Production: Changes made from Film Review


Today was review day! Me and my partner Riana reviewed the film over face time. We knew it would be easier this way. We weren’t nervous about getting out full result. This is because we knew that if anything looked wrong or somehow even deleted we said that we had time to go back and film. During this review I really saw this as a video for the first time.We had a lot of footage overall. We had some footage on her phone and on my phone. At first it was a lot go through because some clips were only 2 seconds long. Some scenes we filmed, and multiple seconds in someone messed up or we ruined the shot. This process was lengthy at times because of reasons like this. There was over 100 videos on my phone alone.Then we had to go through and watch and delete footage we didn’t like. This was easy at first. However it got more complicated when we had two different versions of a scene and we had to then agree which one we liked better. We pretty much agreed to keep the same clips and thought this was pretty fun and easy. After deleting the so -called junk footage and got our main scenes, we rewatched everything we choose to keep. After rewatching it we deleted a few angle shots as we thought out film would be too long. This was tough because we thought it was pretty much perfect but we had to edit a few things out. While watching we were laughing and loving what we recorded. Even though we had relief of being finished we knew had more to do and prove with the editing.

This includes a football, a volleyball, and many Nike sportswear items.    Costumes- A lot of our props are the costumes. Since Nike is a clothing brand, our commercial must have clothing props. All actors will wear a huge amount of Nike to represent the brand. Also, the actors will be running and performing athletic activities so show the durability and confidence of Nike.   Schedule-  On 09/24/21, we will create the outline for the commercial On 9/24/21, we will create the drawings(storyboard) for the commercial On 10/06/21, we will film and decide which cuts and shots we need to take On 10/08/21, we will edit and add music and the logo at the end of the commercial.  On 10/10/21, we will finalize the commercial and submit.       Location- Our location will be the track field and the gym.

Title Research: Gattaca

1.  How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film?  Which ones?     There was a total of 18 title scenes, 20 including the two quotes at the very beginning. It started with the quotes then went to the main production company(Columbia), the production, who the film was by, finally the cast. They showed two cast members then the main title, Gattaca, then the rest of the cast. It is assumed that the two first cast members listed are the main actors. Then finally, the other important people that added to the film at the end. 2.  What connotations do the images carry?  ( how  do you they make you feel) The imaging at the start is most just blue screen. It shows something falling and bouncing around in the background. Then at the end you can see a main shaving his beard. The movie is starting at the end of the title sequence. The imaging at the beginning make me feel wonder as to what's going to happen and leave me suspenseful because they don't give you a lo

Had so much fun!

Finally! We finished the music video. It was a lot of hard but fun work. I don't think the final result is perfect but it really has effort. I believe that my production skills have increased. This is because I have done two major projects at this point. I feel like editing and producing the music video was different from a commercial. The music video was much harder and in depth. I enjoyed filming the commercial more because it was more spontaneous and integrate. My favorite part of making pieces like the commercial and the music video, is the filming part. I feel like I am best at this side of production. My weak side is editing. I have never edited before this year. I still find it very hard and frustrating. I have learned a lot from my teammates and I am happy I am with them. With the music video I feel like we were creative however stayed within the Ice Cube vibe. I like when we made a scene of the actor eating breakfast while it came up in the lyrics. Overall filming is somet
