Filming together

-

    Today we filmed the scenes where the boy and the girl are hanging out and the part where they boy knocks on her door. Like I said previously, all my group members have busy schedules. luckily, Violet, her brother and I all do soccer for the school so we met up at my place afterward. right off the bat we started filming. We started with the "long ago" part which are the flash back scenes. This scene was 7 seconds so we split it up into 3 and 4. for 3 seconds Violets brother, Cole and I were walking/skipping on the sidewalk arms interlocked. for 4 seconds we were supposed to be talking but i noticed Cole stepped in dog poo so i accidentally started laughing and thats what we decided to use. The next scene we had to film was when Cole Knocks on my door and says the lyrics. for a costume change i let him borrow my hoodie and i used one of my own. We had to figure out how the song cut and that took a little while but then once we figured it out we had to re film the door scene like 3 times because I kept laughing. After that was just a text message scene and we face timed nicole on Violets phone while Violet filmed using my phone and Cole texted the lines "are we still friends". last was filming cole getting out of his car but we forgot the sweater in my apartment so i had to run back and get it. we finished all the filming today so last thing to do is edit.

Critical Reflection

  “Time For Dinner” the short film portrays imagination through a young child's eyes. Toys may just look like plastic things with no life to them to us now, but we did not always think that way. Adults once too would sit for hours at a time playing with those ‘plastic things’. Somehow, our brain was able to create a whole new world with characters we created, and sometimes we would forget the real world for a second. It seems as though no one truly recognizes or appreciates imagination, and that is exactly what I wanted to show with this short film.  My movie represents children's imagination and how things children see in everyday life can affect their mind. Society has become a scary world to live in and sometimes it is hard to shield the young generation from it. A parent could innocently be watching the news and a storyline of a dangerous crime can come on while their child is near. This new concept of crimes like theft, killing, and other things can cause a child to thi...

  CAMS:  There is no music video for our song choice, Are we still friends by Tyler The Creator, so we looked at his othe songs to do our research. We noticed a lot of usage of tracking shots. A character would be seen traveling from place to place. Also, the camera would pan across the landscape to show establishing shots a lot. There are also a lot of close ups and POV shots.  CLAMPS: The costumes are regular attire for the most part, nothing exactly special. Lighting depends on the scene, but a lot of his videos have an outside setting . As far as acting, we can see real emotion in all of the actors' facial expressions. The music is obviously the song in the background. Props used a lot were phones, food, and cars. The setting was generally outside, with a lot of nature, or inside with low depressing lighting because most of his songs are on the sad side.  SOUND: The sound is the song in the background, there are a decent amount of beat drops in Tyler The Creator'...

      For my group project some may say I got lucky. I get to work with my three other friends. This may not seem like the best idea but i know they are smart hardworking individuals. I will start with myself and my task in this project. I said in my intro that I have some talent in the artistry department so that will be my job. For the story board it is important that is is easy to understand with well drawn pictures.      S econd we have Mila, I met mila last year and which is surprising because of everything with COVID. she has a very intelligent mind and a good creative eye. this means she is our editor. When we need something taken out, special effects, sound effects etc we've got our handy dandy mila.                                                                ...
