Production Blog: Starting to Film

 Today I started to film. The first place I went was the beach. I picked the beach because it's the farthest from my house. I also picked to go there first because it required daylight to film. When I got to the beach I had to find parking. It was awful, the beach was packed. Eventually, I found a parking spot, parked, and grabbed the chair I needed out of the trunk. Then I headed over to the beach. I found a spot where not too many people were. Then I began to set my chair down right where the waves were coming up. Then I had to set up my camera. After I set up my camera I sat down and waited till the waves hit my feet. After a couple of different times, I finally got the shot I wanted. Then I stayed at the beach to relax for myself for a couple of hours. Then I got all my stuff packed up and headed back to the car. Around this time it began to be getting dark outside. So then I got in the car I set up my phone to get the car scene filmed. So I started driving while my phone was filming. Then headed home because I had to stop filming that day because it was so late. When I got home I put together all of my clips.

Movie Research: M3GAN

   1. What elements (Conventions) of the genre that you chose to base your final task on does this movie have?    M3GAN incorporates many elements that our group has chose to base our final task on. For one, it stars a lonely young girl, who seems to have lost everything. The movie seems to have the perfect amount of suspense, which will 100 percent be used in our project. Darker lighting was another thing that stood out during this movie, adding to the skeptical feeling of the audience. Our final task will be heavily based on all of these conventions, which M3GAN seems to incorporate well.    2. What elements (Conventions) of the genre did the movie have that you like?    Although M3GAN is a horror movie, it still uses comedy. Sometimes rather dark, but appealing to the audience as it reassures them that it is still something that they should enjoy. We are also a fan on how it has a deeper meaning than the one presented, which is how to deal with...

Filming Blog: Scenes 6-12

 Hey, blog I'm back. Today I filmed scenes 6-12. Today was my first day being on the other side of the camera. I was very excited and thrilled to be able to get some experience in being in a short film. My role is the killer/stalker of the protagonist. In the first scene, my character is in you see me lurking in the shadows as Rowyn is going on her run through the neighborhood. This scene was hard to film because it was hard to keep composure during this scene. But, we ended up filming this scene and moving on. I appear later on outside of Rowyn's window leaving a mark on her window. This scene was fun to film because we used fake blood and I had to submerge my hand in it. That was a weird experience but I'm glad I've been able to do things like that and try new things such as that. I was able to be very productive today because of collaboration with my group members. I am very proud of my group for being as productive as we were today. Today was by far the most demandi...
