully for Nishayla Actor #1. During that scene I wasn’t in the film because I had to film that specific scene while we put to get her the set and scene.  My job was to make sure that Nishayla was set in place while Idline and Rohanna waiting for my call to start the scene. I gave ideas on how to show that bullying was taking place and it ended with the idea that the bag was to be gone through as as an invasion of privacy and tossed everywhere were the contents in the bag while leaving actor #1 to pick up her belongings or what remains of them on her own while she sits there sad and lonely. This gives off her signs of having depression and suicidal thoughts. The camera used ...
