Overcast Ruined the Plans

 8 Ways Franklin, Tennessee Can Cure Your Rainy Day - Franklin, Tennessee

Today was supposed to be the second and last day of filming. As a running theme with this project, the schedule has been delayed again. When getting ready to shoot today, I had noticed some strange weather. While it was supposed to be sunny in Florida today, that was not the case. As previously shot on a different day, the weather must be the same and so must the setting. To be fair, the production does have some parts that are indoors, parts that do not rely on the setting. However, I had wanted to film these parts last for a couple reasons. One being that the actor in the film should look rugged and unkept by the time that the opening sequence reaches its end. The other being that we must look at the times of the shots. Since the opening sequence must be under two minutes, it would be desirable to plan out the shots in chronological order and time the next shot accordingly. For this reason, the schedule had to be changed yet again. Not to worry though, as stated before, this schedule was designed with room for error in mind. As I cannot control the predictability of the weather, these kinds of situations may be hard to avoid. However, with a good backup plan and a schedule that has leeway, unexpected challenges should pose little problem to this production. The issue of the stairwell still must be solved, so in the meantime, this may the next challenge to overcome in the production. The course of action for this issue will be to check the stairwell again, and see if the beehive is still there. This location is a hospital, so I suspect that the owner would have wanted to maintain a well-kept establishment. If the bees are no longer there, we can proceed with the original plan and film there. If they are not, I plan to have a backup location on standby for when this situation arrives.

Genre Research: Run

  "Run" is a movie that features a disabled teenage girl, running from her mother who kept her in isolation. This movie uses soft and low lighting, setting a dark, uninviting setting. It is common for thriller movies to have these things, due to their ability to drown out any form of happiness and make the scenes of the film unsettling. It is most noticeable by the audience because colors will be desaturated, environments will be dark, and shadows will carry a crucial part of the scene. I plan to use these features in my opening sequence, as it will help the audience ensure that this is indeed a thriller film. Also, with the premise of a loud noise, possibly a monster, occurring in the early scenes of the movie, my hope of creating an ideal environment for this premise will be accomplished by this camera work. Although I do not particularly like low lighting and desaturated colors, due to its foreboding presence, there are a few conventions of "Run" that I do enjoy....

Introduction

         My name is Jacob Pineiro, an eleventh grade student attending Fort Lauderdale High School. I have been interested in the film industry for quite some time now, and this is one of the reasons I enrolled in the AICE Media Studies class. While I do not intend to pursue a career in this industry, I have always found the film industry interesting for a few reasons. One of them being that, contrary to popular belief, editing and scene selection takes quite some time, and the "filming" process is not the entire production process. To me, film and media take an important role in everyday life. More important than most people think. To understand this more, I took AICE Media Studies. So far, in the class we have produced two projects, one a commercial, and one a music video. These have been the most academic experiences with film I've had, and I have learned many things about the production process. In this project, I hope to have the same experience. Although t...

Changes Made From My Film Review

Image
 In my last blog, I discussed the process of editing and revising my project. The rest of this process is still going to be explained, however I am going to use this blog to explain something I did recently. As I have discussed before, the opening sequence was reviewed by a friend of mine, and they were able to give me some insight as to how fix my film. With this blog, I would like to explain what I did to correct the issues that were found in my project. The rest of the editing process will still be explained, however I am excited to express the changes made to my project. The first issue that I had to correct was the audio. With the feedback given, I was now aware that my project needed to have the song placed in a different scene. This was an easy change, as I could just slide the song via drag and drop into the place I wanted to. Unlike the music video, there is not much use in lining up the scenes to the audio, so the song could be in whichever position I chose. After doing t...
