Production Blog: We finally recorded

Another day for a blog. We finally finished recording our film. When we came the house we started to get everything ready. For the first scene we got the drone ready to use to get an aerial shot for a scene. But when we took the drone out there was a slight problem, it wasn't charged. We probably should have checked before recording. That's on us. So we decided while we wait for it to charge we will record the second scene. I decided to record for pretty much the whole thing because I didn't have a suit to use to be a character so recording was gonna have to do it for me. We finished the second scene getting shots of the bad guys which went well. By the time we finished that the drone finished charging. Which was pretty surprising since we were charging for barely 20 minutes. So we went back to recording the first scene which was the most fun. Since I was flying the drone. Since everyone else are characters I had to drive which was cool. I got the shots and landed it successfully on the ground. The rest of the scenes were pretty easy though. It was just recording the president getting protected and the bad guys following. Overall was another cool experience to record. Next time I hope to be a character though. All right then see you.

 Today's the day I reveal the plan for our Short Film (name is still in the making). Im are going to include everything from schedules and dates to health and safety issues.    Schedule: going back into the past, I chose our pitch and solidified the basic plan for what we wanted our short film to be looking like. In December, we made the final decision on what genre we wanted (it was really a war between thriller and horror), and we started writing the screenplay. Finishing the screenplay in early January, we are currently writing this planning blog. Next, we will finish our storyboards and film our short film. Lastly, we are hoping to finish all of our editing in March.    Location: our story revolves around the house of the protagonist (can't give too much away), so we have decided to use Jibril's residence. The house fits the plan perfectly, with all the rooms and locations of interior and exterior matching up with our screenplay. We all live in the same area...

Production Blog: Editing

 I'm aware that learning how to utilize iMovie will take some time and effort. I utilized a different piece of software and a different version of iMovie the last time I created a film project for school. But, regardless of the program I choose, the fundamentals of video editing remain applicable. I need to get comfortable with iMovie's user interface. Learning how to import media files, such as music and video clips, is part of this. I need to learn how to use a variety of tools, including the splitter, timeline, and trimmer. Using effects and transitions effectively can improve my project's aesthetic appeal. I also need to learn how to apply filters and change audio levels. Thank goodness, iMovie has a ton of features that can assist me in producing a project that looks polished. To learn the software, I first started with some simple internet lessons. My experimentation with various features and effects has been aided by my practice with sample film. I've com...
